This album was featured in the guidebook OBSCURE SOUND REVISED EDITION. An exceptionally deep work within the realm of Italian contemporary music, it was released in 1987 by Roberto Donnini, a modern composer who is also active as an architect. This is the second installment in the Tunedless series, arriving seven years after the release of the first album in 1980. It features contributions from numerous musicians in the Italian contemporary music scene, including Roberto Laneri. Centered around minimalist, repetitive synthesizer and piano melodies, the album weaves in flugelhorn and female vocal performances, gradually shifting in expression over time. The result is a deeply experimental and ambient soundscape with an outstanding immersive effect. This masterpiece stands alongside Donnini’s first album and Fluxmar as one of his finest works. Only 300 copies were released, each featuring a handwritten serial number on the sleeve. The artwork is also meticulously crafted. This is a deadstock, unused copy, though there are some slight age-related stains on the outer sleeve and minimal warping on the vinyl. However, it plays without issue.
