Today’s music is a grim entity, reduced to a mere simulacrum of entertainment, where even aesthetics are bent to the community and to trade.
PAOLO VOLPATO (“Contro” 2020 – and the partecipation in Y.O.U. 2023 – tribute to ALLAN HOLDSWORTH),
an inspired and powerful artist, distances himself from the vulgar concept of “applause music” to trigger deep and introspective dynamics such as expression of struggle against the Modern world.
Metronoise is his most audacious recording work, full of aesthetics, technique and force materialized in the form of extemporaneous improvisations.
A record that is actually the image of its author and which depicts him the artist, the thinker and the philosopher.
(Frank Pilato)
