The meeting
between the Neapolitan “electro-acoustic noise” duo Aspec(t) and the
polish drummer Andrzej Zaleski aka Zalaski happened in Warsaw in April
2012, during Aspec(t)’s tour featuring the expanded cinema of 70fps, and
continued in Naples one year after, where they recorded “Droga”.
Reel-to-reel tape recorder, self-built electronics instruments, feedback
systems join here Zalaski’s unpredictable rhythms, to create textures
and interactions full of energy and dynamics. If on one side they look
at the more serious electro-acoustic, on the other they don’t forget the
playful side of improvisation, leaving room for unexpected mashups of
songs, quotations, parodies.
One of the most obvious “false friends” between Italian and polish
language, “Droga” can steel hold the profound sense of a meeting that is
based on stupidity as well as on intellectual refinements, that is
visceral and coarse like a Neapolitan fishermen and strong and
imperturbable like a bison of Alaska.
