In 1979 the English guitarist Robert Fripp made a solo concert tour using a guitar, effects and tape loop system named Frippertronics. The albums Let the Power Fall and God Save the Queen/Under Heavy Manners are fully based on recordings taken from this tour. Beyond their beauty, these pieces are a perfect synthesis of what I’m mostly fond of in music: minimalism, guitar, looping, improvisation, ambient music, electronics, gradual processes. With these albums of mine I would like to make a tribute to Robert Fripp’s art and to give my contribution to live looping practise.
