Anastasia Vronski "The sputnik" - EP - elru085 2010

Para o Solstício de Verão, a Net Label Electro Rucini tem o privilégio de apresentar uma presença anunciada em anteriores edições equinociais e solsticiais.

A menina das neves, residente na cidade de Perm, no nordeste da Russia Europeia, realiza um voo espacial para ouvirmos livremente:














Celebra-se a corrida ao espaço, nas palavras de Anastasia Vronski:

"The Sputnik was created with space flight simulators in mind.
The idea was to go in outer space, but in a video game from the eighties.
The basis of the piece is a series of noise waves, mostly modulated washes of white noise to create the illusion of speed, with layers of higher-pitched gimmicks that illustrate the functioning of the spacecraft. (...) I hope I have managed to convey the absolute modernity of the space race, a race for modernity within the cold-war and the retro feeling it has gained as time went by.
The whole space-race thing today seems abstract and maybe over-simplified,
just as this sonic depiction of The Sputnik is.
Anyway, I do not forget the importance of the Sputnik in the History of the USSR and the world and I hope this piece also carries the true tenderness I have for this famous spacecraft."
