The is an Italian-based one-man project hailing out of Milano lead by Riccardo Z, who can provide two different releases on the Dark/Experimental-label Apocalyptic Radio. Under his Zr19.84-moniker he offers a sort of Millitary-inspired Experimental/Ambient music, which touches the Martial and Noise genres. It’s an ominous sounding output which includes sampled passages out of soldier and march hymns taken of different belongings or – to my surprise – the Russian national hymn ("Jedinyi Sovestrij Sojuz"). This passages got mostly completely woven into the mix by placing them separated into a stereo field, but also and as expected under a heavily effect and lo-fi manipulation. There’s noticeable a slight dedication to some Neo-Classic influence in the kind how tracks got arranged, though it is a rough sort. Nothing to impress some faint-hearted listeners, this kind of music is specially dedicated to genre-lovers. Also this edition comes out in a special rounded metal movie can and is strictly limited to only 84 pieces, surely with respect to the projects’ name.
