‘Dhaulagiri’ on Spotify – Apple Music
The duo consists of Giovanni Todisco (drums and percussions) and Giuseppe Candiano (modular synthesizers). Inspiration for their music is highly influenced by SUN RA, with the refined method of IANNIS XENAKIS. Their resulting sound draws parallels to the work of Clap! Clap!, Flying Lotus, Portico Quartet. Trrmà’s previous single ‘Shishanpangma’ has a completely different feel to the new single ‘Dhaulagiri’, which takes a polyrhythmic turn, as well as adding a far-out and sporadic beat.
Trrmà describes the track to their fans, “‘Dhaulagiri’ combines afro-jazz percussion elements with abstract electronics that remind spacey 90’ scratch DJ works. An unconventional form of broken beat composition.”
