The structure of "Flotus" is built on artificial sounds... What were your listens during the process?

It starts off well, the first track already dispels the doubts about autotune. Maybe I'll listen to it calmly, I had completely forgotten about them... Thanks.

I had no idea. Hats off.
Kylie Minogue & Robbie Williams disco synphony
Voto:
You don't just do it in the title; you repeat it several times in the text: SyNphony? I mean, are you really screaming like that in the review of a piece that we fans of Kylie & Robbie can call epic? Rejected, without appeal.

Does anyone have a zippyshare, uploaded, turbobit etc. link for the solo album from 2014 by their leader, Arch Garrison "I Will Be A Pilgrim"? Thanks a lot.

It seemed like a musical reference, but no, Pascale Comelade really is with them, and so is John Greaves, and others, in this album that I read elsewhere is successful. Well, now let's listen to it. Thank you.

Wow, I hadn't read it. Very beautiful page, I need to find the album and listen to it again. - P.S. You were here back in 2005, you left a handful of comments, then you disappeared and reappeared in 2012 to share your impressions on an album you liked. Will we meet again in 2023?
Michel Houellebecq Soumission

I don't know if I'll find the time to read you with the attention your page deserves, so I'll leave you a veeeery lateral comment: out of the whole book (of which I have both positive and negative opinions for different aspects and that I read as soon as it was published in Italy), what I take away is the curiosity about Huysmans, a character I had begun to get to know and that I promise myself to explore further. Reading this book by M.H. without reflection related to Huysmans' (literary and existential) journey is certainly possible and can still be rich in insights, but it risks not addressing aspects related to the relationship with the divine, which I believe are in some way essential. - Yes, I'll read you calmly and maybe we'll talk about it again later, but I'm not sure; I'm veeeery burnt out. Bye!
Yves Klein Ritratto in rilievo di Arman
Voto:
Among all of Klein's works, this one (I don't know of others that use the figure, aside from the Venus and the Nike, and excluding the "Anthropométrie," where the body is more of an "instrument" in a sort of action painting that leaves uncertain marks) is the one that convinces me the least. I believe this is due to the fact that the hybridization between the synthesis and the power expressed in his work on color and figuration leads to a form of aesthetic banalization that "stiffens" the artwork, crystallizing it. And, returning to the core of your text, it strays from the more significant path. Obviously, the use of gold leaf has clear references to art history and "justifies" a conceptual reading of an artwork that, however, in my opinion, turns out to be disappointing and lacking in interest. In short, yes to Klein, no to this Klein.
Colin Newman Commercial Suicide
Voto:
Eh, I'm putting here a piece that is in the comment on Barracuda's post: A small note on the text, but maybe it's just a matter of understanding: where you say "...the Talking Heads, who to the cry of all for one, one for all..." I read a common intent and a "team spirit" that events and time have shown to be quite ephemeral. Without delving into internal squabbles, but taking into account Byrne's "determination" to achieve his own goals, always and in any case, on every front, which from reliable sources I know has not always been commendable, I would say that all for one, etc., does not reflect reality. That the others owe a large part of their fortunes to Byrne is beyond doubt. Yes, I know, it has little to do with good Newman, I beg your pardon. - P.S. how the hell did you come up with Biolcati and that profusion of "stellar" pianos from "Grande grande amore"?
