Tu m' - Monochromes Vol . 2 (2023)

LINE_142

'Monochromes Vol.2' is an archival collection of works created in 2008 by Italian multimedia duo Tu m’. The 'Monochromes' series is a collection of modular audio and video compositions for electric chamber ensemble. Intended as fragile atmospheric colors made of sound, light, space.

Previously unreleased until now, these eight majestic, cloud-like pieces are a continuation of the prior Tu m' album 'Monochromes Vol.1'(LINE_040) published on LINE in 2009. Vol.1 is one of the most downloaded, streamed, and cherished in the LINE back catalog, voted among the 15 best releases of 2009 in the area of electronic music by The Wire magazine.

LINE is thrilled to be able to have this second collection of just over an hour of works unearthed after 15 years.

For more information on these works along with the accompanying video excerpts can be viewed at tu-m.com/monochromes.

"Ambient music with the big A of course. If Brian Eno has artistic children then their names are Tu m’."

"Like the waves of an ocean that have been crashing against this beach for thousands of years, and many years to come, this music is new and ancient – it exists _all_ the time, somewhere completely on its own, only to be summoned into this moment with the press of a button."
