Sinistri
Manuele Giannini (guitar, electronics, speaker), Roberto Bertacchini (drums, percussion), Alessandro Bocci (electronics, computer), Dino Bramanti (electronics, realtime processing, code).
Sinistri, formerly known as Starfuckers, is an experimental music unit with drums, electronics, guitar and sometimes vocals, based in Italy. Since their forming in the late 80's they've established a highly unique musical language based on nonmetric rhythms, minimal riffs and improvisational vamps that bear traces of proto-punk, black and contemporary classical music.
Sinistri's music comes out from an evolving process and appears like a relentless ultra-syncopated groove which filters, through a raw rock perspective, techniques and primal elements of funk, dub, free jazz, blues, concrete and electro-acoustic music.
