	vital reviews sine fiction!
	ellende - ti con zero

more music by ellende, a dutch musician living in japan. his music is 
made available through a whole bunch of cdr and mp3 releases and 
resides mainly in the underground. this release is a mp3 release for 
the sine fiction series, part of no type. the musicians set a sci-fi 
novel to music. _ti con zero_ by italo calvino was translated in 1993 
as 'time and the hunter' and is a collection of short stories 'that 
deal with the paradoxes of space and time'. musicwise ellende wants 
to create tension between what we know, science, and what we don't 
know - fiction. ellende plays the drone card in these five pieces. 
long stretched out pieces, played on a bunch of synthesizers, in 
general in a sombre and dark, atmospheric setting. not exactely the 
new soundtrack for '2001', for it's a bit too much without dynamics. 
it stays throughout with these pieces on one surface, but at the same 
time it's a nice lo-fi drone music affair. in a true underground 
fashion ellende depicts his own otherworld sound. - frans de waard
