about

Released on cd-r by Chocolate Monk
chocolatemonk.co.uk

"Created from “voice, objects, instruments, tapes, electronics, etc.” this is a highly perplexing and unfathomable trawl through sound-episodes of great absurdity and surprise…we never really understand what we’re hearing, how it’s made, or what it means, but it’s impossible to stop listening…here, Ezio Piermattei doesn’t deal in loud noise or shock tactics, and the album is quiet, acoustic, mysterious and just plain strange throughout. But it’s also delivered in a very “clean” manner, by which I mean he doesn’t appear to be transforming his sources much through distortion, or passing the sounds through effects, although there is much tape manipulation (wrong speeds); most of the craft and genius appears to reside in recording, selection, layering, and assembly. The use of recorded voices and spoken word is very effective, and hearing a recognisable human element helps prevent the music from becoming overly abstracted. Speaking of voices, we should also mention the vocal contributions of Nonna Lea and Mamma Emilia, who are apparently photographed on the cover. One look at the front cover is enough to convince you that there’s surrealism and poetic beauty to be found in most domestic situations, though it’s rare there’s a photographer on hand with the skills to capture it."
