Caterina Barbieri will release a new album in June.
Baribieri wrote Myuthafoo in 2019 at the same time as Ecstatic Computation, which she released on Editions Mego in March. She regards it as a sister album.
Both albums are based on creative sequencing processes that playfully unravel Barbieri’s deep-rooted interest in time, space, memory, and emotion. Barbieri had been touring excessively at the time, and her process began to shift in response to that nomadic energy. Using the Orthogonal ER-101 modular sequencer, Barbieri manually programmed patterns into the device and fed them into her arsenal of noise generators, trialling different combinations at each show.
Barbieri has spent the best part of a decade breaking apart the rigid structures of electronic music. In 2017, she released Patterns of Consciousness, a fusion of minimalism and trance-inducing synth experimentation, on Important Records.
