about

All music by Nicola Fornasari.
Recorded using piano, guitar, sine wave generator, piezo-amplified objects, fx and looper pedals, korg monotron.

------------------------

"It would not be strange to compare the music produced by Xu with that of Machinefabriek. (…) Elegant music, slow in development, minimal in execution, its all here."

Vital Weekly

------------------------

"[...] Nel mezzo, a segnare le tappe di un percorso di cinquanta minuti immaginifico e avvincente, ulteriori episodi che dimostrano la capacità di Fornasari di far convivere – ovvero di strettamente avvicendare – linguaggi dalla complementarietà non poi così usuale."
