专辑简介
"The Opalio brothers are among the most talented artists on the planet. Roberto and Maurizio are the new kings of the solar system, and their reign will be nothing but superb. This is essential music." -- Brad Rose, Editor, Foxy Digitalis
Second installment in the Cosmic Debris split art/LP series set up by Maurizio & Roberto Opalio, a.k.a. My Cat Is An Alien. Volume two sees the two space brothers alongside visual and sound artist Steve Roden. Roden's contribution features the unique experience of hearing him literally "playing" guitar chords. The first track develops through the minimal and reiterated sound architecture of Roden's so-called "possible landscapes," where singular source materials such as objects and field recordings are abstracted through electronic processes to generate new audio spaces, characterizing the artist's aesthetic in sound works. The following track is a relatively unheard aspect of Roden's ability to shape a fascinating, intimate piece with only an old electric guitar and his own fingers, and it also demonstrates how a true artist can recreate his own personal universe, no matter what kind of source is utilized. Meanwhile, MCIAA delivers another piece of "cosmic debris" centered on multilayered voice echoes, toy pianos, space drones, and the brothers' own physical gestures. Their track "Everything Waves Like Cosmic Debris" also features the contribution of Ramona Ponzini on Japanese bells.
