Description:
The genesis of “Dark Tango”:
after the frustrating loss of the debut full-lenght “Thanaterotis Symposion” master, I felt the need to express my InnerWorld with this 2nd (and this time homogeneous) long playing mcd: an unusual concept work which represents a tribute to Tango Renaissance through the Contemporary Avant-garde musicians’ contribute, blending decadent sentimental lyrics (also including an adaptation for a poem written by P.P.Pasolini) – sung with a not canonical / ill chansonnier approach to the voice – with music halfway Free Jazz and Classic Chamber Music with a touch of dark ambient and some peculiar research contrivances such as the Estibillista presence or some polyrhythmic phrasings, often melting into sonorities peculiar to another deeply-rooted passion of mine: the Soundtracks.
Absolutely for open-minded listeners and an important moment of explication for my personal cogitations about Spleen… The recording is bad just like those days mood…
