LA RECENSIONE

Like the Pistols, this music clears your mind and convinces you that everything you normally hear is second-rate
(Amazon Customer)

Hotel Paral.lel. 20 years later it's still like that. Elegant and brutal. 15 rooms to traverse with eyes closed and volume at maximum. Without being distracted by what has been built afterward. To remain immersed in a sound space that is simultaneously clear and distorted, concrete and abstract, powerful and fragile.

Even today, be surprised to traverse these vibrant sonic accidents capable of echoing stronger than ever a desire for retro-future. Fennesz, Boards of Canada, Sakamoto. What rooms will we and the androids dream of in 20 years?
