More Info 48 minutes (one piece) organic cyber-ambient at its best, and one long video-track.. a new work by CASCONE on the new label from COEVAL. Creates a fascinating surreal atmosphere... “ ’Gravity Handler' was created from many different field recordings made in Madrid on October 3rd 2003. Recordings were made on fire escapes, water fountains, subways, elevators, escalators, and of a particularly noisy refrigerator in the studio where the CD was mixed. These recordings were subjected to processing and layering in Pro Tools with the intent of creating a continuum of recognizability: from sounds heard in our everyday surroundings to those heard only in our imagination. The intent of this CD is to convey a sonic impression of Madrid rather than presenting a documentation of the sonic environments encountered. The title of the CD is borrowed from a work by Marcel Duchamp, who was famous for taking the ordinary and transforming it into the extraordinary.” [press release]
