Description
Italian musician, instrument-builder, producer and composer, ALESSANDRO CORTINI, has announced details of his latest release, Nati Infiniti, a 40-minute piece separated into five movements, based on an immersive audio installation that ran across four floors of the Museu de Lisboa’s Fábrica da Moagem, a disused flour mill. Nati Infiniti reimagines the installation - commissioned by Sónar Lisboa 2022 - capturing the ambience of the original piece, where each of the four floors of the cavernous mill evoked a different state through Cortini’s sound design. Constantly unfolding as the listener travelled through the building, the album harnesses the movement of the piece, highlighting the interconnectedness of all things. The hypnotic work - which utilises the Strega instrument that Cortini co-designed with Make Noise - evolves across 40 minutes, and was mixed and mastered by Marta Salogni (Björk, Depeche Mode, Lucrecia Dalt) into five movements. This interpretation of the work will be available on 4 October 2024 on vinyl (with an embossed silver mirror board sleeve), CD (with a clear varnished gatefold mirror board sleeve) and digitally. Cortini debuted the live audio-visual performance of Nati Infiniti at Berlin’s Atonal Festival and, after a series of sold-out performances - each showcasing an improvised version of Nati Infiniti with no two concerts ever the same - Cortini will embark on a tour of North America and Europe throughout ’24 and into ‘25 – with more dates to be added. alessandrocortini.com
