More experimental electronica from Aucan

Other | Thursday 10th December 2015 | Christina

Italian trio Aucan drop their highly anticipated debut LP Stelle Fisse, via Kowloon Records.

Jo Ferliga, Franceso D’Abbracio and Dario Dessano have been making waves with their unique brand of dark, minimalist electronica for the last couple of years. Having shared stages with the likes of Matmos, Chemical Brothers and Fuck Buttons in over 300 live shows, the group has become known for using exclusively live hardware for their distinctive live performances.

Stelle Fisse - meaning ‘fixed stars’ - lives up to its cosmic name, by delivering a supernatural out-of-space ambience. The ominous tone for the record is set by the opening track, the aptly named ‘Disgelo’, meaning ‘thaw’ in the group’s native tongue, which builds slowly with echoing synths, haunting vocals and slow repetitive percussion. 'Disto' which fuses live instrumentation and electronics blurring the line between man and machine, and 'Cosmic Dub', the group's spin on dub-techno, epitomise Aucan's creative approach to music making.
