If one single word should be used to describe Stephen O’Malley, it should be “versatility”. This American guitarist, the guru of drone, is always perfectly at ease: with his devastating group, Sunn O))), as the creator of such algid and rarefied scores for the theatre with sophisticated Aethenor, or generating the nightmarish sounds of KTL. But this time O’Malley will collaborate with a totally unusual partner: Yuri Ancarani – at present one of the most interesting Italian video-makers. They will work on an unexpected project on the bora. The video was shot in the Rosandra Valley, in the Carso region bordering on Slovenia, the Italian entry point of so many illegal immigrants, and also the place where the strong wind called “bora” blows hardest.
