{"product_id":"live-at-maxxi","title":"Live at Maxxi","description":"For the follow-up to their widely praised self-titled debut full-length as Voices from the Lake, Donato Dozzy and Neel went further left field, issuing a recording of a live performance at a gallery in Rome. The duo's sound is still hypnotic ambient techno, but this time around there's far less emphasis on beats than on their previous album or EPs. There's still a lush, organic sound to it, but it feels a bit more alien. The album begins with sounds approximating dripping water, and from there it slowly progresses at an unhurried pace, moving through throbbing rhythms, chilling atmospheres (there's a constant chattering-teeth noise through several tracks), and a few offbeat surprises, such as the jaw harp loop in \"Richiami e Oscillazioni.\" The album ends with a majestic 13-minute cover of Italian singer\/songwriter Paolo Conte's \"Max,\" which sounds less like the aquatic techno of Porter Ricks and more like a mid-'90s ambient release on Instinct Records, such as any of Taylor Deupree's pre-12k projects. The album's a bit more of a difficult listen than its predecessor, which is the type of relaxing, welcoming album that can be listened to at any time, but Live at Maxxi is still a rewarding album, especially due to the inclusion of the sublime \"Max.\" ~ Paul Simpson","brand":"MovieMars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45300719026463,"sku":"5050580636033","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/7833\/0399\/files\/1cc3b816e7a993cf4b2d4b8ccfdfb1cd.jpg?v=1777804644","url":"https:\/\/www.moviemars.com\/products\/live-at-maxxi","provider":"MovieMars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
