Mb + Barnacles
Sidereal Decomposition Activity
A new collaboration between legendary Italian composer M.B. (Maurizio Bianchi) and Barnacles. Previous M.B. releases have been on Important Records, Old Europa Cafe, and many others. M.B. has collaborated with Merzbow, Dissecting Table, Ryan Martin (Dais Records), and many others. Pitchfork called M.B.'s music a "mysterious modernism." After first meeting in 2007, legendary Italian composer Maurizio Bianchi and Matteo Uggeri (Barnacles) return on a collaboration, an uncompromising trip through space dubbed 'Sidereal Decomposition Activity'. The album features four long tracks described as "cosmic music, a neurotic trip between analogue noises and pulsing beats, that ends in an armageddon of obsessive sounds. This is the first release for the two Italian artists on Artoffact and comes in a gorgeously designed digipak.
