Ólafur Arnalds: Saudade | When We Are Born

Entry no 5 in our summer single series has arrived, the sublime ‘Blåregn’ by Copenhagen based composer @jacob_david. You can load it up wherever you listen to music: idol.lnk.to/blaregn

“It's a warm summer afternoon and I’m enjoying the cool breeze as I lay down in the garden. I close my eyes to take in the sound of the wind in my ears, and its touch upon my arms. In this meditative state, I look up to see a flower with loose branches hanging above me, swaying softly. It is the Blåregn...”

FEDERICO ALBANESE is a composer born in Milan, Italy in 1982, and currently based in Berlin. His musical versatility is a natural gift that pushes him to explore music in all its facets. Albanese's compositions are airy and cinematic, blending classical music, electronics and psychedelia. Federico started studying piano and clarinet as a child before becoming fascinated by rock music. As a teenager he studied bass and became a self-taught guitarist and soon became one of the leading figures of Milan's underground scene, performing in several bands. Influenced by black music, folk, electronic, modern and contemporary classical music his skills as a composer soon emerged.

In February 2014, Federico Albanese released his debut album entitled "THE HOUSEBOAT AND THE MOON" . He recorded all of the piano parts with a 1969 German tape recorder, the Uher Royal Deluxe, which allowed him to catch all of the tiny hidden shades, the imperfections, the noises of the piano and its surrounding space. Federico melted this rarefied sound with electronics, live recordings, strings, and homemade instruments. The result was a combination of contrasts and colors with a variety of atmospheres that wonderfully represented Federico's musical universe

Vector Dreams

An awakening in silence, where creation takes its first breath and dissolves into infinite movement. Each pulse carries the memory of its origin, resonating through layers of shadow and radiance. What begins as stillness becomes expansion: an infinite return to the beginning, where everything is reborn.
