Controfase is an unknown (and almost lost) masterpiece.A shadowed giant of compositional skill and deft application – a moment when all the stars and their cycles align – unique, harmonious, undeniably perfect. From Walter Branchi’s skeletal web of processed VCS3 duetting with mournful violin, to Egisto Macchi’s demonstrative percussion jousting Edda Dell’Orso’s breathless siren’s call, Morricone and Nicolai have crafted a radiant, forbidden jewel.
- First ever commercial release for this Holy Grail 1972 Library LP of brooding avant orchestral, abstract percussion and analogue synth genius.
- Special guest appearances from ‘Gruppo Di Improvvisazione Nuova Consonanza’ and Edda Dell’Orso.
- Limited Edition 200 GRM Deluxe LP with exclusive scholarly liner notes by Alvin Lucia.
- Full dynamic range 2015 remaster direct from the first generation analogue master tapes
