Off World, the studio project of Sandro Perri and Lorenz Peter (Corpusse, Processor) has so far released Volumes 1 and 2 of three planned LPs for Constellation, “rich in deconstructed melody, aleatory composition techniques, and interplay between acoustic and synthetic-electronic instrumentation”.
Sandro says of their new video, premiered here today, in the label’s Corona Borealis series:
“Impulse Controller (Pre-Dub)” was born in the Off World 1 sessions and developed during the making of Off World 2. A “pre-dub” (not to be confused with a “rough mix” or a “demo”) is made long before a track meets its death and subsequent rebirth as the “final mix”. It has a special and usually private purpose – to hear the sounds as they are, without too much concern for the musical composition – and to notice what impulses arise in response to them. This version in particular is a showcase for a blistering first take by trumpeter Nicole Rampersaud.
