L’IMPORTANT> A soundtrack in search of a film

In this fictional soundtrack, Nad Spiro evokes a solitary space drift aboard a missing spacecraft: L’Important.

...Skeletal formations, the sort someone going insane from solitude would make from leftover sparks of electricity and corroded synthesizers that swell, crackle and drift. ... (Then) Arruti reaches for her guitar, looping and distorting chords into spectral figures, humming half-remembered words and melodies under haunting booms. (Antonio Poscic) THE WIRE issue 462

...The rusty synth tones depict a spaceship in trouble. There are faulty electricity lines sparking and buzzing around, and the sense of loneliness and paranoia is made audible... I found all of this most enjoyable and Nad Spiro delivers another strong work. (Frans de Waard) VITAL WEEKLY 1330

...Hipnotizado como Cesare, el oyente es en esos reportes de bitácora arrastrado a metálicas tinieblas, cuyos cantos son los mismos que los de la sirena Parténope, por lo tanto fatales. Componen la segunda sección “canciones perdidas”. Tenuemente melódicas, algunas con voz, parpadean estas fosforescencias por un radar sonoro en el que, más que ilustrar, sugieren fractales secuencias de erótica frialdad, sutilmente inquietantes visualizaciones de misterios no resueltos, que Spiro depura estilísticamente sin que ello reste suspense ni a forma ni a fondo. (Jaime Gonzalo) ROCKDELUX

about

Nad Spiro

Sonic agent Nad Spiro explores unfrequented AudioZones in the outer peripheries of electronica and stretches the sound reach of her guitar with a perverted use of this instrument.

Under this anonymous alias, Rosa Arruti's spectral presence in
experimental music has adopted finally the form of a solo project as sole habitant of a
world of complex electronic textures and sound fictions. ... more
