Auraltone is proud to announce our new release – Minimal Way by Cometa (aka Angelo Secondini). Angelo is an Italian composer/performer, and has this to say about his music:
There are things that have deeply influenced me; some of these things are located in a novel by J. G. Ballard titled “The Drowned World”. The novel is at its core about a process of regression to a primal dimension of existence. In a philosophical sense, I understand this process as stripping a strata accumulated (often useless and misleading) in the evolution of human society, from the musical point of view as outrage, and a consequent simplification of musical structures. The purpose of this process is to achieve an essential dimension, an essential form, a point of departure. “Live” because “Minimal Way” is a recording of a small performance (music + images) last year in a tiny club in my hometown. The main element of the work is the water, the source of life, the amniotic fluid. I think one of the worst sins of modern society is to have created a barrier between man and his natural state.
