Adolfo La Volpe , Il nome delle Cose,AlchEmistica, 2010
2010 has not ended yet and Adolfo La Volpe signs the
AlchEmistica fourth release just six months from its first
appearance.
The risult is a disc for acoustic guitar and objects, recorded
with no overdubbing and mixed by Adolfo himself between may 2008
and june 2009, featured by a strong experimental mark and by a sort
of urgency to explore new territories.
Atonal sounds, pure noise, folk rhythms, improvisatorial blasts,
gothic architectonic structures, theatre echos, all is whirred,
metabolized and rebrought up into a sonorous magma, into a
stronghly personal stylistic reworking.These arent pure unprepared
extemporisations but the result of a process of growth, a
consequential stilistic evolution, a creative picture, a
concentrated and frozen instant: it means drawing the conclusions
with what you are musically speaking and you have become.
The title of its work itselfIl Nome Delle Coseand the fact that
the twelve tracks do not have a name but a simple number reveal a
sense of vagueness, change in progress and a sense of humour which,
as you can read, inspire the curriculum of this guitarist we are
honoured toh ave with us.
