The first single extracted from the album is “Under This Kind Light“. “Do you know how many living species exist in the world? No one knows with certainty: it could range from 3 to 100 million”. Thanks to the free and tireless work of the Sun, life forms have been able to multiply and diversify over billions of years. The song is a celebration of the randomness of the conditions that allowed life, and an ode to life in all its possibilities.
The second song extracted from the album is Propositi per il Nuovo Anno galattico which borrows a piece from Filippo Bonaventura (astrophysicist and science communicator) and embeds it into a track that intertwines a 7/4 bassline with a steady kick drum, like the galaxy’s arms coil around its black hole. Many voices come together in this narrative to remind us of how small we are, yet how great an opportunity it is to be part of it all.
Frank Sinutre is an electronic project born in 2011 in Mantova (Italy) that uses homemade electronic instruments, traditional ones, and algorithmic visuals.
It was formed by Isi Pavanelli (ReactaBOX, synth, beat maker, Drummabox, vocoder) and Michele K. Menghinez (guitar, bass, lap steel guitar, vocals, drums, percussion).
Since the beginning, they played homemade electronic instruments such as Reactabox (inspired by the famous Reactable, it consists of a MIDI controller where rhythmic loops, melody sequences and effects are triggered and controlled through mysterious cubes placed and moved upon a special interactive screen) and Drummabox (an acoustic drum machine based on Arduino). During live performances, they also use traditional instruments (guitar, looping, bass, synth, lap steel guitar) and a homemade algorithmic visual show that consists of a flow of images processed and re-elaborated through the audio signal.
