Dalla provincia palermitana a Basilea, un trait d’union che accomuna intenti sovversivi e obliquità targate Frank Zappa, King Crimson, Gong, Naked City, Mr.Bungle, Henry Cow a sonorità avanguardisticamente cameristiche. Un progetto straordinario partorito dall’irrefrenabile estro creativo di Davide Mezzatesta e della sua creatura MEZZ GACANO, condiviso con l’ensemble svizzero ZONE EXPERIMENTALE. Un brillante esperimento denominato “Froka”, che diventa una pubblicazione ufficiale da parte di Lizard Records.
Inevitabilmente ci si ritrova in una zona di confine tra echi di “rock in opposition” (ad esempio certi Stormy Six più strumentali) e avant-progressive (ad esempio i capostipiti Univers Zero).
From Palermo (Sicily, Italy’s deep south) to Basel (Switzerland), a liaison that unites subversive intentions and obliquity with references such as Frank Zappa, King Crimson, Gong, Naked City, Mr.Bungle, Henry Cow, with avant-garde chamber music. An extraordinary project from the creative flair of David Mezzatesta and his creature MEZZ GACANO, shared with the Swiss ensemble ZONE EXPERIMENTALE. A brillant experiment called “Froka“ which becomes an official publication by Lizard Records.
The result is a border area between echoes of “rock in opposition” (for example certain instrumental Stormy Six) and avant–progressive (for example the masters Univers Zero).
