Once again Lino surprises us. Always a poet of silences and strictly acoustic sounds, now he offers an album where synthetic sounds are the protagonists.
On the other hand, since the time of the collaborations with Franco Battiato, the VCS3 has been in the poetics of Lino and Franco.
Thus, as often happens, even the new and the old are in sympathetic symbiosis. And this album is the definitive proof of this.
What makes it truly incredible is that it doesn't matter whether Lino sits at the piano or his beloved vibraphone or his arcane gongs.
Lino is immediately recognisable.
There is something ephemeral yet persistent in its semantics.
Something that in fact makes Lino Capra Vaccina's poetics unique and capable of probing deep ancestral chords: sounds of memory without time and space.
This album is really something different...
A new beginning.
