Release Notes:
Edition of 100 copies.
I'm told that most soundwork by Alessandro Fogar is for sound installations, but this new
release on S'Agita (he has some CDR releases on his own) has seven pieces that are not
connected to any installation. The transmutations mentioned are all related to chemistry
connections (Pb 82, FE 26 etc.) and all last seven minutes exactely. Fogar uses field
recordings and computer processing for them. All pieces can best be described as dark
ambient music - closed, densely layered pieces of music of dark atmospheric hummings.
It fits the dark edges of the Hypnos label, Vidna Obmana and Steve Roach. Strong pieces
of hermetically closed music
