BW 018RE-LP
|
Reissue of the one-sided vinyl picture disc, originally available with the Fabio Orsi box set with book of the same name. The vinyl has an exclusive long track that is a sort of "summa" of Fabio Orsi's musical world: like his early releases, Il Ricordo Improvviso Dell'Assoluto Stupore is deep drone ambient track, with distant guitars and a nostalgic touch. Hypnotic and melodic at the same time... One-sided picture disc including a small insert; edition of 200.

Backwards presents the new Fabio Orsi studio album. Recorded in the lockdown period, for this release Fabio plays two mono synths, sequencers, and effects. Similar to the latest releases, this five-track album also maintains the electronic atmospheres to which the monophonic synths give warmth to the infinite melodic sequences. Another true gem of electronic, ambient, and cosmic music from Fabio Orsi. Edition of 300.

Backwards present the new Fabio Orsi release, Di Lumi E Chiarori. This time Fabio offered a monumental work: eight long tracks contained in a huge box set with four compact discs. Musically it stands on the new course of the artist: together with the classic ambient and drone atmospheres, the work has more dynamic parts with rhythms and pulsations, and more melodic parts. A perfect meeting between ambient music and Berlin-style electronics, between intimate and dreaming atmospheres and epic soundscapes. Immersive electronic music that will puts your mind into a wonderful trance like state of being. Comes in an elegant matte finish box, with four cardboard wallet inside and one insert; edition of 250.

"I've known Fabio Orsi for almost fifteen years now, artistically and humanly. Since the days of Osci his first album released by Small Voices, my label at that time, up to some essential records published by A Silent Place, another label that I managed, in a period that seems almost unrepeatable. Each of his work, whether in music or photography, is always a certainty for me, but lately also a surprise; in fact Fabio Orsi has learned to surprise himself and surprise us: this new creature is different from his previous releases, but is always touched by that talent and crystalline class that distinguishes him; after all these years, I can affirm it without fear of appearing too enthusiastic or even partisan. The new work Sterminato Piano settles among the best things of Fabio Orsi, but also in some ways, among the most unexpected and original. After eight years in Berlin, his return to Puglia (south of Italy) is restoring new life and new creativity and new energy. In fact, the new album is full of energy and warmth, with patterns, sequences, and dancefloor beats of our dreams." --LP Cover artwork by Italian illustrator Mastereaster. Edition of 300.

"'Wannsee is a locality in the southwestern Berlin borough of Steglitz-Zehlendorf, Germany. It is the westernmost locality of Berlin. In the quarter there are two lakes, the larger Großer Wannsee (Greater Wannsee) and the Kleiner Wannsee (Little Wannsee). Both are located on the river Havel and are separated only by the Wannsee bridge. The larger of the two lakes covers an area of 2.7 km2 (1.0 sq mi) and has a maximum depth of 9 m (30 ft).' - quote from Wikipedia. Recorded at Wannsee locality in October 2011 and edited, produced and mastered by Fabio Orsi, Wannsee is a composition (divided into three parts) of field recordings in their purest forms. A nostalgic work done exclusively with environmental sounds captured on location. One-time pressing of 200 copies only, one-sided black vinyl, in white sleeve with debossed lettering and one insert."

The Preservation label presents Stand Before Me, Oh My Soul from Italian composer Fabio Orsi. Fabio's prolific output has had him heralded as a master of modern ambience, creating rich, freeform atmospheres with organic instrumentation and processed sounds. Though known for momentous pieces of hypnotic power, this work marks a dynamic new turn in Fabio's sound. The force of his composition takes more of an overt stance on Stand Before Me, Oh My Soul. The raw and primal pulse at the heart of his music is writ large here with a punk mind-set, unleashing a heady mass of guitars against a backdrop of cavernous, shimmering distortion and crashing drums (courtesy of Rich Baker, who also performs regularly with Nadja's Aidan Baker). It also boasts a bristling sense of lysergic, hazy melody. Brutal and glimmering, dark and beautiful, Stand Before Me, Oh My Soul drops loud and large in pursuit of pure, dissonant bliss. This is the first in a new limited edition CD series from Preservation called Circa. 300 copies only will be available of each release in the series and each will feature a design by Mark Gowing. Each design will be realized using a specially-created abstract alphabet of shapes, determined by artist, title and catalog number for something both fixed and random.
