Il lago è il cielo del bosco e tutte le rane cantano in coro originally released on tape for Ruego in 2022 and now remastered for viny…

First time meeting of Sam Wenc (US/pedal steel + objects) and Stefano Grasso (Milan/percussion + recorder). The record is one take, broken into 10 tracks, exploring the boundaries of the rhythmic grid, never quite landing inside it, but hovering on its perimeter, through extended technique, melody, and disharmony.

Their materials and working methods differ significantly, with Ielasi havi…

We're all sitting here and no one's listening. We're just talking over each other while the world spins out of control. Who are you gonna believe if the walls were gone? If everything turned up empty fields? Us just standing around looking at each other and nothing blocking us or protecting us from each other or from ourselves. I'm at war with myself first. Let …
Beingness
''Beingness is the source of inspiration which moves silence towards its manifestations as form in sound. Each gesture animates in the infinite space between thought and non-thought awareness. The fluidity of spontaneous sonic projections reflect the esssential being of nature, which is change'' - Adam Rudolph ''A voyage from the Corner to the Cosmos.

Hyperboréen
With Hyperboréen, we set sail for a dreamy, fantastical North, where the cold and the distant call for contemplation. Six other musicians accompany us on this journey. This strong atmosphere of mental and literary images resonated with the recording - isolated in the heart of the Puisaye countryside - of the six tracks on the album. The sounds of the instruments are deconstructed and reassembled in a process akin to electroacoustic editing, while they are joined by sounds from elsewhere, produce…
