WARNING BELLS

by Alvaro Domene & Tom Law

"The Iluso discography expanded with the release of Warning Bells, a collaboration between Alvaro Domene and Tom Law. Is it heady? Of course it is. The lead stream, "Stigmergic", merges spider-esque guitar skittering with 'photons spinning around your head'-style electronics a la Iannis Xenakis's electroacoustic works. When the more legato leads kick in, you're either all aboard this train or not. Naturally, I'm all aboard. It's one of my favorite albums of the year so far."
- Wolf Rambatz

All music composed and performed by
Alvaro Domene [seven string electric guitar and electronics] and
Tom Law [Max/MSP, viola da gamba].
