Anthony Pateras - Blood Stretched Out
Review by Carlyn Strydom
Blood Stretched Out, the latest album from Anthony Pateras, is a mesmerizing and experimental journey through the depths of sound and rhythm. Pateras, known for his avant-garde approach to music, has once again pushed the boundaries of what is possible in modern music.
The album is a collection of nine tracks, each one unique in its own way. From the hauntingly beautiful "The Slow Creep of Convenience" to the chaotic and frenzied "Auto-da-fe," every track on Blood Stretched Out takes the listener on a different sonic adventure.
Pateras' use of unconventional instruments and techniques is particularly noteworthy. He seamlessly blends electronic and acoustic sounds, creating a sonic landscape that is both otherworldly and deeply human.

Notes
- The first solo piano album by Anthony Pateras in 10 years, marking the mid-point of the Immediata series.
- Blood Stretched Out explores sound phenomena, generating swirling overtones through polymorphic repetitions, gradually spanning the entire range of the keyboard. The piece was commissioned by Lampo, premiering in Chicago and since performed all over Europe and Australia, including an infamous concert opening for Faith No More at Zitadelle Spandau! After numerous attempts to capture the phenomenological aspects of the piece to disc, this version was recorded live at Géraldine Schenkel's Piano Cataclysme in Geneva in 2016.
- Chronochromatics is an extended study of parallel theme and variations. Ideas are exploded and explored, constantly shifting, melding and reconfiguring into continually perplexing forms which are at once circular and linear. Recorded live at The Loft in Cologne for Hayden Chisholm's Plush Music Festival in 2013.
