Luciano Maggiore - N units out of 120

"N units out of 120" is a section of a long, still untitled composition written by Luciano Maggiore in September 2023. The piece is trimmed to the bones with rhythmic interventions and straight lines adapted to the space that hosts it. Maggiore performs the second part here. The previous and following ones were performed at BiM (Milan), Pushkin House (London), and Centro Pecci (Prato).

Luciano Maggiore is a Palermo-born, London-based musician whose work is characterised by the use of speakers and several analogue/digital devices (samplers, CD players, walkmans, tape recorders) as well as acoustic objects and addresses the performativity of the musical act, the perception of it, and the obscurity that emanates from it.

His main interests include mechanisms of sound diffusion, performance, repetition, endurance, non-human animal languages, dance, and folklore. With Louie Rice, he started NO-PA/PA-ON, a project that deals with performing score-based works, both acoustic and amplified. He collaborates with Michael Speers, making music that contemplates the kernel of black metal.
