M.B + E.D.A - Regolelettroniche [Baskaru - 2008]

This collaboration between Italian noise/industrial/ ambient legend Maurizio Bianchi & fellow electronic artists Emanuela De Angelis follows the drone and sampled  based loop path, sort of like a more urgent and less dissolving take on William Basinski work.

Each of the four tracks selects a looped texture or musical moment and slowly loops it over and over again with slight sonic growths and movements occurring along the way. The tracks last between two and twenty five minutes and are for the most part quite hypnotic and lovely, with the odd texture been a little more jarring and ominous but for the most part this is trance inducing glory and wonder. My favourite moment here is the longest piece Cosmic Norms which loops this stuck coral loop over and over, with  a collection of nice smouldering and slightly shifting ambient textures underneath the main loop that warm you more and more as the track progresses.

Though hardly the most original or world shattering thing you’ll hear it does have a tendency to get under your skin, all in all an pleasant enough drone/ loop biased release.
