Futuristic music rejected tradition and introduced experimental sounds inspired by machinery, and would influence several 20th-century composers.
Luigi Russolo (1885-1947) wrote The Art of Noises (1913), an influential text in 20th-century musical aesthetics. Russolo used instruments he called intonarumori, which were acoustic noise generators that permitted the performer to create and control the dynamics and pitch of several different types of noises. Russolo and Marinetti gave the first concert of Futurist music, complete with intonarumori, in 1914. However, they were prevented from performing in many major European cities by the outbreak of war.
New album Futurist will be available on Spotify and Apple Music on 24th of May.
