LA RECENSIONE

Like the noise of a heart in constant fibrillation, an unnatural and incessant continuous beat, where you wonder when death will come, how to feel it arriving at any moment and by mistake but only by mistake always escape it.

What is this album?

The soundtrack of a comatose state, but without light at the end of the tunnel "something deeper and darker is no longer music” (Copied quote from a website, but I don’t remember which one, very fitting)

An incredible magma of anguish slides heavily from your head down to your stomach, and burns the flow along the trachea as you realize that this listening will make you feel sick all day.

You’re swallowing it in a daze like when you decide to down a bottle of scotch even though you know the next day will be a nightmare, and you do it anyway.

I keep listening to "The Kirghiz Light" even though I know tomorrow I’ll spend vomiting it out, and now I'm writing about it even though I know no one is interested in Rapoon.

In short, Rapoon, master of electronics for its own sake, deserved a review for its own sake, soundtrack of a world so beautiful, yet in a constant and irreversible comatose state.
