J A featuring Donato Dozzy - Sorella di confine | RUBBER013

🚨 10 Inch repress coming J A featuring Donato Dozzy - Sorella di confine | RUBBER013 A1 - Eclisse indolente A2 - Era vitale B - Sorella di confine Vinyl / Digital: https://rubber-denhaag.bandcamp.com/album/sorella-di-confine Distribution by @clone-distribution The initial 7-inch edition was withdrawn as the pressing didn’t fully capture the sonic quality of the tracks. Rubber releases a small repress on 10-inch, a format that truly carries the sound and presents the music exactly as intended. Reuniting as a trifecta, J A returns to Rubber with a three-pronged EP. This time, Andrea Noce and Jonida Prifti are joined by Donato Dozzy—the Italian maestro of minimal techno, who threads liquid geometry into the pair’s vocal acrobatics. Like a silver fog descending, ‘Eclisse Indolente’ opens. Not quite ambient—with field recording-esque emanations filling the backdrop—the spoken lyrics are moonlit incantations, spells for a mid-winter ritual. ‘Era Vitale’ showcases Dozzy’s hypnotic latticework in full effect, the operatic accompaniment gliding over a twitching beat. For the titular track—its thundering power a homage to the sound system—blasts of cold bass interject at intervals; a muted post-dub tirade, narrated by fractured, echoing whispers. Building on their previous album for the imprint, enter ja, which leaned more instrumentally maximalist, this incarnation shifts to subtle, mesmerising sonics that let the lyrical prowess surge forth. A testament to the mystical nature of the voice, Sorella di Confine is pagan-folk for the club; a lunar chant, an ebony hymn. The record serves as a sister release to Prifti’s eponymous poetry collection, published in 2024 by Marco Saya Edizioni. An extract from the collection’s afterword appears on the back sleeve, penned by the renowned lyricist, playwright, poet, and novelist Pasquale Panella.
