Business as usual with Giuseppe Ielasi on August (12k1044), his latest release for the American 12k label which has produced many excellent minimal meisterwerks. The Italian genius turns in five long tracks of very discreet and gently textured humming fragility, aided in places by the trumpet of Heimo Wallner and the tape recorder of Renato Rinaldi. The intriguing front cover portrays a dog lying down in some urban conurbation in Hanoi, a photograph which rejoices in many perplexing reflections. – Ed Pinsent
