Blow Up (IT)
Gone maybe definitively back to his own birth name, after a long parenthesis with the moniker Komet, Frank Bretschneider remains one the most inspired and valued authors in the digital music field (even though it can’t go unnoticed that he’s a real fan of a vintage instrument like the Nord modular synth). That is proved one more time by his new album on 12k where he’s trying a swerve in comparison with his other recent works, drying up even more the sound matter as reiterated loops and static soundscapes which unravel in frail cobwebs and chirping of nalog-digital cicadae.
