New review
JOE FRAWLEY - EMPEROR OF DAFFODILS (Autoproduzione in Limited edition) GUSTOSO Promettente il nuovo lavoro di Joe Frawley, pianista/compositore del Connecticut, nonché artista del sound collage. I suoi accostamenti a reazione poetica determinano una texture non convenzionale, in cui anche il pianoforte assume un colore «alterato», come nella imminente release Daughters of Industry, o addirittura fuorviante, come nel particolarissimo Narcisse. In nota Agostino De Rosa, segnala come Emperor of Daffodils sia un album dedicato al mito del doppio: lo sguardo voyeristico di Frawley si posa sul femminino allo specchio: la spezzatura del suono pianistico in Narciso sembra allora evocare le (insane?) fratture di Prevert. (Girolamo de Simone, Il Manifesto - Italia)

About Me
- Joe Frawley
- Joe Frawley (b. July 4, 1971) is a composer, pianist and visual artist whose works blur the boundary between music and sound art. By layering and juxtaposing original piano music with processed found sounds, field recordings, and recontextualized speech fragments, the composer creates challenging yet accessible sound assemblages bearing a hypnotic dreamlike quality.
