M.U. PODCAST #141: PAOLO BELLIPANNI (OCTOBER 2022)
Cover Art by Bruno Lopes (Mundo Urbano), October 2022. |
Paolo Bellipanni is a Rome-based composer and sound designer, Previously active under the moniker K’an, he released two albums in the US: “Anima” (Onyudo, 2013) and “Babel” (Time Released Sound, 2016).
His music explores the contact of violence and stillness, melancholic and sinister textures, massive drones, and quiet soundscapes. Instrumental and electronic languages merge together dismembering sounds and evoking haunting atmospheres, inside a mutable prism of drone, glitch, and ambient music. His latest work "Persona", was released on September 16, 2022, via ROHS! RECORDS. «Persona is a mask, a dream, and a tragedy. A language of machines and men, of broken monologues and desperate communication...»
About the Mix: This mix is something between air and matter, body and sacrality, it’s about finding peace in violence and anguish in calmness. I included two tracks of mine that maybe resemble this kind of feelings. I love fragmentation, headbanging, and farewells. Paolo.
