roberto opalio: 'the last night of the angel of glass, vol. i & ii'
2xcd

'double cd set reissuing the acclaimed "the last night of the angel of glass, vol.i", original soundtrack to the omonimous film by roberto opalio (released on the long-out-of-print dvd-r/cd-r set by foxglove, usa), plus the totally previously unreleased "vol.ii" (entire disc 2), representing the second half of a unique recording session.

the work here available for the first time in its entire and remastered version was recorded by the artist himself at home in torino, italy, on november 1st 2005, while his camera, set on the balcony, was filming opalio's glass-art creation (the angel) animated by the soft light of a candle under a blackened sky. here are the words by the artist himself, reported as liner notes inside the 6-panels gatefold sleeve featuring stills taken from the film:

'my voice/ my astral guitar/ instants of life/ home/ window of memories/ blue afternoon/ winter 2005/ cold burning flame/ torino/ whispers of glass/ suspended/ between/ day & night/ before black falls'.

released in an elegant matt varnished digi-sleeve. strictly limited edition of 600 copies.

praxinoscope 's/t'
lp picture disc

praxinoscope is a new project which sees the duo roberto opalio (one-half of my cat is an alien) and ramona ponzini (close collaborator of the italian space-brothers).

while in the debut album as painting petals on planet ghost (out in early september 2005 on time-lag records) ramona will focus on her japanese vocals alongside both brothers' acoustic tunes, here she plays little japanese percussions and wind chimes, creating a resonant texture over roberto's alien wordless vocals and space electronics.

the material comes from a whole session recorded in a mysterious location of the western alps, directly transferred to cd using neither overdubs nor outtakes, practice which the opalio bros have made us addicted to.

for the entire length of its 40 minutes, the piece will stifle you the breath because of its so pure essence and intimate mood; a mystic, suffocated chant reminding the silence of ancient rituals, the ultimate exorcism to avert the infinite pain.

limited edition of 500 copies only as vinyl picture disc 12" lp with psychedelic artwork!
