Lettera 22 is a project of Riccardo Mazza and Matteo Castro, hailing from northeast Italy, a region riddled by ravines and sleepy villages. For Blue Telepathy they edited concrete sounds, field recordings, analog instruments and tape manipulations into 4 textured compositions, drenched in tape hiss and interrupted by waves of distorted electronics. At the peak of their powers, the duo created a true sense of space and a hauntingly sensorial, immersive shadow world, where ghosts seem to come alive. A desolated landscape where distant traces of rhythm suggest the interaction of machines. No healing or processing, just flashbacks and fading memories.
Lettera 22 stands tall at the intersection of the many different realms of experimental music and sound art. Uncompromising, with an eye for detail and a commitment to quality. Each release a perfect demonstration of their technical skills, building up a simmering tension while keeping a tight grip on the complex, dynamic mix of ambiance and sound.
