TITLE: Dictatorship Of Dead Labour
MAURIZIO BIANCHI Meets ROADSIDE PICNIC – Dictatorship of Dead Labour
Dictatorship of Dead Labour is a collaborative release that
features the imaginative efforts of Birmingham’s
visual/installation/conceptual artist Justin Wiggan’s solo noise project
Roadside Picnic and Maurizio Bianchi (M.B.), an Italian pioneer of
industrial music. This intriguing project marries sound experimentalist
Justin Wiggan’s immersed expedition of field recording, samples, treated
loops and drones manifested through the calming nature of Maurizio
Bianchi’s almost ambient soundscapes.
Placating murmurs are faintly obvious in the distant background of the first track Dictatorship of Dead Labour.
Here, minimal layers of white noise, radio frequencies and field
recording hums and hisses build up progressively over voices of rhythmic
recitals in search of deliverance. The manipulative development of
ambient noise soundscapes encapsulates the aural meditative environment,
giving the track a much in-depth nuance around the realm of solace that
has been built into the overall surrounding.
In The Clearing, there is still maintenance of the
minimalistic approach to sound implementation. However, the static
layers of textural electronic interference soon break apart as they
escalate to a peak and then arrive to an abrupt burst of abrasive
gut-wrenching white noise. The overall progressive build up of organic
sound segments drowned under impending layers of textural organic loops
manipulate the listener into an abysmal feeling of desolation amid
complex sonic chaos. This eventual end of harsh industrial pandemonium
shatters the peace and tranquility of the ambient trance-like aural
echo. The final epiphany is how the line between art and music gets
distorted through deeper exploration and discovery of space and void,
demonstrating the disunion of parameters between sound and silence,
everything and nothing.
