This final chapter of the vinyl series puts to close friend/collaborators on two different sides of a split, infact Iriondo and Cantu have been joining their instruments to pay duty in A Short Apnea, Six Minutes War Madness, Uncode Duello, Tasaday and many other projects. Cantu uses guitar, drums, organ, tapes, vocals, electronics and many other things to recreate something that is really close to A Short Apnea. This side is imbued of that Seventies freaky music aura, the second track for…

Phonometak Series #2
The first chapter of this vinyl series opened with Zu duelling with Iceburn, the follow up is a face to face that puts Mats Gustafsson in front of Paolo Angeli. Talking about the swedish saxophonist (here he plays also alto fluteophone) what should I add you don't know already?...personally I've loved his combined effort together with “Rome's only” Zu (withTakemure more then ever in full blossoming), by the way what we have here is an acoustic improvised performance not so far from many releases…
Phonometak Series #3
