Lorenzo Abattoir
Abstersion
An exquisite collage exploring the internal sound-world of an upright piano. The piano here has shed its traditional use as a musical instrument to emerge as a wonderfully sonorous body in itself. Incidental sounds which are typically relegated to the periphery are moved towards the center of attention in a kaleidoscopic unity which privileges no sound over any other, opening up a whole world of noise, tone, and every shade between.
Mixed by Lorenzo Abattoir in his private studio in Turin, Italy
Mastered by Giuseppe Ielasi
