WK569
WK569 was founded in 2009, at the StudioWK di Esine (Bs) by Federico Troncatti, Ezio Martinazzi and Pier Enrico Villa.
The project is a synthesis of musical language that results from the interaction of man and machine articulated on different levels of perception, both “electronic self-generating” (elettromatic) and “theme improvisation” through development of sound architectures managed in real time. WK569 activity takes place mainly in the electronic and electro-acoustic field: the sound material is generated and treated from structured algorithms, GFA language, and written for an Atari computer via MIDI messages. These messages are then sent to the sound generators (VST, VSTI, Yamaha TX816, Kurzweil R2500) or samplers. The group has been invited to participate in notable events including: "Vexations-Variations" at the Triennale of Milan, the Concerts of Sincronie Association of Milan, as well as the headquarters of the Slovak Radio in Bratislava, and the festival of electronic music and electroacoustic "Atelier XXI". WK569 also received the “Sincronie 2011” award with the composition "Exurdans eclipsis 7D8" in memory of Fausto Romitelli.

Omaggio a Marino Zuccheri
Marino Zuccheri was the sound engineer of the famous Milan RAI Electronic Music Studio, where he helped to shape the music of great experimentalists like Berio, Nono, Maderna, Cage, Pousseur and many others.
This 12” EP is an homage to the great figure of Marino Zuccheri, which inspired more the ideas behind the record than the process itself. Every electronic musician, dealing with any kind of hardware should know the importance of his work and this record is WK569’s thankful chant to the italian godfather of the machines.

I listen to this album when I'm in a bad spot mentally, usually when I haven't slept in a day or two. it doesn't require much if any brain power to comprehend these songs, just sick beats and massive riffage from the big riff himself, Dylan Carlson. this album goes well with my disorders. compared to Mr. Carlson's other works, this isn't as bad ass or face melting, but it sure as hell holds a special place in my heart as the album I can comfortably and calmly listen to when things go to sh!t.
