restocked, very last copies around **Limited edition of 100 hand-numbered copies housed in die-cut jacket with tessellating artwork insert** A fantastically primordial soup of dismantled and unstable rhythmic electronics and fractal synth patterns by the tightly intuitive duo, Francesco Petricca and Manuel Cascone, aka Nastro. The title of '300 mq' alludes to the size of their recording space in Rome which they were contractually obligated to tear down "with their bare hands" (remember, this was the time of the great Italian glove shortage of 2011) after finishing the album, which cutely dovetails with their collapsed and decimated approach to compositional structure. Analogous to the UK's Sculpture, the more hair-brained post-punk experiments of John Bender or Tara Cross, and the cut-up techniques of William Burroughs and Gysin, the result is a Dadaist disassembly of repetition and psychedelic intent - a sound which pulls in all directions, fracturing trains of thought and creating new pathways through electronic and acoustic sounds to odder conclusions (Boomkat)
