DEISON / KK.NULL : INTO

(CD SILENTES MINIMAL EDITIONS SME0931) pubblicato dalla label Silentes.

Per festeggiare un lustro di attivita', la Silentes Minimal editions di Stefano Gentile ha curato un monumentale box limitato con tredici nuovi albums e vari bonus. Tra i cd, disponibili anche singolarmente, si segnala la collaborazione italo-nipponica di Deison e KK Null in "Into", raccolta di preziose texture, loops e astrazioni elettro-rumoriste, combinando glitch e registrazioni sul campo con la grazia di origami cibernetici in continua, simmetrica metamorfosi. (V.Baroni, "Rumore"217)

KK Null, tra le massime istituzioni dell'area sperimentale del sol Levante, ha approntato con un'altro, a questo punto, veterano, il nostro deison, una collaborazione a distanza concretizzatasi in "Into". L'album ha partenza eccellente con la cupa "In", colma di inquietanti presagi e non tradisce la suddetta premessa con l'assai elevato spessore della drammatica e ascendente "Alone", del loop trance di "intramuscolo", della malcelata profondita' romantica di "Not fade away", degli ondeggiamenti cosmici di "Beyond", della visionaria "To" che con baluginii cristallini ha il compito di chiudere l'alchemico circolo, uniti in una persistente sensazione di continuativo tragitto recata da glitch che pressoche' costantemente si agitano sullo sfondo come creature aliene che attraversano le invisibilita' tra un brano e l'altro. (7/8) (P.Bertoni-Blow Up,n.141)

Penetrating “Hi-tech” music, always on the border between sound, silence and noise... Splinters of sonic fragments, buzzings, electronic hisses, pulsations, hypnotic loops, ambient textures, sudden rays of light... A kaleidoscope of syntethic sounds and digital glitches, in a universe dominated by binary codes, that evolves through the cold-hearted control of sophisticated algorhythmic mutations programmed by human entities that already reached a level beyond the borders of our earthly knowledge...

Meticulously put together over the last twelve monts by italian electronic/noise artist deison and japanese avantgarde polymath KK Null, Into is a borderline ambient synthesis of processed sounds and electronics that ultimately does little to bolster the back catalogue of either partecipant. A series of pieces created from layer of digitally manipulated loops, field recordings, tapes and undisclosed sonic sources,....!!! (A. Carden -RockARolla,feb.10,n.24)

Quite an extended part of the work of KK Null deals with collaborations, such as with Z'EV, Alexei Borisov, Zbigniew Karkowski, Jim O'Rourke and loads more. His primary instrument was once the drums (as with his bands Zeni Geva and Absolute Null Punkt), but in these collaborations Null deals with electronics. Here he teams with a man who met him fifteen years ago, when he was setting up concerts for Zeni Geva in Italy: Deison. He has worked with Lasse Marhaug and Sshe Retina Stimulans and ran the Loud! label. They collaborated, I guess, through mail, sending back and forth sound material. If you'd expect some heavy noise based stuff, then you are mistaken about the work of Null (and perhaps of Deison too, but I must admit I don't know his work that well). It moves these days from brutal noise attacks to very clean, mild, almost ambient like works and this work is a fine example of that. The closing piece is 'To' and quite brutal, feedback like. In the nine pieces before this we have been on a great journey of electronic music. Always abstract, always electronic, but almost never the same thing twice. From soft passages to loud ones, from clicking, rhythmic sounds to dense fields of waving electronics. Its all there. A great variety is presented here, which for once doesn't stand in the way: this remains a very coherent release. It may not appeal to the pure noise heads, but it should broaden their mind a little bit, I guess. Great one. (FdW,Vital Weekly 716)
