OUT NOW: Vittorio Guindani — Materia Breve

Vittorio Guindani — Materia Breve
CD (6 panel Digisleeve) + Digital

"Materia Breve" is composed of residues. Fragments of field recordings; still images of small landscapes, enlarged to show their grain. The simple gesture of gathering what remains, stirring the embers.

VITTORIO GUINDANI (b. 1969) is an Italian non-musician interested in silence, soundscape and small sounds, which he creates with objects, loops and anything endowed with its own dust. He has collaborated with contemporary dance companies and several artists including video makers, illustrators, choreographers, theatre directors and musicians. In 2020, Guindani released his debut album "Jisei" for 901 Editions.

CD (6 panel Digisleeve) + Digital
“It forms slowly, through the refraction of light. It penetrates and breaks it down, radiating the listening space among the windows oriented to the spring sun. Oblique plates, breath and transparencies. Stillness. Sound prisms.” Artwork by Simone Negri, “Accadimento 63” (2020).

OUT NOW: Ben Vida + Marina Rosenfeld • Renato Grieco + Bruno Duplant

Ben Vida + Marina Rosenfeld — Leaving
CD + 8pp Booklet + Digital
‘Leaving’ is the artists’ meditation on the absence and presence, fragmentation and drift of our present reality — “a strange dialogue, dreaming of each other through communication of another order… (François Bonnet on ‘Vertice’)”

Renato Grieco + Bruno Duplant — La Disparition
CD + Digital
Inspired by Georges Perec's lipogrammatic novel “La Disparition”, written without the use of the letter e. The music score and its interpretation reflect constraint as a process.
