Nth

by Z.E.L.L.E.

supported by

Acoustic Ecologist In Apocalypse Now(1979), sound designer Walter Murch synthesized artificial mosquito sounds in scenes in the Vietnamese jungle in order to create unease in the audience. Nth takes this idea and runs with it. It's unnerving tiny sounds - subverting comforts like insect chirps, fire crackles or old vinyl - exemplify the immense power even the smallest sounds can have on our psyche.

about

LINE_006

Z.e.l.l.e is the project, founded early 2000, of Italian duo of Maurizio Martusciello and Nicola Catalano, both of whom reside in Rome. Their debut cd nth is a collection of points strewn across an implied graph of a sound field; delicate crackles, clean sine waves and sibilant washes create a mechanical room tone of deliberate precision. z.e.l.l.e’s use of a transparent and airy sound palette make nth a highly contemplative and listenable study of sound and space.

Reminded of the movings about of tiny autonomous creatures. Waiting for a clearing, turning around, carrying objects or stopping for whatever reason. Always busy. Maybe an ant colony. Zoom way out to a high rise, look down and see it again. Richard Erickson
