“WOUND is the most intimate and isolationist side of the musician and sound agitator Massimo Onza aka Truculentboy, member of drone duo Compoundead and punk core project Tronco; from 2004 to 2009 he’s been head honcho of Mastro Titta Productions and from 2010 of SINCOPE Records, as well as current curator of MammaMiaQuantoSangue zine.
The two pieces that make up his cassette for Dokuro are initially characterized by static sound elements, isolated pulses and electrical crackles. With the passing of minutes details take shape and sounds are listened as if they were intercepted through the use of an imaginary directional microphone aimed at the darkness to a dark room, revealing the teeming hidden life. Some frequencies make their way through others: clashing, colliding and chasing with each other, giving rise to the climax of the piece. The compositional strategy proposed by WOUND is expressed in two different contexts: the title track of the a-side is a studio recording and for the b-side a live recording at the Dal Verme in Rome. With this release Massimo Truculentboy Onza manages to combine the sincere roughness of noise with the aptitude of the electroacoustic improvisation that usually prompts the listener to an attentive and participatory listening.
