DeK

2006 release ** Packaged in oversize cardboard sleeve. "DeK (Die Entartene Kunst, i.e. Degenerate Art) is a group of ""contemporary improvisation"", understood as Instant Composition, in the best European and non-European radical tradition (from Nuova Consonanza to AMM, to Buthc Morris). The ensemble, open, hosts numerous musicians, who alternate from time to time. The core group is made up of Massimo Daolio, Margaret Leitgeb, Davide Negrini, Andrea Bini, Paolo Boschi, Alessandro Verdecchia. In this second CD of theirs we find 4 compositions totally improvised, but in which the ""sound sense"" is evident and clear, deriving from the careful observation of places and men, understood as musicians who interact with each other and with the environment that surrounds them. The final impression is that of an impressively cohesive "unicum" with well-defined acoustic characteristics, to which the colours of the different instruments used (ranging from the classic piano, flute, clarinet and violin to the didjeridoo, lap steel or Armenian flute) bring from time to time those nuances that make the musical experience of DeK highly enjoyable on different levels."
