for hybrid percussion and ensemble
2020/21
It is a look stripped of nostalgia that exposes the cult to the ephemeral, the codes of entertainment and the fragmented and synthetic interpretation of the history of music. Through different simplistic labels, the “eighties” sound of a drum is linked to a synthesiser chord, followed by a distorted guitar troggering reminiscences of different sub-genres. Sequences of references forming a dense and colourful texture. Through a dysfunctional mechanism, the piece underlines the characteristics of accumulation and the delightful vertigo proposed by the entertainment industry.
