Galaverna is pleased to announce that next December 21st its catalogue will be enriched with the contribution of Australian sound artist Jay-Dea Lopez, who will release “AC”, a work focused on sound exploration of the concept of “place”. With this contribution, the artist, based in the village of Main Arm, New South Wales, questions the relationship between field recording, often used as a practice to investigate exotic and distant places, and the intimate dimension of home-listening. This analysis is developed both on a spatial level and on the fringe that separates the audible and the inaudilble, managing to fascinate the listener for its capacity to handle the balance between complexity and the capacity to open the soundscape to very suggestive atmospheres.
Jay-Dea Lopez’s release will be the last of 2014. This year, many important contributions were brought to Galaverna, such as the works of Pietro Riparbelli, Fabio Lattuca and Pietro Bonanno, but also Miguel Carvalhais and Pedro Tudela. With the firm conviction that this work will follow the trail designed so far, with a programme that holds a lot in store for the months to come.
