OVX004 : Daniele Morelli / Vexations Vol.4

What Daniele says about his proposal:

"The amount of memories I have thinking about Erik Satie’s music is endless, so when I heard that Off record wanted to record an entire version of Vexations with different artists i decided to give my contribution.
It’s a composition which means something like annoyances.
Sometimes art is virtuosism, sometimes is something else. In this case Vexations is like a purification ceremony.
A personal purification through the repetition of irregular chords, that’s why Vexations.
I decided to record the theme and its harmonisations with sounds and effects to cause even more troubles but also reflections and meditations at times. All the effects and sounds that you will listen have been made with the guitar."

"Pedals I use are Freeze, Holy Grail Reverb, Malekko analog Delay,
Maxon Overdrive, an Octaver and Ditto Looper."
