Algidi vapori sintetici, che legano e fagocitano ruvide schegge risonanti estratte da differente materia, assumono la forma di due lunghe peregrinazioni attraverso territori plumbei su cui aleggia una rarefatta luminosit\u00e0. Sono cinematici tragitti verso l\u2019ignoto, mutevoli immersioni in un universo in cui si indaga l\u2019essenza della materia, paesaggi silenti eppure carichi di strisciante tensione, rivelata dal susseguirsi di frammenti crepitanti e sinistri stridori.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Un viaggio sensoriale vivido e coinvolgente, costruito e diretto con maestria, un\u2019esplorazione fatta di scavi ed annessioni, di scontri e dissipazioni, che si chiude con un ultimo breve riverbero che dopo tanto vagare restituisce la misura di un grande, indefinito vuoto dove ci si ritrova ancora immersi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sowhatmusica.wordpress.com\/2020\/09\/03\/deison-substrata\/\">LINK<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SUBSTRATA ON VITAL WEEKLY 1249<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>I started with Cristiano Deison&#8217;s &#8216;Substrata&#8217; release and his three pieces (side A has two parts) is a collection of recordings from outside and inside in various locations, using prepared tapes, metals, strings, wires and electronics. It works out in two different ways; on the first, the two parts of &#8216;Terra Firma&#8217; it is all about these transparent drones of what could be a bow upon Tibetan bells, singing overtones and such like. This piece is a slow builder, starting from the depths of the earth, rising to a massive drone, with loads of rumbling of acoustic sounds, left, right, above and beyond. &#8216;Prima Materia&#8217;, the long piece on the second side is much more obscure. Here we find a lingering drone, pushed to the background, but always being a presence in the music. Upfront there are small sounds, the cracking of stones, shells, the stumbling upon a wooden floor, or door that squeaks. It is an intense piece of music; I was half-half expecting something extreme to happen (as in a horror film) but it didn&#8217;t and instead, it was all about the subtle movement and displacing of sound. &#8216;In Vacuo Momentum&#8217; is a short afterthought of just a single dark drone and some acoustic sounds. All of this sounds pretty mysterious and spooky, and I love it very much.

Io stesso lo conosco relativamente poco: \u00e8 un peccato perch\u00e8 devo dire che si tratta, a mio avviso, di un artista \u201cunderrated\u201d. Originario di Udine Deison \u00e8 un cultore di musica rock e sperimentale ed \u00e8 stato anche dj in una radio locale diffondendo artisti di avanguardia. Ha suonato anche con Teho Tehardo nel gruppo Meathead e vanta inoltre collaborazioni con John Duncan, Thurston Moore, Maurizio Bianchi, Gianluca Becuzzi e K.K. Null. Deison a un certo punto viene folgorato dalla musica elettroacustica, elettronica, ambient ed industrial. In particolare rimane influenzato dai primi Coil (quelli di&nbsp;<em>Scatology<\/em>&nbsp;e&nbsp;<em>Horse Rotorvator<\/em>) e dai lavori di Nurse With Wound. Ma sullo sfondo della sua musica si stagliano nettamente le figure di Brian Eno e Harold Budd. I suoi primi lavori sono nel solco di un noise e di un power electronics artigianale molto ruvido. Ma dopo questa prima fase si dedica alla musica dark-ambient. Il suo nuovo album&nbsp;<em>Substrata<\/em>&nbsp;\u00e8 esemplificativo del suo metodo compositivo. Si tratta di un disco composto da 3 tracce estremamente minimali e immobili che riguardano la tematica dello sconosciuto e dell\u2019innominabile nel solco di una nuova estetica nera e weird quella, per intenderci, di cui parla Eugene Thacker in&nbsp;<em>Fra le ceneri di questo pianeta<\/em>. In \u201cTerra Firma\u201d ascoltiamo lente evoluzioni di drones ciclici che ci immergono in una dimensione acquatica. \u201cPrima Materia\u201d \u00e8 ipnotica, caratterizzata da un drone lugubre e cosmico con rumori e battiti che rendono l\u2019atmosfera quasi orrorifica. La conclusiva e breve (circa 2 minuti) \u201cIn Vacuo\u201d chiude in maniera in apparenza meno minacciosa questo enigmatico lavoro. Se amate la \u201cdeep music\u201d, i Coil cupi e cosmici di&nbsp;<em>Time Machines<\/em>&nbsp;e&nbsp;<em>Astral Disaster<\/em>, un disco storico come&nbsp;<em>Stalker<\/em>&nbsp;di Robert Rich e Lustmord e in genere prediligete le ambientazioni profonde e immersive di sicuro qui troverete pane per i vostri denti.&nbsp;<em>Substrata<\/em>&nbsp;esce in un\u2019edizione limitata di 300 copie in vinile verde.
