The latest act under the Clock DVA name is a sort of \u2018lost album\u2019, created with the intent to fill a chronological\/creative void in the third artistic phase begun in the 2010s, a period that marked the project\u2019s rebirth after a long period of latency and the arrival of the polyhedric\u00a0<strong>Maurizio TeZ Martinucci<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>In the pages of\u00a0<strong><i>Adi Newton: Second Sight<\/i><\/strong>, the English-language edition of Clock DVA\/TAGC \u2013 Sogni sepolti (2022), acclaimed music critic Paolo Bertoni provides a meticulous analysis of Adi Newton\u2019s works, including collateral endeavors like The Anti Group\/ TAGC, Psychophysicist, etc., and a brief chapter on the legendary, meteor-like band The Future, the nucleus from whose cells Clock DVA and The Human League were born. They were pioneers of the Sheffield electronic scene which, besides our subjects, included seminal, indispensable entities like Cabaret Voltaire and Vice Versa.

Bertoni\u2019s agile volume constitutes an excellent guide for navigating the complex itineraries of this extraordinary musical galaxy.
