<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>(etre) is the project of Italian sound artist Salvatore Borrelli,<BR>"A
Post-Fordist Parade in the Strike of Events" being his debut album<BR>and the
latest release from Baskaru.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>For going beyond the laptop cliches, that is, as a first listen to<BR>"A
Post-Fordist Parade in the Strike of Events" clearly demonstrates:<BR>vocals,
toys, and all kinds of guitars and percussion instruments<BR>unceremoniously
blend in with field recordings and custom Max/MSP patches.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Under a glitch guise, (etre)’s music hides a resolutely personal
approach<BR>combining melodicism, collage, lyricism, and a sharp sense of
digital textures.<BR>Ekkehard Ehlers, Tim Hecker and Greg Davis come to mind,
not because (etre)<BR>sounds like them, but because he sounds as unmistakably
unique as them.<BR>The 11 tracks on "A Post-Fordist Parade in the Strike of
Events" form a loose<BR>suite of sorts, like the successive dreams of a restless
night.<BR>The album also includes an extra track, "Search & Destroy White
Calligraphy",<BR>accompanied by a remarkable video signed Virgilio Villoresi and
Giuseppe Chiesa.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>(etre) was first active in the fields of sound art installation and
experimental<BR>performance art. A member of the collective iXem, he has worked
with interior<BR>decorator Lin-Kuhn Liao and ceramist Fabrizio Quintelmo.</DIV>
