music. i've been sort of obsessing over it for quite some time now because it just blows me away. i guess i'm just not quite sure why. i'm not sure i understand how it works. re: polmo polpo: sandro "polmo perri" perri does material with beats and without. regardless of the result (ie a track with beats or not), he uses instruments for his textural elements such as lap pedal steel and cello and the like and layers these over and over. this gives his pieces a very distinctive sound. he also uses found sounds ie sounds that are not synthetically produced. if you get the opportunity, check out our collaboration (entitled "oceana") on my "highest common denominator" album for greg clow and sheryl kirby's piehead records label (http://pieheadrecords.com) All of the sounds in our track are sourced from non-synthetic real-world sounds. And there's very little manipulation other than a bit of pitchshifting and effects, so what sounds like a bassline in the song is pretty much an "as is" sound from the real-world (and nope, not a bass or any other instrument), ditto for the rhythmic elements, the hook, etc. Hope this helps.
