One of my most used sound source is medium wave radio signals, which I both manipulate to obtain new sounds or to create an imaginary landscape around the music.
In this particular case the main source of noises are:
The interference noises coming from a smartphone, recorded through a guitar pickup
A lot of medium wave radio signals, from various frequencies
A feedbacked / ambient / dronish electric guitar
Those three items are mixed and organized together to create tensions and releases.
Chelidon Frame is an experimental electronic project from Milano, Italy. He works with drones, found
objects, shortwave radio signals, prepared guitars and looped soundscapes.
Since 2013 he released songs for the compilations promoted by “IFAR”, dealing with Musique Concrète.
In 2014, “Antartica” was chosen for Saout Radio’s installation “here.now.where?”, premiered during the V
Marrakech Biennale. He also worked on the first and third edition of “Waywords and Meansigns”, an
unabridged recreation of “Finnegans Wake”; the first edition has also been part of an audio installation
during the “XXV International James Joyce Symposium” in the Senate House Library of the University of
London.
During 2016 a piece called “A Coalescence: Market Street (Re)view“ is chosen by
musicalettronica.it as
part of a field recording open call, which ends up as a sonic installation at the Novecento Museum of
Firenze.
In 2017 is selected for an artistic residence at the San Fedele Centre, Milan; in the same year a sound
collage in the field of radio art is transmitted during the annual edition of Radiophrenia Glaswgow.
He released five studio albums and one EP.
