Metal Aether': 'Metal Aether' continues to explore Lea's acute interest in the nature of acoustics and the harmonic accumulation of sound, with it's four pieces having been recorded in Le Havre, France in a former military base, and in New York City, at ISSUE Project Room

With her horn, Lea produces pulsing minimalist patterns, transcendent drones, and upper register squalls that envelop these spaces in waves of overtones, microtones, and psychoacoustic effects. 'Metal Aether' feels like the defning statement from an artist in elevated control of their form - a summary of concepts, ideas, and emotions given life from one's mind and heart. Lea demonstrates the desirable ability to use her art to sincerely communicate in a language of one's own personal invention, utilizing music and sound for their most meaningful and human purposes. 'Resonant Field': It is with tremendous pleasure that we announce 'Resonant Field', the brand new full-length album from New York- based sound artist and composer Lea Bertucci. Following up her critically acclaimed 2018 NNA full- length 'Metal Aether', Lea continues her devotion to the exploration of physical spaces by way of sound, channeled through her alto saxophone. Where her previous work investigated a variety of locations around the globe, 'Resonant Field' narrows her focus to one space in particular - the Marine A Grain Elevator at Silo City in Buffalo, New York. This formation of an intimate connection with her surroundings is both scientifc and spiritual, putting Lea in a duality of roles as both an archaeologist of sound and as a sonic medium. The fact that these recordings took place during the partial solar eclipse of 2017 further contributes to the ceremonial, ritual quality of the work, making 'Resonant Field' a profound, industrial meditation on beauty, emptiness, and the deep melancholy of forgotten spaces.
