This token displayed both videoclips created by Whale for Claudio Milano to support the release of Claudio Milano's vinyl "MusicaMortoSì (da una rupe)"
The two songs represents the two sides of the LP, which collects on the A ì-Side the single from the Claudio Milano's last album "Incidenti (Lo Schianto)": Ho Gettato mio Figlio da una Rupe perché non Somigliava a Fabrizio Corona in an alternative version of 13 minutes long with contributions by Whale, and as a B-Side the track “Ho Gettato Fabrizio Corona da una Rupe perché non Somigliava a mio Figlio” (the only composition recorded in 2021, between the months of July and August, in quintet), that was born from the need to give sound to the electroacoustic performance that has been generated from the videoclip recorded and edited by Whale for "Ho Gettato mio Figlio da una Rupe perché non Somigliava a Fabrizio Corona"
A specular composition also in its length, which deals with how every religion invites to believe to be the only bearer of the "truth", is (today as yesterday) an instrument of war and discrimination, even if in every tradition God is seen as a quality of "merciful mother who cannot forget her children".
A track by the name of NichelOdeon & Captain Mordecai Wirikik (Whale), which became at the same time part of the soundtrack to the CineConcerto "Inferno" (from the silent film/kolossal of
1911 directed by Francesco Bertolini, Giuseppe De Liguoro and Adolfo Padovan) which sees involved three members of the above-mentioned ensemble from Milan in a "live" key: Francesca Badalini, Andrea Grumelli and Claudio Milano, under the name "I Sincopatici".
In the unreleased song contained in the vinyl with the trio of Sincopatici, in addition to Whale (for the release aka Cpt. Mordecai Wirikik) on electronics, the classical guitarist Alessandro Girotto.
To outline the “Dadaist” connotations there are quotations from Dante merged with sacred texts and a Marian messages from Trevignano Romano, Brecht, images taken from events of the chronicle, geometries at the limit of the executable and conceivable that make the composition a unicum, even if cosmopolitan, in the musical modes between West and East and piezoelectric electronics.
The videoclips that will accompany the pre-order will immerse the listener/viewer in the magical world of cut paper, impromptu painting, piezoelectric recording, and dadaist performing in the fortuitous combinations of esoteric/psychedelic figures and in the psyche of a fortune teller in a state of confusion.
