Dramatest

ROCCHI FABOR CHIAROSI

There would not be other words needed to describe "Dramatest", a release of experimental library music published in 1974 by Fonovideo and signed by Oscar Rocchi and Fabio Fabor. Rocchi, an excellent pianist and composer, had worked with heavy weights of Italian jazz such as Dino Piana e Oscar Valdambrini while developing a career as author of library music. Some of his works had been recently reissued, like "Erbe selvatiche" and "Pop Paraphrenia"...others are yet to be re-discovered, for instance the two volumes of "Stressorama", co-written with Barigozzi and Fabor. Of the latter, we had been able to appreciate works like "Pape Satan", "Infinit" or beautiful library music releases like "Aquarium". "Dramatest" is the encounter of these two great musicians, 14 explorations of the electronic spectrum, casting pure experimentalism, melody and no filters whatsoever. A subtle eccentricity permeates this work, reaching a whole new level with its titles names: there is no other way to classify titles such as "Toccata 2000", "Agopuntura", "Ostinadanza", "Industrial shok", "Nero sud" and "Tastodrama". A further element that contributes in making "Dramatest" one of the best examples of the lost art of Italian libraries.
