This cassette is the first installment in the label's Death Series, and it is, indeed, a eulogy. Italian artist and media anthropologist currently residing in Bergen, Norway Gabriele de Seta (Naturalismo) has recorded three beautiful compositions for Zev Asher, Aube, and Zbigniew Karkowski respectively.

“I've worked on these pieces from around 6 years ago. Mostly as turning points, trying out new things & compositional approaches, and realized I was basically paying homage to musicians who had recently passed away. First piece is a slow ambient dirge for Zev Asher (1963-2013) – crossed paths with him briefly in China in 2007, knew him as a member of Flying Testicle, then watched his documentaries. Second piece is for Aube / Akifumi Nakajima (1959-2013), who is one of My favorite Japanese musicians and deeply influenced my attraction towards minimalism and repetition… This was an occasion to follow through with it. Third piece is a noisier affair for unplugged cable, which is the rawest thing I could imagine after hanging out with Zbigniew Karkowski (1958) -2013) just a few months before he passed away – he was very kind and sharp, and left a deep impression on me. I guess this record is not a romantic tribute or anything, but something in 2013 seemed to suddenly make a hidden wheel turn , an d some of the musicians I knew as coveted mp3 files or I had just had the privilege to cross paths with, were gone. ”(Gabriele de Seta)

The new long-play has been composed and recorded in Russia and China but finalized in Barcelona. It’s important to note that there are no field recordings, but some of the compositions have been recorded live and later reassembled in the studio.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe title track is a 35-minute-long composition for laptop, live electronics, and an improvising violinist. It was recorded with Russian-Finnish multi-instrumentalist Sasha Kretova in Petergof, with Zoloto performing in his favorite mode: as a dub engineer, with a laptop, a mixing desk, and some Soviet and handmade effects. It fuses his two main passions together: the raw and improvised side of drone music (think Vibracathedral Orchestra) and heavily processed\u003cspan class=\"bcTruncateMore\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e electronics moving at a glacial pace with distant bass explosions.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTracks “Problem no. 1” and “The Door Is Open” document Zoloto exploring another side of his heritage: here he’s playing jouhikko, a Karelian-Finnish bowed lyre, in a very aggressive and rude manner.

The result has been described by one listener as “Tim Hecker meets Hijokaidan”.\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eArtist : Ivan Zoloto\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLabel : School of the Arts\u003c\/p\u003e"}
