VERNUSKY, MIKE - MUSIC FOR FILM AND ELECTRO-THEATRE (CD)

"Quiet design presents a new release by composer and sound artist Mike Vernusky, Music for Film and Electro-Theatre. Handcrafted, cinematic textures of noise and acousmatic sound composed for experimental films and live actors with electronic sound. Whereas Vernusky's previous effort, Blood consisted primarily of acoustic and electroacoustic works, this one inhabits a wider sonic spectrum: from remote field recordings and live actors to disintegrating noise, operatic singers and modern mythological archetypes. Molding sounds like a sculptor, Vernusky provides an alternative mode of communicating his musical language. By employing disruptive devices that puncture listener perceptions, his works become inherently ephemeral and dramatically beautiful. Intense." (label info)
