Interplay (vinyl LP)

Massimo Carozzi, Sandrine Nicoletta - Interplay (vinyl LP)
Interplay is performed by five singers, from tenor clef to treble clef, recorded in different places at different times. Each singer had not listened to what the others had recorded before.
They actually did not sing words, but produced sounds, reacting to the voice on certain situations given by the author.
Afterwards the five tracks have been combined together into a single track. The final result is an interplay of voices, an abstract sonorous space, disembodied.
After meeting and clashing with each other, following settled lines and routes, the voices become pure sound.
Interplay comes in white vinyl 12", housed in a mirror cardboard sleeve designed by Nicola Chemotti Beutel and printed by Legno.
