PAN M 360 / TOP 100 : OZmotic & Fennesz – Senzatempo 

· by Théo Reinhardt

Over the past few weeks, our most active record reviewers have had the task of choosing their 5 favorite recordings of 2023, and here they are. This selection is unique and quite different of all you can find on the web or through traditional medias.

Senzatempo sees Italian multidisciplinary duo OZmotic join forces with iconic Austrian electronic composer and guitarist Christian Fennesz. Together, they seek to “give musical form to a surreal calm, but also to magical and uncertain emotional states”. As well as achieving this goal, the album has a very distinctive sound signature. Recurrently, a landslide of high and low frequencies, at the extremes of our range, passes over the rest of the composition, like rolling grass in a western. It settles over the oceans of sound, the clouds with their clear edges, and operates in that gray area between the organic and the synthetic. The whole album, in fact, unfolds on this tension. Griching impulses, bird sounds, warm winds and waves rub up against each other one moment and harmonize the next. All the while, we dream, return and dream again, amidst a landscape that captures our sensibilities, conscious or otherwise.
