2020 repress. ReR Vinyl present a reissue of
Roberto Musci
and
Giovanni Venosta
's
Water Messages On Desert Sand
, originally released in 1987.
Water Messages On Desert Sand
was the very first sound creation from the Italian avant-garde duo of Roberto Musci and Giovanni Venosta. A classic work in the genre, released by
Chris Cutler
's Recommended Records in 1987. Back in the mid-eighties, Musci and Venosta, both on sampler, synthesizer, guitar, piano, effects, and tapes were masters in overlaying and constructing rhythmic and harmonic pictures of transparent sound from electronic, acoustic, and documentary source, taking ethnic field recordings (from Africa, Indonesia, Asia, India) as their thematic center.
Water Messages
finds place in the realm of
Eno
and
Byrne
's
My Life in the Bush of Ghosts
(1981) but far more accomplished and developed. A rich moving and still very stimulating work and an essential purchase for anyone interested in adventurous modern art informed by ethnic music and sound explorations. In two words: highly recommended.
