LUCA MELE'S APPLEZ91: AUDACITY MUSIC (VOL 1)


Luca Mele is a noise maestro from West Liguria, Italy and the creator of Applez91: a project presented via the fledgling label, Musica Orizzontale (hosted by Bandcamp). 


Applez91 now gives the industrial realm an album called Audacity Music (Vol 1). Its varied noises were filtered "with a mobile phone and the audio editing program Audacity." How simple and yet how clever. What ensues is unpretentious in intent, shaking the senses for no other cause than to do so. 


For example, the paper-crinkling "unwrap", the bombing "wind", the feral "Outside" and the vacuumed "MECHA-WIND" allude to bursts of inner flight and voids that invite tensions among unpolished commonality. 


In contrast, "Fried Chicken" (along with its "Harsh Noise" bonus track) performs as a simmering spell for relaxed feasting, where one's taste buds become flecked with the scrumptious taste of small-boned specimens: grotesque, when one considers the matter, but too damn delectable to deter.


"Triticarne" dances to a similar, sizzling (if not vibrating) beat, as does the foreign-tongued "CC", the flushing "L'Ora Del The" and the distant-traffic barking of "GodspeedYouWhiteHorns!". To be frank, I don't know what any of these particular tracks mean, but their formless frames do an excellent job of expanding the cerebral canvas, allowing one to pontificate weird whims upon them.  


"DoomClean", on the other hand, is its own makeshift animal, scouring inside and out, up and down and all around: a smidgen of this and that from all the rest to establish a savage specialization.


"Sanremo, March 2020" stands thereafter as its arguable, audio antithesis, commemorating simple shouts of idyllic play, which plaster an amiable adios. 


On the sublime whole, Audacity Music is the ideal wall of sound for any backdrop, but once one focuses on its intricacies, it induces a diverse, in-your-face hypnosis: beyond a doubt a stand-out premiere from an artist destined to reappear down the audacious, industrial line:
