Comment: the Greek artist Fani Konstantinidou's issue consists of two sections, however, both of them are about droning, droning and...droning. In fact, it needs very adept ability and exquisite perception to make up something appealing from those highly austere and minimalist sounds. On the other side, if it is an artist's purpose to be staying within the limits of the style it is also a challenge. The Greek artist succeeds in the aforementioned aspects by changing the phases, by minimizing or broadening the linear scope of the droning sound. At times it is minimised down to pure humming electricity, at times it is varied by unstable frequencies. Highly experimental, highly abstract which by its intent reminds of Alvin Lucier's compositions. The outing is a part of the discography of Moving Furniture Records.
