This stuff simply defines cinematic. Its orchestral nuances and muffled piano, spectral voices and effective interlude transitions, among other elements, serve to elucidate this formative strategy. As the second release for young label Spectraliquid (based in Athens, Greece), "Blackfilm" reflects a promising musical direction and, more significantly, astute artist selectivity.

although i probably don't need to call this to your attention, the Weekly Six has been shelved, indefinitely. this has been the case since around the beginning of the year, before traveling in India for two months and moving to San Francisco. other areas of life have demanded far too much attention as of late (see above), and such frivolities must unfortunately face the knife as a result.
keep watching this space for new music reviews and who knows what else...

However tempting it is to generalize "Obsessive Surrealism" as bland overall, it is important to recognize the technique from which it springs. Although it may fall short in the ears of the discerning listener, glimmers of skillful achievement still manage to shine through its uninspiring tone.

Overall well-produced and exceptionally effective, "Chemical Nature" should serve as an indication of Pulici's talent, not to mention a harbinger of hopefully more good things to come from the a034 project.
