Bio
Tony Buzzerio, aka The Additive, was born in 1985 in Alberobello - a little town southern Bari. In 2001 starts to play the electric guitar and to exhibit with his band: Sandy can Sound. Since his first experiences as guitarist, basically influenced by the sounds of Sonic Youth, Bauhaus and Velvet Underground; he is fascinated by the possibilities to create, combinate and modify the sounds. In 2004 he discovers the digital music and his first experiments begin. In 2006 moves to Rome and left his old band. In 2009 he founds the Pupazzi per Mary with 2 members of the old band, with them he plays live engaging to the digital sounds. So, today, he goes in for digital music. Because of the various musical influences (from electro to Rock, through minimal Techno and Drum'n Bass) his production follows aesthetic lines often contrasting each other.

[SOSEP032] The Shadows Say Goodbye

The second musical work of The Additive doesn't follow a definite line. With no presumption, it's placed above any kind of definition and classification of genre. The obsessive research for the groove is abolished by encouraging a continuous and indefinite soundflow. The whole album is based on the research on one side of concrete sounds which, through the sampling process, are transformed into the dense textures of No Way and Madness Draws Magic Axes, on the other hand synthetic sounds are created with digital or virtual synths (Killer Showdown , Hate). The use of the voice brings the tracks close to the song-form without taking any precedence over the whole, but taking action where needed to give momentum and different possibilities of escape. The Shadows Say Goodbye is the album of evasion in the higher and noblest sense, a return to the melody that pushes up touching our most hidden sides.
