Sinestesia
*2023 stock. 100 copies limited edition. one sided sandpaper disc with three-fold insert & download code* Sinestesia (synesthesia) is a perceptual phenomenon in which stimulation of one sensory or cognitive pathway leads to involuntary experiences in a second sensory or cognitive pathway. This concept lays at the foundations of this compilation, the idea of collecting a whole spectrum of evocative, multi-sensorial music along with a sandpaper representation of a record, ideally thought to enhanc…
Judaean Desert
*2023 stock. 150 copies limited edition* Body of Reverbs is a performative sound-art collective project focusing on the tattoo practice – created and curated by Michele Servadio. Its intent is – through the live sound manipulation of the performance – to develop a new language and override the canonic tattoo imagery, and to ultimately give back a deeper, cathartic meaning that will resonate (or rather: reverb) both on the subject and the audience. Abandoning all the aesthetic dogmas, the tattoo …
Syrian Edge
*2023 stock. 150 copies limited edition* Claudio Rocchetti succeeds in sublimating incoherent masses of noise and excerpts of daily routines: reinterpreting these acoustic signals through tape manipulation, he crafts sonic matter unheard before and yet somehow familiar, like ghosts from the past resurfacing from white noise, reflections on the mirror of memory, stratified into new euphonic languages.
Syrian Edge is the first act of Panorama – a triptych investigating the work of Claudio Rocchett…
Island Within An Island
*2023 stock. 150 copies limited edition* In the second act of Panorama, Claudio Rocchetti idealize self-discovery, embarking on a journey through a land once thriving and now stripped of every meaning.
Like a silent observer, he wanders through the meanders of a pale and intangible non-place, witnessing the residual memories of an urban cemetery: abandoned and decrepit structures, whose skeletons remain as a symbol of a lost daydream. Imperceptible frequencies of deafening silence leak the image…
Thy Eyes, The Betrayal
*2023 stock. 150 copies limited edition* Thy eyes, the betrayal is the third and final chapter of the Panorama trilogy by Claudio Rocchetti. A narrating voice leads the way through the rooms of an imaginary museum, an idealized path through life. Similarly to an endless crescendo, the ambience gradually becomes emptier. Distant voices and noises fall far away, out of reach. The choir becomes silent, solitary.
Memory binds past and present together, certainly influenced by the surrounding environ…
Ghost Or White Pavilion
*100 copies limited edition* Timber Rattle has always been mysterious and seclusive. In the past decade, the southwest Virginia-based music project has released an impressive number of cassettes, CD-Rs, LPs and digital-only recordings – sometimes overlapping with other monikers/projects that explore different depths of the same aural spectrum – yet they have managed to stay in the shadows, not prone to share more than necessary. This intimacy is also mirrored in the music: shamanic, meditative a…
