GUILIO ALDINUCCI | Goccia (Home Normal)
In 2012, Giulio released Tarsia on Nomadic Kids Republic to critical acclaim. It was a slow burner , but seemed to hook people with its clever entwining of encapsulating melody and delicately place field recordings. His follow-up Goccia, takes a rather thunderous step in the direction of a bang-on classic with one of the most complete, catchy, and ambitious albums heard in a long time. Far more straight-up rhythmic that his previous releases, Goccia balances organic layers with some fantastic melodic synth hooks, flying straight through a maze of frequencies from drones, bleeps, bloops, background music, jingles, jangles, gut-punching subs, and whatever else he can. Giulio Aldinucci has thrown everything at us in one complete, perfectly formed album.
