ZBEEN (Gianluca Favaron - Ennio Mazzon) - Tonal Whiplash . CD

After a 3 years hiatus, Zbeen (Entr'acte, Ripples) comes back with a cohesive album filled with unpredictable dynamics and the duo's distinctive dense complexity.

Zbeen is Gianluca Favaron and Ennio Mazzon.

Tonal whiplash is a dissonance between tones, a lack of narrative coherence or the evil headache caused by a nonsensical explanation. One might argue that this is the defining characteristic of modern political discourse. Zbeen (Gianluca Favaron and Ennio Mazzon) translates this jarring disconnection into music, daring the listener to locate patterns and linear equations. But the mind is more creative than one might think. The more one plays these tracks, the more one detects some overall threads: isolation, dehumanization, menace. The warm cover image reflects a false sense of security.
