This project is authored by Giovanni Lami and Enrico Coniglio, recorded by Miguel Carvalhais and enriched by the charming artwork of Dead Meat. The vinyl edition of Lemuria immediately grabbed our attention with its universe of sounds. These recordings were not made in a studio, but in an abandoned house and have a certain ‘clotted’ …

“Lemuria†reviewed by The Sound Projector
A curious work is Lemuria (CRÓNICA 083-2013), a collaboration between the sound artist Enrico Coniglio from Venice and the photographer and field recordist Giovanni Lami of Ravenna, here working as the duo Lemures.

They take their name from the same Roman spirits of the dead after whom Carl Linnaeus named a species grouping of …

“Lemuria†reviewed by Rockerilla
Lemuria è il nuovo progetto di Enrico Coniglio, uno dei più impegnati esponenti del non certo vasto bacino dell’elettronica sperimentale italiana.
