    An intense journey from slow harmonic chants to minimal rave euphoria. [Nov 2018, p.91]

    This is remarkable music that proves the expansive possibilities present in one note. It feels symmetrical, but it’s not; it feels additive, but it’s not. Instead, Barbieri coaxes provocative, varied textures and melodies out of the continuous electric field generated by her synthesizer, and in doing so, she has made a drone record that feels very much alive.

    With Born Again In The Voltage, Barbieri goes deeper into undressing familiar timbres, this time with human voice and string instruments. With them, she's able to guide us on an introspective trek through the expanse of our own brains and the cosmos alike.

    Born Again in the Voltage as an essential document of contemporary modular-synth music from one of the instrument’s great new explorers.
