Descriptions, Reviews, &c.

Continuing the spirit of TSSS Tapes' intimate, small-edition cassette releases, Methexis finds Italian percussionist Francesco Covarino collaborating with the long-running Greek electroacoustic trio Eventless Plot, whose work explores the boundary between composition, improvisation, and sound art.

Recorded in early 2024 at "to pik ap kato" in Greece and mastered by Giuseppe Ielasi, the session unfolds through subtle interplay between objects, field recordings, percussion, modular synthesis, and tape manipulation.

Methexis is part of Innovo Editions' growing cassette series that favors exploratory collaborations and raw sonic textures. Here, both Covarino and Eventless Plot create a tactile and spatially aware listening experience — minimal, textural, and quietly expansive — recalling lowercase improvisation while engaging with the aesthetics of electroacoustic collage.
