Limited Edition 12" one sided lathe cut record w/full length CD
Record/Vinyl + Digital Album
This 16 min+ "single" comes in the form of a Limited Edition, one sided 12" lathe cut record. Adhered to the somewhat distressed back side of each of the 50 copies is a uniquely different, hand rounded vintage x-ray that has been scratched and scarred, and then hand lettered with vintage Letraset rub on lettering. The record itself comes in a center holed, heavyweight recycled kraftboard jacket that has been hand distressed on both sides with illegible Letraset rub on lettering patterns. The jacket fronts have attached x-ray cutouts, and are hand stamped and numbered on the back on a credit text sheet that is printed on vintage, book, end paper sheets. In effect, this is the TRS version of the infamous "bone music" x-ray records released in Russia in the 50's and 60's...although ours will sound quite a bit better! As usual these records were cut at Bladud Flies, in Wales, UK.

Everyone that purchases this Limited Edition lathe cut record single will be sent a copy of the full length CD as well as part of the price.

about

Pianist, composer, performer. Tiziano Popoli produces musical projects, sound installations and soundtracks for video, cinema, theater and dance. His interests includes minimalism, sound experimentation, ethnic - traditional music, field recording, and interactive arts. He has been at the forefront of Italian electronic music since the mid 1980's.

In the words of Tiziano himself:

“In Lingua Mortuorum (something like " In the Language of the People Dead”) is an unreleased piece for magnetic tape from 1989, largely made by manipulating classical music and home made recordings. The title alludes to a “talk of the dead”. In this work I was inspired by the positions of the people killed by the eruption of Vesuvius, as can be seen in Pompeii. As if they were alive, as if they could move and talk. Last year I found this tape in my archive and digitized it, then I sent the file to some friends, Riccardo Sinigaglia, Paolo Modugno and Paolo Venturi, asking them to play freely on the piece. Everyone played on the "base" without listening to the tracks of the others In the end I edited all the material and… voila.”Pianist, composer, performer.
