2017 release.
Bruno Pronsato
returns with his first new artist album since 2011. Entitled
US Drag
, it's the follow-up to 2011's critically acclaimed
Lovers Do
(SONG 006CD/LP) -- lauded by Pitchfork as a "
striking and massive statement
", and decorated with a 4.5/5 rating by Resident Advisor. The new record, which finds the ex-punk rock drummer exploring dense, interlocking rhythms and unorthodox tuning systems, was recorded in Berlin during the second half of 2016, and features a collaboration with
Liars
' frontman
Angus Andrew
. After the vast, complex arrangements of his previous albums, the nine recordings on
US Drag
are relatively more upfront and direct, with a particular focus on bells, tuned percussion, and the Sequential Circuits Six-Trak synthesizer (used to create many of the album's synth parts). Pronsato's ongoing collaboration with
Yonatan Levi
continues, with the Israeli bassist appearing on the album's second track. "
His music is worth the serious headphone scrutiny one devotes to a
Pierre Henry
or
Eric Dolphy
LP.
" --XLR8R "
One of the most compelling artists in experimental house music . . . has a way of enveloping a space until everything else just feels inconsequential
." --Resident Advisor "
Amazingly fresh and joyously live . . . Wields silence as if it's his own instrument.
" --The Wire "
Electronic nonpareil
" --FACT Magazine.
