E.G.A. (Entità Generale Astratta) is an open electro-acoustic ensemble led by xàr num and Delmore FX.

https://dasandereselbst.bandcamp.com/album/e-g-a

It first saw the light during a monsoon in Berlin, while venturing upon digital machines, MIDI programming and freeform improvisation.

Inspired by the recently published although already classic book by contemporary philosopher Federico Campagna “Technic and Magic - The Reconstruction of Reality" (Bloomsbury, 2018), E.G.A. aims to explore the resurgence of magical and religious themes in contemporary culture and its inextricable bond to the decline of western techno-political apparatus under the pressure of its own uncontrolled development. The project thus blends the expanded spectrum of digital electronic sounds with the timeless tones weaved by acoustic instruments such as flutes and trumpet in a structure-free environment that invites to oblique experimentation and to embrace the unexpected.

The first output by the project has been crafted between 2021 and 2023 Milan, Berlin and Rimini. Two recordings sessions were held in Delmore FX studio in Neuköln with Monteanni and one in Buda’s rehearsal space in Rimini. The opening track was recorded live at Jazz is Dead festival in Turin by xàr num and Jacopo Buda. The eight pieces were then produced, arranged and mixed by xàr num in Milan.
