Hi everybody

new mp3 release from 

Ctrl+Alt+Canc Records

[ctr31] sevenguitars: 7guitars

Sevenguitars is a project born from the idea of interaction
between sound and space. The protagonists of the project are
seven guitars, apparently identical but technically studied
to obtain distinctive features: the seven instruments have
been designed and hand-built with tonal chambers inside the
solid body that, interacting with the string’s harmonic
vibrations, create different sonic effects. Every guitar is
connected to a valve-amplifier every of witch is equipped
with distinctive speakers and different power. The amps are
used at the maximum volume and tone bringing a feedback
effect with the guitars: the strings go in auto-oscillation
creating different harmonics, depending from the instrument
and the tuning, and reacting with the acoustics features of
the performative environment. The musician lose, therefore,
the role of executor becoming only the creator of a process
open to unpredictable results and closely related to the
contest of performance. Every place, every contest, becomes
an important variable able to influence the result: the
sound is, therefore, linked more to the spatial dimension
than to the temporal one witch the music is traditionally
associated to.
