Michael Borella Unus et Trinus (one and three) is an aptly titled release from collaborators Myers, Sonologyst (Raffaele Pezzella), and Bröndum. All are well-established sound artists, with Myers having a legacy of several decades. This offering features a 20-minute trio piece as well as a pair of shorter solo works from each artist.

Caesar Unus et Trinus is a work that stands out for its ability to unite three unique musical visions into a single sonic experience. The collaboration between David Lee Myers, Sonologyst and Lars Bröndum manifests itself in an album that transcends the boundaries of individual artists, offering listeners a deep immersion into the world of sonic experimentation.

about

Among the musicians I have appreciated the most in recent years, a special place is undoubtedly reserved for Lars Bröndum and David Lee Myers. From 2015 onwards, I had the pleasure of playing their songs on the radio transmission The Recognition Test frequently, and inviting them to participate in numerous compilations published by the Unexplained Sounds network. Over time, I realized that, albeit in different ways and forms, their music could integrate and complement that of my Sonologyst project. This led me to the idea of inviting them to collectively produce tracks. From our exchanges of samples, audio experiments, music segments, a long piece of over 20 minutes emerged, which I believe effectively encapsulates how our musical sensibilities complemented each other. We then added individually composed tracks, resulting in this album, "Unus Et Trinus," in which the listeners can hear the music of each of the three participants separately but also the collective piece. This allows them to get an "almost real-time" idea of how three different sonic worlds can create a synthesis.

This Is Darkness
Now this is very cool – an album featuring 3 incredibly talented musicians! With individual offerings from each artist, as well as the wonderful collaborative track, Unus (created from exchanges of samples, audio experiments, music segments), this is an album that cannot fail to impress. The music here is dark ambient, with an experimental edge that take things to the next level. If you’re looking for something that pushes the boundaries of the genre, while retaining the essence of it, this is an album that you simply have to check out. Fantastic!

David Lee Myers, hailing from New York City, is an accomplished sound and visual artist. His journey in sound manipulation began in 1980, utilizing electronic circuitry of his own design for sound production, both under his name and as Arcane Device. Since 1987, he has pioneered "Feedback Music," a distinctive approach that predates the "no-input mixer" trend by several years. In this genre, audio processors feed off their own outputs and those of other processors via custom-built matrix mixers, enabling these devices to create their unique sonic narratives. More recently, Myers has incorporated modified video circuits to produce complementary visual presentations during his performances. He has an extensive discography, with over thirty recordings released by prominent labels such as Generator, Recommended, Line, Silent, Pogus, RRRecords, Staalplaat, Monochrome Vision, and more. Notably, he has collaborated with electronic music pioneer Tod Dockstader, as well as artists like Gen Ken Montgomery, Thomas Dimuzio, Ellen Band, guitarist Marco Oppedisano, and Dirk Serries (Vidna Obmana).

Sonologyst is the brainchild of Italian producer Raffaele Pezzella, known for his meticulous exploration of the intersection between music and contemporary mythologies. Sonologyst's sonic landscape spans from Fortean documentary-style soundscapes to the creation of post-industrial auditory experiences. He fuses various technologies, including analog machines, software, and, more recently, AI, drawing inspiration from the early electronic music pioneers. Since 2014, Pezzella has curated Unexplained Sounds, a 'Global Network of Aural Disorientation.' Under this umbrella, Unexplained Sounds Group was founded in 2015, now encompassing subsidiary labels like Eighth Tower Records, ZeroK, and Reverse Alignment. Pezzella is also a publisher of books and hosts a streaming radio program titled 'The Recognition Test.' Sonologyst's works have been published by various labels, including Cold Spring Records, Unexplained Sounds Group, Eighth Tower Records, Gravity's Rainbow Tapes, and Attenuation Circuit.

Lars Bröndum, PhD, is a versatile artist, serving as a composer, live electronics performer, theorist, and guitarist. His compositions have graced international stages in countries such as Sweden, Japan, Germany, Scotland, Lithuania, Russia, Latvia, England, USA, Spain, and Mexico. They have also found their way onto the airwaves, being broadcast on radio and webradio in Germany, England, Italy, Sweden, and the USA. Lars Bröndum's music is a captivating exploration of the interplay between acoustic and electronic instruments, residing on the boundary between structured compositions and spontaneous improvisation. His works are characterized by cyclic processes, irregular ostinatos, fragmented gestures, and microtonal clusters. Bröndum is actively involved in the electroacoustic music scene, notably at EMS (Electroacoustic Music in Sweden), and he has held positions on the boards of Fylkingen (a society for new music and intermedia art), SEAMS (Society of Electroacoustic Music in Sweden), and VEMS (Composers at EMS) from 2007 to 2008. He has also contributed as a board member to the Swedish Section of ICEM (International Confederation for Electronic Music). Bröndum often composes for and collaborates with ensembles such as ReSurge, ExSurge, AGAIG, and Spiral Cycle. He is a key figure in projects like the "Ensemble SFW" and maintains a duo partnership with Sten-Olof Hellstrom. His dedication to the craft has earned him composer grants from Konstnärsnämnden (Swedish Art Council), STIM (Swedish Performing Rights Society), and accolades from FST (Swedish Composer's Society). Moreover, Lars Bröndum is the founder of the independent record label Antennae Media.
