THE BRUTALITY OF MISBREATHING

This is the first album Andrea Marutti published under his own name, without using pseudonyms or projects names. After having written and produced a handful of mysteriously-slow moving droning efforts, Marutti apparently decided to publish personal materials that are much more into post-industrial, nuclear, bionic electronics (Maurizio Bianchi...). Consequently and as suggests the title, The Brutality of Misbreathing is an intoxicating, menacing and claustrophobic experimental electronic release. It starts with the mighty, utterly dark and austere Through Half Closed Eyes and its sublime, nightmarish abstract atmosphere, using different concrete and ambient sound sources. It carries on with the cavernous, heavily blackened & echoing piece Early Morning Failure. Choked by Emptiness is my favourite on this one: a marvellously evocative piece that implicitly alludes allusion to the decaying- dissolving aspects of humanity, announcing the apocalyptical spendour of the eternal fire. The piece Absence Leaves an Echo which closes the album is an heavenly-sonic dronescape that emerges into blackness. Metaphoric, narcoleptic post-industrial music at its very best. An other great and hidden facet of Andrea Marutti's fruitful musical production.
