Altri suoni - Tutto ciò che non è metal
Five years ago, back in September 2016, Stefano Gentile published a photographic book entitled IL SILENZIO DEI TUOI PASSI (The Silence of Your Steps), which collected a series of 56 pictures, both in b/w and colour, dedicated to the nights in Venice. The book was a journey through the most remote "calli" and "campi" (streets, alleys and squares, as they're called in Venice) in search of the true 'breath' of the city, far away from the hordes of tourists who 'attack' it every day during daylight hours.
On such occasion, renowned musician Gigi Masin composed a 30 minutes epic ambient track entitled VENEZIA 2016 which was the perfect soundtrack to the images included in the book. The track was published on CD and released bounded with the book itself in a limited edition of 480 copies only, and has been unavailable for years now.
In 2021 Gigi Masin returned to that great piece of music and to its timeless sounds. Finally, Silentes can now offer PLAYS VENEZIA, Masin's latest work contanining a re-edited version of that 'pearl', accompanied by two unreleased tracks composed and recorded in the same period.
Once again inspired by the city, Masin created an enduring and wonderful ambient masterpiece, a sort of return to the origins, to his home. Adding to the intrinsic quality of the originals, the tracks were beautifully mastered by Brandenburg Mastering in Amsterdam.
PLAYS VENEZIA is simply an unmissable release and one of Masin's greatest accomplishment in a long carrier that never ceases to amaze us.
Buio. Si accende un fiammifero. Il piano tratteggia un’elegante danza. Così si apre il sipario sul mondo sciamanico di Diego Cignitti, alias Cigno, prima che pulsazioni di bassi nero pece e cori da camera inizino a scandire l’incedere di “Colobraro”.
Inizia così una marcia inesauribile, fatta di invettive e sacrifici, di luci che squarciano le tenebre attraversando paesi ed epoche, inizia così “Morte e pianto rituale”, opera prima di questo cantautore laziale che, rinchiuso nella sua stanza senza luci, inizia a imprimere nero su nero idee e sensazioni.
Questo album rappresenta un viaggio intimo nelle profondità dell’anima. Attraverso testi poetici e intensi, Cigno esplora i temi della morte e della sofferenza, in un contesto quasi ritualistico. Le tracce sono costruite su basi elettroniche minimaliste, che si alternano a momenti di sonorità più aggressive e cupe. L'atmosfera dell'album è quella di un canto funebre moderno, dove ogni canzone diventa un rito catartico, una liberazione attraverso il pianto e la riflessione.

Long out of print, Blue Moon Station is the second full-length album by Swedish producer Magnus Birgersson, aka Solar Fields.
These eleven songs were originally released in 2003, and helped building and shaping Solar Fields signature soundscapes. Ambient wide spaces intertwined with synthetic beats (“Infection 268-7”) and off-planet drones (“Magnetic Air”), peacefully accompanying you through extra-vehicular activities on Blue Moon Station, wherever in the galaxy it may be.
Sidereal will bring Solar Fields sophomore album to a new life re-releasing it on CD with a completely renewed artwork, as well as bringing it to a (double) vinyl version for the first time ever in two stunning colors in July 2021.
Blue Moon Station comes in a new life also in its audio content: not only a beautiful new artwork and charming vinyl colors, but a huge remastering job done by Robert Elster at Elster Mastering Studio will feed the picky audiophile’s hunger
