Urban Noises


New Years' Day 2000 performance


Sat 1st Jan 2000 (The Last Year of The Millennium)


Psychedelic pictures of abandoned factories by Silvia and Gabriele and Claudio's floaded garage were the perfect background for the 'urban noises' performance. Each party guest had to prepare its own performance. Tracks are partly based on pre-existing unpublished materials, remixed for the occasion. Some are possibly lost forever, but the following four 'urban noises' are here to stay.
