| Description : | Coming in a 7in sleeve with book
What's being played in here? The traditional plebeian music preferred by us young Mediterraneans: trap, rebetiko, and punk. There's no trace of ethnic or world music—we're still all on the same planet, despite Sun Ra, and ethnicity is just the sugarcoated version of race. This is why you'll find baroque music into drill, hardcore meanders through bouzoukis, and the bendir is as powerful as an 808. We plebeian servants oftechnofeudalism don't care what our master's name is: we just want to make him choke on his dinner and go eat something that tastes like home, not slavery. We take the instruments we play as we please and bring out what has broken our hearts today, yesterday, and in the last couple of years.Artificial intelligence (oxymorons be damned) as a capitalist nightmare; Gaza, but above all the last 100 years of cruelty against the Palestinian people (remember how Harraga began 6 years ago?); Jin, Jîyan, Azadî every day, even for your mother; fascism, which recently celebrated its centenary; public ordercontrolled by companies that produce surveillance drones, and social policies of every persuasion drawn from the worst dystopian novels of the 20th century.I composed and played everything myself, but that would mean I was always right, so I invited a few like-minded people to challenge me. In some cases, the pieces were so shaken up that they changed radically (like from electronic drums improvisation to lullabies with distorted ney and turntable scratching).I've been fortunate to have been associated with Mat Pogo since 1994 (also thanks to my 18 years of participation in the Jealousy Party). Silvia Falugiani is one of the folk musicians of the Valdisieve, and it's always a pleasure to hear her sing away from the stage and microphones. Renato Cordovani is one of thegreat improvisers (and beyond) of the Florence area, and like Marshall Allen, he didn't record an album until he was 70 (which is wise). Piero Spitilli has been a longtime companion (Squarcicatrici, Tsigoti, Achref Chargui Trio, Giacomo Sferlazzo, and a thousand other adventures). Andy Brown has been involved inindependent music for thirty years: he's currently in Paint and Copter, but I asked him to dust off the synth he used with Jessamine for this album; Giulia Bari, Carla Mulas Gonzales, and Giorgio Gadotti are the beating heart of Nubras, a young and determined band specializing in Bulgarian music (but also tango,classical, and Balkan music). Knowing that I was passionate about her writings, Louise Michel agreed to play the cello parts during a very turbulent séance (the poltergeists were kept at bay thanks to a powerful compressor).Winks: Starfuckers had already explained it well in the 90s, La République du Sauvage had expanded on it in the 2000s, today I'm updating it as a reminder. And Virginia Magidou understood a century ago how things would end with Mussolini, the tragicomic operetta returns as a tragic farce with Meloni andSalvini (it even rhymes, so it must be true).Let's go back to the beginning: images for mostly instrumental compositions. Gigi Fagni, hc bass player and international tattoo artist, produced the cover image as usual without any guidance from me (as somebody once said: when you pass the ball to Maradona, you don't tell him what to do with it). Squaz andStefano Zattera did the same. Erik Tomasi created about ten large linocuts for the project; Shane de Leon (Miss Massive Snowflake, former Rollerball and manager of Kirk's Grocery in Billings, Montana) is exploring new painting techniques and sent me a handful; Marta Alacevich lives nearby and, paradoxically, is the only contributor to this album I've never met in person (so far!)!And at the end of it all, without even hearing a note, Marco Pandin and Hector Valmassoi helped me dealing with the real world. They don't want to be considered a record label (but I think you have an idea of what stella*nera has been doing over the past 40 years), but they were damn good at putting all the pieces together, right down to the choice of paper at the printer. | |
