about

** If your order contains a pre-order record, it will be held and shipped complete when pre-order stock arrives. **

All physical pre-orders include an original Tiziano Popoli DX7 patch bank containing custom sounds used during the making of the music on Burn the Night / Bruciare la Notte, along with instructions on how to use it.

Burn the Night / Bruciare la Notte: Original Recordings, 1983–1989 is the first archival collection of music by the Italian minimalist composer Tiziano Popoli. In his music, Popoli framed the Italian avant-garde and New Wave of the 80s through an architectural aesthetic distinctly detailed by a Yamaha DX7 synthesizer, Roland TR909 drum machine, and early sampling technology. These fourteen pieces represent unreleased recordings for installations, theater, and radio broadcasts, and they each beam with unusual melody, radiant color, and generative life.

RVNG / Freedom To Spend would like to thank Tiziano for allowing us access to his archives and his limitless patience with this project, and Arturo Popoli for serving as a crucial translation conduit. We would also like to thank Bradford Bailey for going above and beyond with the liner notes, and Joseph Ghosn for his early efforts grappling with the subject. Finally, we would like to thank Marco Dalpane, Massimo Simonini, Riccardo Sinigaglia, and Giovanni Venosta.
