Vien da pensare \u2013 pi\u00f9 o meno lecitamente \u2013 a Hildur Gu\u00f0nad\u00f3ttir o allo svizzero Zeno Gabaglio, ma anche a Richard Skelton. La mano di Deison, al di l\u00e0 del paio di nomi buttati sul tavolo per provare a delimitare il territorio musicale, avvicina tutto al drone e lo lascia scabro e distante dalla melodia. L\u2019idea di partenza (<em>cayendo<\/em>, cadendo,&nbsp;<em>sprofondando<\/em>\u2026), del resto, mal si legherebbe alle declinazioni pi\u00f9 scontatamente emotive del violoncello, anche se da un altro punto di vista non si assiste nemmeno a un continuo atto di violenza su di esso (restando nel 2013 basta sentire che succede al contrabbasso di The Ominous degli&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thenewnoise.it\/jacob-the-ominous\/\">Jacob<\/a>, in uscita per Utech). Di suo, del resto, il friulano sa benissimo scendere in maniera convincente sulle basse frequenze: qui basta sentire \u201cDesierto\u201d. L\u2019interazione con la controparte \u201cclassica\u201d, invece, gli permette di essere quasi \u201ccinematografico\u201d (nel corso di \u201cInstabile\u201d e della prima parte di \u201cTierra\u201d) oppure dissonante nella title-track e in \u201cIngestion\u201d, tutte salutari declinazioni del suono-Deison di partenza. Se ci si abitua alla generale \u201cseverit\u00e0\u201d di Cayendo e al suo non cercare mai facili appigli, allora \u00e8 proprio un bel viaggio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>P.S.: come abbiamo gi\u00e0 scritto, ormai parecchi anni fa Deison suonava&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thenewnoise.it\/teho-teardo\/\">assieme a uno<\/a>&nbsp;che travalica di molto i confini di questa webzine e che sembra amare parecchio gli strumenti ad arco, specie da quando si occupa di colonne sonore\u2026 saremmo curiosi di sapere che ne pensa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thenewnoise.it\/deison-galan-cayendo\/\">LINK)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">CAYENDO ON A CLOSER LISTEN<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Italy\u2019s&nbsp;<strong>Deison&nbsp;<\/strong>has been recording for decades, and is still experimenting with new ideas. &nbsp;He\u2019s never settled into a single mode of recording or focused on a single genre. &nbsp;This creative restlessness has worked to his advantage. &nbsp;<em>Cayendo&nbsp;<\/em>doesn\u2019t sound like any of Deison\u2019s last three albums (all reviewed here) except in parts. &nbsp;The string segments of \u201cDrone 11\u201d (from&nbsp;<em>Dead Man and a Skeleton Stag<\/em>) form the closest connection, but the timbre is completely different. &nbsp;While that piece bordered on the industrial, the new material lands squarely in the realm of modern composition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The difference this time around is made by Valencia cellist&nbsp;<strong>Sara Galan<\/strong>, who contributes evocative passages that are often looped but occasionally allowed to play through. &nbsp;The looping is less noticeable than one might think; because Deison alters the original sounds, repetition doesn\u2019t always sound like repetition. &nbsp;The press release even contains an evocative typo: &nbsp;<em>filed recordings&nbsp;<\/em>rather than&nbsp;<em>field recordings<\/em>. &nbsp;And why not? &nbsp;Deison files Galan\u2019s sounds down to a clean buff. &nbsp;By adding electronics, tapes, muffled voice and masked digestive noises, he creates something that is more than the sum of its parts: a deep composition in which every cello passage, even if initially improvised, sounds wholly intentional.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The album was inspired by the phrase, \u201cearth swallow me\u201d, and by thoughts of \u201cearth, sand, mud and desert\u201d. &nbsp;It\u2019s easy to make the connection; Galan\u2019s cello lurks along the base of a shallow pool, seeking to rise like the first amphibian. &nbsp;It\u2019s a slow, deliberate rise that leads to a gasping of breath, but the effect is ultimately triumphant. &nbsp;Her cello work favors the rising tension of the long draw, most apparent on the dramatic, percussive opener, \u201cInstabile\u201d. &nbsp;The disembodied skitterings that litter the landscape may be the cries of other creatures: &nbsp;<em>don\u2019t go, don\u2019t go.<\/em>&nbsp; In \u201cIngestion\u201d, Deison\u2019s additions are both brighter (high pitched, bell-like tones) and darker (stomach rumblings?).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The best is saved for last, as the album\u2019s longest and shortest tracks close the set. &nbsp;\u201cDesierto\u201d is as moody and forlorn as a parched man crawling toward an oasis. &nbsp;Deep reverberations form a sonic wall, as if in imitation of a rising sandstorm. &nbsp;Beeps and siftings serve as grit: sand in the eyes and doubt in the brain. &nbsp;When Galan\u2019s cello emerges early in the third minute, it presents the album\u2019s clearest tones. &nbsp;One can hear an invisible orchestra cueing up behind her. &nbsp;The brief \u201cScava fosse (barrio)\u201d completes the journey, recessing into a crackled loop; perhaps the oasis was merely a mirage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thenewnoise.it\/deison-galan-cayendo\/\">LIN<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/acloserlisten.com\/2013\/05\/07\/deisongalan-cayendo\/\">K)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DEISON\/GALAN (CD-R, Loud!, 2013) Cayendo by Deison | Galan Instabile Tierra part 1 Cayendo Ingestion Exo-fago Tierra part 2 Desierto Scava fosse (barro) \u201cOne meeting, one recording: 8 tracks.
