WORKS 2 by Luigi Archetti

WORKS 1 - 4 is a collection of solo recordings created by Luigi Archetti between 1990 and 1992. It comprises fragmentary sketches, short compositions, and previously lost pieces and archival material, all of which are being released for the first time.
Central to the work is the electric guitar, which serves as the "primary instrument." The sonic landscape is enriched by numerous electronic elements and processed acoustic material, manipulated through diverse techniques.
The musical pieces reflect Archetti’s artistic approach, which treats music as a sculptural element—a concept he later expanded in installations such as Solo (a floating guitar as a sound sculpture). These early recordings are shaped by his interest in the deconstruction of instruments and the interplay between analog sound and electronic processing.
