80年代中期にLimboプロジェクトを始動、実名のソロではエレクトロアコースティックを軸に作曲を行い、時にはHermann Nitsch、Nurse With Wound、Jacob Kirkegaard、Psychic TVの音源を使用したカットアップミックスを作ったりと、多彩な音楽性を持つイタリアのコンポーザーGianluca Becuzzi。軍事建築物として使用された特別なタイプのシェルター"バンカー"にて作り上げたという、ある意味この人物の真骨頂的エレクトロアコースティックが詰め込まれた2019年12月の新作[The Bunker Years]。余計な色は出さずひたすら音の方向性を探っていく、徹底的に音の強度およびハードコアさを追求した大推薦の一枚。



In wartime, the bunker is a special type of shelter where you can protect yourself from the enemy's military attacks. I purposely translated the original meaning of the bunker, intended as military architecture, according to my idea of a protected area. In this sense, bunkers can be any private place where one determines one's isolation. Bunker is a physical space created to organize useful materials, reflect, conceive, design and create in total autonomy. From this concrete dimension, the bunker then goes on to trace an existential boundary, a dimension of the mind, a feeling and feeling other-than-the-rest that is outside. Bunker is a self-exclusive perimeter of inner resistance, a refuge from the outside world, from its rules and its conditioning. Bunker is the critical observatory, the secret hermitage from which to fight one's personal war against reality, when it becomes unacceptable, against its manifestations of idiocy and vulgarity. Bunker is the place to sublimate the incurable disagreement in divergent vision, generativity and art. I, my friends and those who have been with me during this time, we called the bunker the house / studio where I lived and produced music for years. Gianluca Becuzzi (September 2019)
