In the four years since Italian-born, London-based artist Roberto Crippa released his acclaimed album Reverse on We Can Elude Control (WCEC 010LP, 2014), Crippa has been lurking amongst London streets at night slowly developing alchemical thoughts which would cast the ten shadows that make up SELENIC. Whereas Reverse can be viewed as an introspective album constructed as a set of individual audio "objects", SELENIC is an album gazing out into the world, relentlessly exposing and toying with its very fabric. Painstakingly assembled over a number of years, SELENIC is an album of immense power and subtly conceived amongst the silver reflections witnessed amongst the silent lustrous environment that surrounds everyone at night. A visceral auditory experience rendering itself from the numerous collapsed and recomposed forms of quantified electronic outlay: rhythm, ambience, and concrete all configured to construct an amorphous narrative based work where each piece unfolds as a mutated container of previous identities. Distinctive in development, design, and execution, SELENIC stands as a solitary gesture of Crippa's idiosyncratic experimental research.
