FRANCESCO GIANNICO - L'immagine di Me, Lontano CD
Release date September 23, 2023
Timeless sounds merge into a singular experience,
giving birth to "L'Immagine di Me, Lontano," where timeless samples,
devoid of memory, reimagined through the constant employment of granular
synthesis, blend with echoes of distorted strings and distant pianos.
Sounds excerpted from the sonic fabric of the world metamorphose into
fragments of emotions, suspended between reality and imagination.
The
recordings, rich with unknown atmospheres, unveil their deepest essence,
revealing a hidden language that transcends human comprehension. This
is an album made by drawing on multiple sound materials that were
reworked and layered with extreme care over the course of a year and a
half. The goal was to achieve a rich sound composed of multiple layers
that maintained the dynamics and uniqueness of timbre of the various
instruments and sounds used.
From time to time, the use of soundscapes
came in handy, such as in the form of reworked recordings or transformed
into actual instruments. But the particular use of reverb also created a
fourth dimension, linking all the elements into a more organic
production. The resulting acoustic image was meant to be a memory of my
childhood. That's why sometimes you will hear harder, more melancholy
tracks and sometimes freer, more out-of-the-box tracks. This exactly
represents my current situation, that of a 43-year-old father with a
midlife crisis, a bloody boomer basically :)
Limited edition of 200 copies in 6-panel digisleeve.
