Listen to Sssseegmmeentss Frrooom Baaari
A collaboration between Trrma’, who is Giovanni Todisco (percussion) and Giuseppe Candiano (synth), and the American composer, performer and visual artist Charlemagne Palestine, this 2 track album brings their collective talent into an extremely unusual and artistic display of complicated dissonance.
“Segment 1” takes up the entire Side A with 21 minutes of aberrant noise as manipulated synth and percussion collide in hazy, blurred gestures of meticulousness that gets more ominous as the tune progresses.
“Segment 2” follows a similar path, where dissonance and eccentric rhythm unfold in intricate and unpredictable ways, as xylophones and more forceful percussion add to the abstract quality.
Certainly a niche listen, those with an ear for unorthodox ideas who truly appreciate the nuances of sound will be enamored with this really adventurous experience.
