Arnold Dreyblatt

ex Teatro San Leonardo - ora Si', Bologna

The founders of New York experimental music group Bang on a Can created Cantaloupe Music to provide a home on silvery disc for music that doesn't fit easily into record-store bins. So it's a little surprising to hear Arnold Dreyblatt's The Adding Machine, the sixth release on Cantaloupe, and realize that these compositions are solidly within the near-canonized tradition of American minimalism. Pulsing, driving, modulating rhythmic cells; two- and three-note motives gradually expanded and elaborated to produce lush, layered textures; a near-trance state for the engaged listener, forgetting yourself in the frenetic chirping of 'meantime' or the solid thump of the title track. Dreyblatt does it well, as you can probably tell, but it's all so1975. domenica 17/5/15 alle 21.30.
