Piam by Piam

Recorded in the beginning of 2000, Piam still sounds very up to date in a view of its outstanding virtuosity of a sound treatment and a perfect completeness in music.

This project is unique in many ways: sounding in the best tradition of such highly acclaimed happenings, as Mego or Kranky and such artists as Microstoria or Oval, it goes far away, because emotional constituent of music is on the first place, it is not just another piece of random glitchy sound design.

Piam was created only by means of analogue equipment — every click and glitch is produced by the manually scratched vinyl records and cut tape loops, all sounds are programmed and composed with analogue synthesizers and devices, guitar, saxophone and trumpet.

Our public singing operate as therapy, ritual, assuagement and celebration.
