Giulio Erasmus & The end of the worm
Giulio Erasmus’s music swirls into unintelligible mutterings, songs, and collapsing collages, all made with the idea of keeping things simple. It is post-punk p-funk, pre-post dub. It is a kind of proto-music that delves into post-punk’s past and confronts it with new ideas of abstraction, space, and effectiveness. Between alienating and concrete, making the hiss […]
