Infinite reveries or translucent hallucinations, calm and steady pace, ghostly but undeniably present: this is Suono In Un Tempo Trasfigurato, Bono / Burattini’s debut record for Maple Death. Inspired by the films of Maya Deren, Francesca Bono (vocalist, founder of Ofeliadorme and member of the Donnacirco collective) and Vittoria Burattini (percussionist, member of influential Italian avant-rock band Massimo Volume) created a dense and hypnotic record using only a Juno 60 and a drum kit. These limitations set the scene for a rich voyage that oscillates between dream soundscapes and psychedelic rhythmic architectures. The album’s sparse use of Bono’s voice brings measured phrasing, breathing and spiral structures that reference the rich Italian tradition of cosmic jazz, library music and the work of the RAI engineers of the 1970s working with Gruppo Di Improvvisazione Nuova Consonanza, Morricone and Daniela Casa.
