In November 1926, Tina Modotti wrote: “I accept the tragic conflict between life continuously changing its form, and also immutably fixing it in time.” “No longer, not yet”, the second album from the Italian band “She’s Analog”, is an “instant film” that pretentiously tries to stop movement. The title refers to a zone of transit, in which everything unfolds and blooms. This space isn’t interpreted as exclusively musical; instead it represents that liminal space in which we move and create, both detaching from what we leave behind, and being open to what could happen in the future. The sounds and music contained in these 40 minutes, embody the relentless and vital movement that feeds this band’s energy: tapes and field recordings give a perception of life flowing (“slow, kick”), as so do the sounds that transition from one piece to another (“tangled”). Together with echoes of lyrical and dramatic melodies (“narrow pass”), all these elements convey a sense of instability, as if everything could suddenly collapse, stand still, or possibly move forward. The whole record was conceived through a meticulous work of juxtaposition and sound collage, which has strongly influenced (and reversed) our compositional practice. This technique fostered an open dialog between the sonic worlds mentioned above, resulting in a broader compositional form, where sonic materials exist even after they occur, like an invisible wire tying all these elements together. The 18-minute-piece “blu”, which covers the entire B side of the record, is the perfect example of this movement and its transformation: a stubborn percussive foundation on which sonic events occur and repeat over time, slowly mutating into a completely different scene, in which the mellotron gradually arouses, putting everything on hold and creating expectations. The return of the initial elements, like the guitar and percussion, give the impression of a circular form that hasn’t yet returned to its starting position. Sounds and timbres are now scattered pieces of what remains, that again feel like a new starting point. What comes out is a work that represents the collective journey of this band, a story of how it grew together, always looking for that “little extra” that is so hard to put into words. The practice of listening and communicating with each other, made us believe that everything we conceive as possible could actually happen, within this incredibly beautiful and challenging experience that we collectively share. That said, this journey can’t really ever end. It's just another starting point, from which we move onwards.
