*200 copies limited edition* Furtherset, the musical project of Venice-based composer and visual artist Tommaso Pandolfi, debuts with his first album for Kohlhaas, the sixth in his career, 'Wounds of Melody'.
A layered image of devastation and beauty, where Renaissance tears merge with the incandescence and violence of phosphorus, the artwork is the first encounter in the emotional itinerary that unfolds in the five tracks making up the LP.

Over its forty-one minutes, the album's beatless but mesmerizing promenade is punctuated by mute, eternal and unexploded melodies. Awaiting and ineffability stand as the compositional pillars of this spellbinding cycle, where each chapter serves as a model and measure for an innermost tour of heartstrings.

A sense of stasis pervades it, anticipating the arrival of something extremely fragile and tender, until a fracture transforms this expectation into great walls of sound. Opposing gravities clash and melt into each other: delicate pads, dislocated echoes, detuned wavetable swirls and stretched leads all converge towards a frail singularity. This sonic rapture vanishes as it appeared, flashing back to the melody, the bass line, and the subtle synthetic timbres, repeated and bit by bit modulated from the beginning, finally eclipsing into evanescent codas. Through the repetition of structures that gradually rarefy over time, 'Wounds of Melody' aims to evoke and unlock possibilities, echoing Clarice Lispector’s idea of «suppressing facts and privileging sensations.»
