tebbisimo
What a surreal experience. Instantly transported into an infinitely glitching coin slot machine in an arcade, before being transported into the evolution of a creature that seems to gain mass as it slowly sucks everything into it growing ever larger, stretching and stretching....
Well worth lying in a dark room for.
A discreet but essential figure in the field of musical creation, Horacio Vaggione has been crafting an ambitious, precise and highly significant body of work for over the last fifty years, coupled with a demanding research activity. This disc offers four purely electroacoustic pieces which illustrate, each in their own way, this singular and fascinating grammar developed by Horacio Vaggione, a complex but fertile grammar which establishes a very special relationship between structure and texture, between matter and formula, to create a fascinating musical space, made up of polyphonies and metamorphoses.

Figure discrète mais incontournable du champ de la création musicale, Horacio Vaggione tisse depuis plus de cinquante ans une œuvre ambitieuse, précise et d’une grande probité, doublée d’une activité de recherche exigeante. Le présent disque propose quatre pièces purement électroacoustiques qui illustrent, chacune à leur manière, cette grammaire singulière et fascinante développée par Horacio Vaggione, grammaire complexe, mais fertile, qui noue une relation très particulière entre structure et texture, entre matière et formule, pour créer un espace musical passionnant, constitué de polyphonies et de métamorphoses.

Beautifully recorded sounds burn and splice into existential drones throughout. Both pieces build a unique sound world with their own set of logic and rules. Wonderful killtime
