PESCETRULLO (soundscapes) out today - āContinuing their magnetic pull to observe and interact with ancient and handmade environments, Tan Cologne traveled to Puglia, Italy in September 2022 to intuitively record and perform on site and in residency atĀ
@pescetrullo , a unique space located among ancient olive trees and traditional rural structures.
During historic lightning storms, power outages, and oscillating visitors, the duo created soundscapes composed of field recordings and live instrumentation, organic sounds and texture.Ā Recording took place both inside and outside the distinct architectural structures as well as a parallel water to Pescetrullo, the seaside of Torre Pozzelle. Sounds were captured in coves and within cavernous cut-outs interacting with lapping water and smoothed ripples.Ā Together with percussive recordings made inside the cement pool at Pescetrullo, and of rock stacking, thunder, glass bottle tapping, and insect behaviors, the sounds were pieced together to form a sonic imprint of the multidimensional layers.
The project entitled āPescetrullo (soundscapes)ā is a different and site-specific presentation from the duo, centered in instrumental and ambient sound. The recordings and accompanying book of film photos will be released today via
@labradorrecords on cassette (the labelās first cassette release!) with an accompanying zine of film photos as a time capsule - 1 year from recording. ā
