AN UNUSUAL DAY IN MONTANA is the new 2010 experimental music release from Robert Ziino.
THE LYING DOLLS (2009)
"I'm in an organic machine. There are no moving parts but my mind races and is thrown up against a veil of color and sounds. Each area of my body is affected differently although I actually no longer have human form. My phantom arms sway in the purple light, my chest explodes into an opaque mist and I feel like I know something valuable but cannot define it."

SLAVES FOR THE BILLIONAIRES (2008)
"I wouldn't like to spill the beans, but there's one or two tracks on this album that have all the potential to become synth classics."
Darklife
UK
ECLIPSE UNMASKED (2007)
"Wassily Kandinsky meets modern society and develops a strange electro-chemical rash."
Morbid Outlook
USA
PLASTIC LOVES GLOBAL WARMING (2006)
"American Robert Ziino processes creative outputs with experimental sound worlds of the rather electronic type, which is comparable to the bizarre world David Lynch or David Cronenberg."
Darkbeat
Germany
MUSIC FROM THE VALLEY OF FLOWERS (2005)
"If you've ever heard the solo sides by Nick Mason, Rick Wright, and David Gilmour on the Pink Floyd album UMMAGUMMA, then all you have to do is imagine those peculiar sounds (minus the fluid guitar) in a more modern context and processed through keyboards to get an idea of what this disc sounds like."
The One True Dead Angel
USA
TWILIGHT CLONES (2004)
"Ziino's Twilight Clones is something like the aural equivalent of a high-resolution, three-dimensional, high-tech video game."
Gothic Beauty
USA
Experimental Artists also includes the paintings and photography of Mandi Ziino. Her imagery contains surreal landscapes of abstract human emotion. Mandi recently entered the VSA Arts competition and received an Award of Excellence for her photograph "Hidden" (pictured above). Hidden will be exhibited in the Smithsonian Museum in Washington D.C. in honor of her award.
Her oil painting "Mental Chaos" is exhibited in the permanent collection of the MDA Art Museum in Tucson, Arizona. It is an exploration of energy fields in the human body. Other featured paintings deal with issues of self-acceptance. She uses surreal art as a way to capture her vision of the world. Her visuals try to define the darkness that makes people uncomfortable and search for the light of knowledge.
