CHRISTA PFANGEN
Watch me getting back the end
DIE SCHACHTEL
DSZEIT 03 CD CD 2006
Christa Pfangen are Andrea Belfi and Mattia Coletti. The name is a hommage to Nico, although the music has obviously no relation with the icon of the New York avant garde scene. They belong to the new electroacoustic/improv/avant-rock scene which is taking shape in Italy and includes such names as 3/4 had been eliminated, Valerio Tricoli, Å, Stefano Pilia and others.
Working with percussion, treated guitar and an array of different objects and noises, they have given birth to a dynamic work of great beauty and reverberating rhythms, oscillating between avant folk and electroacoustic music.

There is a wonderfully 'soft' quality to their work. Despite its stark juxtapositions and disharmony, it's free from any of the conflict, strife, ego or ruthlessly insatiable desire that regular rock is prone to reflecting and transmitting onto the world. (The Wire)
Creatività pura, di un'inventiva nel costruire traccie di tre minuti o poco più, che sanno definire quasi alla perfezione, quella sintesi tra pop e avanguardia che da altre parti è magari soltanto malcelata ambizione. Il resto è puro piacere dell'ascolto (Blow Up)
exceptional! (Other Music)
