RELEASE DATE

The result of a long period of study and retirement in a house in the Bologna countryside in the first three months of 2018,
Kenosis
renews the meeting between
Stefano Pilia
and
Massimo Pupillo
(already together on several tours of
ZU
and in the
Zu93
project, together with
David Tibet
). A Greek word of Gnostic derivation (literally meaning "emptying"),
Kenosis
is the result of a process of composition that saw the two musicians move away from their usual writing methods and from the conventional use of their instruments, to push themselves towards a sound, only apparently electronic, at the limit between the organic and inorganic world. Everything you hear in
Kenosis
was played, simply using a bass and an electric guitar processed analogically, often improvising in very long sessions, the starting point for the actual composition. The drawings of the
Red Book
of
Jung
, open every day on a different page and left in front of the mixer, have marked the writing of the album which shows, among other things, the shared passion for the harmonic method of
Arvo Part
and the research underground of certain Italian artists, in particular
Roberto Musci
. In the DNA of these pieces, inspiring elements such as the Diamond Sutra, the meditation lessons of
Joseph Goldstein
, the bell towers, the sounds of birds in the fields surrounded the studio. "
This is music that is simply passed through us.
