Mattia_FT, aka Mattia Frasson, has been the founder and president of the Faro Tondo Scooter Club, based in Curtarolo (PD) since 2008.
In addition to being an enthusiastic "collector" and selector of original Jamaican music vinyl records from the '60s and '70s, his involvement in the world of scooters has inspired him to pursue a musical exploration, focusing on the early sounds of Ska, Rocksteady, and Reggae.

His passion for music has led him to perform at numerous scooter gatherings and venues in Italy, as well as in other countries such as Copenhagen, Zurich, Brighton, and more recently, at the Overjam festival in Tolmin, Slovenia.
For some years now, he has been collaborating with two other renowned DJs, Renato Traffano from Genoa and Pino JJ from Vicenza, in organizing a bimonthly event called "The night train." In these events, they host international artists, providing music enthusiasts with an eclectic and engaging musical experience.

Amamix 22 - Mattia FT

all snug and warm for the onset of winter. 

“Recorded in the later hours of an autumn evening, surrounded by candlelight and burning incense, I wanted the track selection to reflect the slower, introspective pace of the changing seasons. 

By blending the elements of ambient, dub and downtempo, my intentions were to create a woven soundscape that invites the listener to journey inward, evoking a sense of transcendence, whilst being deeply rooted in the presence of now.”

Italian sound artist Marco Shuttle debuts on Astral Industries with AI-39. Alluring and evocative, ‘Sonidos y Modulaciones de la Selva’ is a journey deep into the Amazon rainforest, seeking to capture its power and vastness, but also a rumination on the problem of its impending destruction.

In this album Shuttle sees the continuation and further ripening of an ongoing creative process, utilising both audio and visual documentations as source material. On this occasion most of the field recordings were taken in the Tupana Arü Ü nature reserve in the Amazonas region of Columbia, between Leticia and Puerto Nariño.

For the compositional process Shuttle employs a distinctly minimalist approach, achieving highly rich and articulate soundscapes with relatively little. Painting with an almost impressionistic stroke, the depth of imagery is underpinned by a strong experimental leaning and a sophisticated musical language.

Within its wild freeform, the seamless interplay between nature and the machines sees them merge into a mysterious dance - a liquifying sequence of scenes that shimmer with flora, fauna and the unmistakable aliveness of the jungle. A procession of sputtering and cavernous pulsations, sprawling biologies and hidden mysteries, the jungle as an entity, a spirit, begins to emerge. With all its peculiarities and strangeness, it reveals a world of seeming chaos, yet underneath it all a thread of something innately conscious.

Although it could be considered a form of sound diary, the scope spans much further than a standalone creative work. Within its intoxicating montage of shifting forms, ‘Sonidos y Modulaciones de la Selva’ stands as a sonic ethnography, and a contemplation on time, space, and our evolving relationship with nature.

Ongoing large-scale logging, agriculture and infrastructure projects are leading to significant deforestation in the Amazon, and continues to threaten biodiversity, the global environment and the livelihoods of indigenous communities. Part of the proceedings from this release will be donated to Amazon Watch (amazonwatch.org), a nonprofit organisation that works to protect the rainforest and advance the rights of indigenous peoples in the Amazon Basin.

“Special thanks goes to Marco Cruz from Amazon Jungle Trips and to Aberlardo and Manuel (who is also the narrator of the story at the end of Part 2), the indigenous guides who took me deep into the forest and made me experience its overwhelmingly powerful beauty. This record is dedicated to Colombia and all the fantastic people I met in this wonderful country” - Marco Shuttle
