‘Vasi Comunicanti’ is a collaboration between L.A. performer and avant-garde artist Anna Homler and Alessio Capovilla, co-founder of Gang Of Ducks. Alessio Capovilla (1985, Turin, Italy ) is an Italian composer interested in sound modeling. A dialogue between ancient tools and new technologies through synthesis, computer music and field recording, crossing beats and genres towards something not easily definable. The record flows along 5 tracks, with Capovilla taking care of synths, drums programming and audio engineering, and Homler singing in her melodic phonetic language, mixing unique voice and sound effects. “De’la cocce” moves around on a slow quasi-dub rhythm accompanied by whistle and vocal interventions. In “Ricordo” Anna’s voice is more prominent, traveling through a digital dimension made of flutes, Buchla Music Easel sequences and rainsticks. The B side starts with “Bread Dance”, where different layers of vocals and drums repeat themselves in an obsessive and haunting atmosphere. “Be’ya Sa’di” is an ambient and cinematic piece, which quietly introduces “Mem”, the most emotionally and intense song of the collection, transporting the listener into a different dimension. The whole record creates a world with no geographical coordinates, where humans meet their primary feelings in a suspended time, escaping the present and the intelligible world.
