   About Å
Å (which is the first and the last letter of some Scandinavian alphabet) is a young trio of musicians on violin, exotic percussions, theremin, guitar, synth and piano, who have created a remarkably original world of sound. Although one can hear occasional influences from kraut rock style and the early minimalism, this sound is uniquely Italian in its sense of sound, space and time. An imaginative, meditative, bizarre, courageous and nostalgic music consisting in spontaneous compositions and improvisations, lately arranged by Xabier Iriondo, and mastered by Giuseppe Ielasi - the result of four or five long free-form improvisations, resonating of minimal drones, largos for piano that sound like a raw Cilio, strange electrified noises, and percussive inventions. And much more.............................................................................. Å .. il nome di un trio di musicisti e polistrumentisti trentino-veneti che sono riusciti a creare un inusuale mondo sonoro partendo da strumenti tradizionali come violino, percussioni, chitarra e piano, con l'aggiunta di percussioni esotiche, synth e theremin. Sebbene l'ascoltatore pi.. attento possa rintracciare nella loro proposta influenze di krautrock e primo minimalismo (Tony Conrad e Faust in primis), oppure tracce di sperimentalismi pi.. o meno recenti, la musica degli Å rimane profondamente italiana in termini di suono, spazio e tempo. Intensamente personale, piena di immaginazione, a tratti bizzarra, nostalgica e coraggiosa allo stesso tempo, la musica di Å .. costruita a partire da composizioni spontanee ed improvvisazioni, in un secondo tempo arrangiate da Xabier Iriondo.

Il collettivo Improvvisatore Involontario sbarca per la prima volta a Roma con il suo progetto più ingombrante e rumoroso. Naked Musicians si propone al pubblico romano in occasione del lancio del suo terzo capitolo discografico: l’album Emiliano Culastrisce. Questo disco costituisce l'opera inaugurale per il nuovo corso grafico dell'etichetta catanese (ma ormai sempre più cosmopolita, con oltre 30 membri tra Roma, Bologna, Venezia, Udine, Parigi e New York), ma non è sola: Improvvisatore Involontario esce contemporaneamente con 3 nuovi prodotti.

Anche gli altri 2, ossia La commissione D'Ascolto - l'infuocato duello piano/drums che costituisce l'esordio di  War Duo (Marcello Di Lorenzo e Francesco Cusa), e Origins of Body Hammer - altra opera battesimale per un mix di elettronica e improvvisazione con Carlo Natoli, Francesco Cusa ed Emiliano Cinquerrui - saranno presentati all'INIT in anteprima in questa serata d'eccezione.

 

Ingresso € 5

Ingresso +  T-shirt di Improvvisatore Involontario € 10.

"3048", released by Farmacia901.
A dark, choking, psychotropic immersion into abstract isolationist electronics, floating among rumbles, drones, bleeps, glitches...like a trip into the deepest corners of an obscure unknown galaxy, lost forever and glad of it!
As always, everything is made with exclusive use of vintage equipment, no computers, no midi, no emulators…nothing can beat the sound of an unleashed vintage analogue synthesizer!!!

Limited edition of 212 copies.
Gatefold cover, black cd!
Price: 10 euros
Order info: info@farmacia901.com
