about

Luca Manti started as an upright bass player and immediately became fascinated by free jazz, which he practiced for some years. He then ventured into the world of experimental electronic music, where he found his voice through modular systems.
His compositions blend samples and digital sound, opening up vivid sonic spaces, inhabited by quirky sounds - which may evoke crawling insects in futuristic jungles - and expressive harmonies panned across the territories. His experiments with mechanics, sculptures or broken electronics subtly infuse his musical world, and his search for aesthetic forms and endemic textures.

lyrics

Samples drive the beginning of the process. When manipulating them through the instrument, some compelling texture may emerge, and vividly merge with the digital sound of the 200e, which lights up a chain of ideas. It is always exciting not to know how your newly or old recorded sound may turn out when squeezed, morphed, filtered, through the Keen Association / Buchla instrument. Futuristic violin sounds are created by a continuous waveform that changes over time, which makes the whole story telling more vibrant and dynamic. It almost feels like the sound involve its whole dense body while sketching some expressive gestures into the soundscape. The dramatic part enters the stage when this gesture-talking sound is being conducted by a continuous controller. It allows me to get the feeling of playing an upright bass, as I used to do back in the days. The uncertainty of the continuous controller gives me the freedom to forget everything about music rules and theory. As this white surface with x-y-z axis, banana cable I/O, trace memory, etc., opens-up the very notion of control. Alluding to a jagged stone formation along the Italian coast, expression and drama lies at the rocky core of “Due Sorelle”, where being-sibling entails alternating states of stormy skies and smooth sea.
