Anciana SD032 by Tonylight of LepLoop Featuring the Arpopone+Multicassa+0coast




English translation below.

“L’estate scorsa in montagna ho registrato circa 90 brani live, a mo’ di improvvisazione jazz ma elettronica, diciamo, utilizzando due dei nostri strumenti lep: 3

Leploop Multicassa e un Arpopone, più qualche effetto. Mi sono volutamente limitato nel set up per rimanere più concentrato e creativo. Poi verso fine 2019 ho chiesto all'amica Philippa Nicole Barr di operare una selezione delle 90 tracce. Giornalista freelance australiane di Wire di base a Sidney che avevo conosciuto a Milano nel 2012 per un’articolo sulla scena musicale sperimentale milanese, Philippa mi sembrava la persona più adatta per aiutarmi in questa impossibile selezione, anche stimolato dalla sua lontananza da Milano.

Cosi Philippa ha selezionato 5\7 tracce io ne ho suggerite un'altro paio e alla fine ne abbiamo tenute 6.
Philippa mi ha suggerito di intitolare le tracce con qualche nome in italiano perchè all'estero sarebbero suonate piu' particolari, esotiche.

Cosi ho trovato i nomi di alcune erbe selvatiche commestibili che si raccolgono in Val Trompia, dove ho la casa e ho finalizzato le tracce. Anciana è il nome di un'erba selvatica commestibile in dialetto valtrumpino.
Poi Philippa ha chiesto ad un suo amico fonico australiano di fare il master, David Matthew, un produttore di musica elettronica che si fa chiamare anche B.I.N.T.

Poi ho chiesto all’amica Judy Rhum se le andava di pensare alla copertina. A Barnaba è piaciuto così tanto il tutto che, oltrea a farlo uscire per la sua etichetta Sangue Disken, ha confezionato pure un video per il il brano 'Farinel', tutto girato dalla finestra di casa di sua mamma, dove è bloccato dall’inizio del lockdown causato dal Covid-19.” (Tonylight, 2020)"

Googlish:

"Last summer in the mountains I recorded about 90 live songs, like jazz but electronic improvisation, let's say, using two of our lep instruments: 3

Leploop Multicassa and a Harpopone, plus some effects. I purposely limited myself in the set up to stay more focused and creative. Then in late 2019 I asked my friend Philippa Nicole Barr to make a selection of the 90 tracks. Australian freelance journalist from Sydney based Wire that I met in Milan in 2012 for an article on the Milanese experimental music scene, Philippa seemed to me the most suitable person to help me in this impossible selection, also stimulated by his distance from Milan.

So Philippa selected 5 \ 7 tracks, I suggested another pair and in the end we kept 6.
Philippa suggested that I title the tracks with some names in Italian because more particular, exotic sounds would be played abroad.

So I found the names of some edible wild herbs that are collected in Val Trompia, where I have the house and I have finalized the tracks. Anciana is the name of an edible wild herb in the Valtrumpino dialect.
Then Philippa asked her Australian sound friend to do the master, David Matthew, an electronic music producer who also calls himself B.I.N.T.

Then I asked my friend Judy Rhum if she wanted to think about the cover. Barnaba liked everything so much that, besides making it come out for his label Sangue Disken, he also made a video for the song 'Farinel', all shot from his mom's home window, where he is blocked from the beginning the lockdown caused by Covid-19.

  1. Wasn't there a Soundcloud link up there before? There's space for one.

  2. I see. If you drag the text cursor over the blank space, one otherwise invisible hyphen stands out, and if you click that, Bandcamp tells you Sorry, this track or album is not available. Everything is going weird these days. Curiouser and curiouser. I have often seen a cat without a smile, but I have never before seen a smile without a cat.

  3. Reaching out to Tony to find out what happened. It was up when he sent it in. I checked the link he sent me to make sure the error wasn't on my end and it also no longer works. I'll update the post when I hear back.
