▄▓▄ Release Notes ▄▓▄
▀ ▀
This latest release in a recent outpouring of
creativity from Italy's master of organic
drones is possibly the most unique in this
artist's long career as a sound sculptor.
While most of his recent releases on his own
Hic Sunt Leones label have been
collaborations, this is his first solo effort
since the release of the 10 inch vinyl Aurea
Hora. As the elaborate Renaissance style
artwork on the cover suggests, this music
points in the direction of a more "classical"
sound insofar as the utilization of Gregorian
style chants. These are successfully
incorporated into Musso's customary drones
comprised of field recordings, acoustic
instruments, and electronic processing,
giving this disc a particularly reverent
ambience. Don't think Enigma or Delerium,
because as one listens to this they may be
inclined to bow their head and meditate or
pray rather than nod or chill. I imagine that
if today's sound recording abilities were
available during those times evoked by the
artwork or chants, they too would have then
added the organic elements that Alio Die
does, creating a balance of both the heavenly
and the earthbound. Fans of his music may or
may not find this approach a departure from
what they are accustomed to, but it is
certain that this artist is going beyond his
previous huge body of work to encompass a
broader sonic pallette.
