Intoxicatingly romantic, and romantically intoxicating. This record entices with whispers and fragments of lo-fi messages enclosed in fragranced envelopes. Federico exercises great brevity, which here begets intimacy.
Federico Madeddu Giuntoli is an Italian multidisciplinary artist. Mostly self-taught, his art is based on groundedness and simplicity, focused on the complexity of the human journey in a non-aggressive, warm, and unfiltered way.
His works, ranging from contemporary art, music, writing, and photography, are usually delicate and subtle, yet unequivocally tuned into a certain kind of pop communication, however essential and experimental it may be.
The Text and the Form is his first solo album, featuring German e-poetess Antye Greie, aka AGF, and Japanese artist Moskitoo. It is a collection of 11 minimal and intimate short songs where piano fragments, lonely guitar solos, spoken words, and evocative vocals resonate with processed microsounds and lo-fi field recordings, creating a concise and deeply moving journey into romance and a sense of mystery.
In the artist’s words, “The album shaped itself according to a loose process of refinement and layering. A long, undisturbed assembling across more than a decade, often against my own will to reach a definitive form. If any relevance in this work can be found, I would say it resides in its capability to deliver a rare sense of vulnerability, longing, and aliveness together—an aroma of improvisation and instability mixed with an inexplicable impression of perfection.”
