After a period of hibernation, Aperture awakens with a bang and a compelling program in the pipeline. Following their first album released on Aperture at the tail end of 2015 with No.3 Obliate (AP 008LP), the Italian duo T.e.s.o. present their second full-length album Costruzione 04. As the title suggests, the album centers around an underlying theme of construction, inspired by radical architecture, brutalism, and collages from Superstudio. The concept and title evolved from the nature of the album and the process of building up tracks from a number of separate samples, much like the singular elemental materials used to assemble a structure. Alongside their music production, the duo has previously created a multimedia installation that investigated the geometric studies of Le Corbusier in parallel to the musical production of Erik Saite and Matteo Castiglioni continues to create impressive audiovisual installations such as the recent "Freddo Flusso" and "neon(i)", as well as a collaboration with Danilo Randazzo. T.e.s.o. also continue to perform absorbing live sets of their own inimitable range of musical perspective and vision. Intense, visual, and structured, Costruzione 04 again showcases T.e.s.o.'s complex, obscure, and dominant beats and their oblique and sometimes challenging style.
