[Raster-Noton,2009]
Carsten Nicolai, also known under the moniker Alva Noto has established himself as an artist-musician amongst current electronic sound and visual designers who are using art and music as hybrid tools to create microscopic views of creative processes.From my point of view, Alva Noto can not be considered as a musician but only as an avant-garde artist.
He has also performed in many important museums of modern and contemporary art such as, the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum NY, San Francisco Museum of Modern Art Moma, Centre Pompidou of Paris and more...
His latest project Xerrox Vol.2 is definitely a must have album!
Be careful though... It is a blend of noise and melodies and you must be prepared, unless you are already a fan of Alva Noto's previous works.
Genre: Avant Garde/Home Listening/Modern Classical
In other words: "Jaw-dropping" music for the open-minded!
Must Listen: Xerrox Sora
