BBIIAANNCCOO, the new solo project of Davide Bianchera (member of Baobab Romeo) based in Mantova (Italy), combines experimental electronics, field recordings, samples, and the deeper frequencies created by the electric bass. Loops with different durations (created by multiple loop stations) overlap in endless and random interlockings, stratified loops making the arrangements free to create and destroy themselves like clouds. The atmospheres were created to approach the ambient/noise soundscapes of artists such as Tim Hecker, Ben Frost, and Fennesz.
The idea for the creation of the Ep “HABITAT” is inspired by three novels: “Die Wand” by Marlen Haushofer, “Korrektur” by Thomas Bernhard, and “Minotaurus” by Friedrich Dürrenmatt.
A thin imaginary leading thread combines these three stories: the environments surrounding the protagonists influence their lives and actions. The places where the characters are born, and grow up, or the places that suddenly appear around them, have a weight and influence all their future choice. The three tracks immerse the listener in a mixture of evocative sounds and atmospheres, suggesting to the listener the vision of open and infinite spaces (Vetro), narrow and claustrophobic places as if they were backrooms (Labirinto), and the search for perfect geometries (Cono).
Davide is a long-time friend, he prepared a playlist of his favourites and music that inspired this solo project.
