Maurizio Bianchi

2014 repress, originally released in 1998. First issued by the Mnemonists' label (Dys in the U.S.) in 1982. M.B.: proto-electronics, compositions, arrangements. Mektpyo Bakterium is a work furnished of implacable plastic exasperation. The icy oppression, the hallucinative electronic wounds, are a precious and singular fact in a technological society brought to the limit. The emotion is pushed into dangerous zones, and unusual zones, and unusual tensions -- free biological groans of extreme effectiveness. A vivid expression of a world in extinction! Bonus tracks: "Placenta," first issued on the 40 Days/40 Nights picture-disc LP in 1982, and the M.B. contribution to the International Friendship compilation LP from 1983. Fifth in the "ArcheoMB" CD reissue series.
