Comment: Neon Paralleli is
an Italian label whose discography involves many avant-garde gems being relevant
today and will obviously be relevant tomorrow either. A Short Apnea`s eponymous
release is one of such albums (initially it was recorded in 1999 on Beware! and
Wallace Records). More profoundly, the 10-track issue is built upon humming
drones, different noises, pulsating electronics, some spoken word snippets in
Italian and reverb drenched guitar chords which are there to conjure up different
patterns from relatively clear-cut guitar progressions to more mysterious
ambiances and neurotic studies ready to sustain thought-provoking feel and
tickling suspense. In a word, it is a sophisticated one for your brain and soul.
