Archive material and source history
Area formed in Milan in the late 1960s, drawing from sources like Frank Zappa's experimental rock and Miles Davis's free jazz. Their sound was built around Demetrio Stratos's vocal experiments, Patrizio Fariselli's piano work that mixed jazz and classical ideas, Paolo Tofani's bass and cello, and Gianni Sassi's complex drum patterns.
Their songs like 'L'abbattimento Dello Zeppelin' and 'Arbeit Macht Frei' carried political edges that sometimes got them in trouble with conservative listeners. They worked with musicians including Ares Tavolazzi on electric violin and Giulio Capiozzo on saxophone.
Area recorded a string of albums in the 1970s that avoided standard rock formulas. Tracks such as 'Luglio, Agosto, Settembre (Nero)' and 'Consapevolezza' show how they folded avant-garde theater elements and structural experiments into their music without settling into one genre.
