Adriano Zanni announces new album Post Dub Cities, music and photos for cities without witnesses! You can’t miss this record.
Post Dub Cities — echoes and reverberations of dub grant us access to an unknown future, as yet untold – in which we are nothing more than a vague memory. A minimalist, enveloping, solemnb beat, like the symbols on a map that no one can read anymore, yet which scatters clues to be explored without fear of getting lost.
As if we were absent, a civilisation that has long since vanished: human presence has dissolved, preparing to fade into oblivion. The precise depiction of places through field recordings, and the black-and-white imagery, give rise to apparitions, hallucinations, and memories. The less present we are, the more we seek meaning. We resist abandonment and the indifference of time.
Every place – be it an abandoned mining settlement on an island in Svalbard, or a ghost town in Pennsylvania evacuated following an underground fire that has been burning for sixty years at a depth of one hundred metres – leaves questions unanswered, shrouds itself in mystery, and makes us wonder, ceaselessly: what happened here?
