Peter Lix – Fade Away (Spotify)

Categories: Audio, Electronica, The Latest|Tags: , , , |

“Peter Lix latest release in the Drum & Bass scene is full of emotion and artistic ideas. The experienced producer has cleverly combined some soft vocals and keyboard loops with powerfull percussion patterns. "Fade Away" is a real gem for every sensitive listener.”

-Nagamag.com

The latest offering from Peter Lix and the Dojo Audio stable, Fade Away is an energetic Drum & Bass workout with emotive melodies and an alluring vocal hook.

Built upon a foundation of atmospheric pads - reminiscent of the deeper D&B sound of the mid nineties - Fade Away blends its uptempo vibe with soulful flavours.

Through pensive chords, bittersweet guitar phrases, subtle sweeps and reverb-heavy fx, the track creates a dreamy vibrance that floats over solid drums and a driving sub bassline.

The chorus section delivers the instantly catchy ‘Don’t fade away’ vocal, and is further complemented by subtle piano notes.

Fade Away is conceptual, in that it cleverly blends melodic elements to create a sense of emotions “fading away”. Yet, as we’ve come to expect from the Peter Lix sound, an air of hope is left lingering within the bittersweet keys…

Nili Fossae – All The Light They Cannot See (Spotify)

Categories: Audio, Neoclassical, The Latest|Tags: , , , |

“Airy layers from Ambient & Drone with deep and emotional piano melody. In -Nili Fossaee- crafted an excellent composition with a strong inspirational coefficient. Sometimes your soul requires privacy and such music is the perfect solution.”

“Воздушные слои из Ambient & Drone с глубокой и очень эмоциональной мелодией пиано. У -Nili Fossae- получился отличная композиция с сильным коэффициентом вдохновения. Помните, что порой ваша душа требует уединения и подобная музыка идеальный способ отблагодарить её.”

-Nagamag.com

Nili Fossae is a group of large, concentric trenches on Mars, located at approximately 22°N, 75°E. It is also the collaboration between UK-based multi-instrumentalists and composers Pete Sené and Martin Roberts.

Sené and Roberts met while touring with different bands in 2017, sharing an inherent interest in each others live setup. With Sené's work for Everything Everything, and solo project Lessening; and Roberts' career with German electronic act Schiller, and band Aelius, it was clear they had similar styles in composition and sound design. When the world stood still in May 2020, the two decided to use the time to collaborate on an EP inspired by artists they loved; Jon Hopkins, Nils Frahm, and Olafur Arnalds to name a few.

‘Into The Blue’, Nili Fossae's first complete body of work, is an exploration of Ambient Electronica, Post-Classical, and everything in between; focussing on tone and texture over traditional musical structure. The EP was written remotely, with Sené and Roberts composing and drafting arrangements in their respective home studios, before building upon the bare-bone ideas with additional synths and production.

With their collective careers in live music spanning over two decades, it is only a matter of time before Nili Fossae make their debut live appearance; where their synth-heavy aesthetic will forge the landscape of their Martian namesake.

“Who let that funk in? We did and with open arms. Uplifting groove from a way back era that will never cease to be relevant. If this does not uplift your mood you are slim on options. The quality production is on point, never skipping a beat. ”

SōMuch is an Italian retro nūvō band of 5 members, based in Bolzano, northern Italy.
SōMuch was born in 2020 just before the pandemic, with the support of Ralph Rolle, drummer for Nile Rodgers and Chic.
After many years of playing together as a cover band (disco music took over in the band’s repertoire and the influence of the 70s and the 80s became the true guide and direction of the band's sound), the need arose to write their own songs that could have a retro flavor but with a new sound.

How did they meet Ralph Rolle?

November 2017 Roby (vocals) – scrolling through her Instagram feed – came across an advertisement: Ralph Rolle, the drummer for Nile Rodgers and Chic, was giving one-to-one classes in England. Roby decided to get a special Christmas gift for Francesco (drummer).
On the 7th of December 2017, Roby and Francesco flew to Manchester, England. They met Ralph and became friends.
October 19, 2019, magic happens. Roby and be Francesco asked Ralph to listen to a demo of a song written by Andrea G. called, "You gave me love". Ralph was literally thrilled by what he heard and asked if he could produce the song. He offered to fly to Italy to produce the track!
The production of the first two tracks, under Ralph Rolle’s guidance began January 2020. After the completion of production of those tracks, the global pandemic broke out and the realization of the album suffered a 20 month setback.
But the pandemic proved to be a musical positive for SōMuch. Great songs were written during the time at home and Ralph returned to Italy once travel was allowed and produced another three tracks for the band. The first track to be released is Studio 54, a dance floor filler that brings listeners back to the iconic New York nightclub. Studio 54 is now available on all streaming platforms.
You will be given the chance to hear more of the music of SōMuch very soon in an E.P. and you will find music that was born, made and produced from the hearts and souls of a group that believes that spreading love and happiness to the world is an absolute must.

What’s next?
The first EP of SōMuch and more new songs to be recorded and hopefully lots of live music.

Members of the band:
Valentina Salvi - vocals
Andrea Giovannini - guitar
Francesco Carli - drums
Roby Creazzo - vocals
Andrea Belloni - bass
