2CD - Xi
Extremely dilated drones, sounds obtained by modulating bagpipes in suggestive tonal harmonies, warm, tangled in the melancholic spires of the serial envelopes, often crossed by inscrutable side variations. It's an album of pure simplicity and grace, an ideal meditative background with its spatial dynamics, recorded in some cases without masking ambient sounds out or (in the second CD), dedicated only to electric and acoustic guitar manipulations, starting from old recordings on tape, reassembling the original sequences in a different key and composing the beats into a new form. The accumulation of layers and improvised elements provokes a cognitive estrangement, restless yet delicate and long-lasting, just as in the first group of tracks.
