CORTINI, ALESSANDRO & MERZBOW - same

Format: do-LP Label & Cat.Number: Important Records IMPREC431LP Release Year: 2017 Note: after the highly successfull "modular synth" albums A. CORTINI collaborates with MERZBOW, both performing on a vintage EMS Synth, a British machine from the early 70's; "The result is a retching, sputtering beast of a record wresting jittery animations of white noise and spooling oscillators into chaotic briar patch of pure analog synthesis making the machine wail, buckle and cough up its least salubrious secrets in four extended parts." [Boomkat] black vinyl ed. Price (incl. 19% VAT): €32.00 More Info Alessandro Cortini (Nine Inch Nails) and Japanese noise legend Massami Akita (Merzbow) share a mutual love for the EMS Synthi, a British synthesizer from the early 70's notorious for it's patch matrix, portability and distinct tone. Astonishingly, these two disparate artists meld into a single sound as they flex the analog circuitry of the EMS Synthi in new ways; giving this classic synth a modern workout and proving that, in capable hands, a 40 year old analog synthesizer is a tool for the ages.
