I'm happy to finally share this journey, streamed on Radio Raheem during the latest UNIT episode.

For this one i decided, instead of mixing in the ‘classic way’, to create a sonic environment of more than 40 tracks; warping, ripping, and drawing details and frequencies from each one of them, creating 30 minutes of submerging sounds flow + one final credits track.

It’s probably one of my personal favorite works/experimentation i've ever done; sooo hope you'll enjoy it as i did while working on it.

Thanks to Ivo, Federico and Riccardo for the invitation <3

See you,
Matteo

END OF SUMMER MIXTAPE With Atoloi (Noods Radio - 30.08.2024)

Divenire Altro x Fango Radio presents Atoloi - Soliloqui / Concerti Per Cicale (26.09.2024)

Soliloqui / Concerti Per Cicale  (Soliloquies / Concerts For Cicadas) is a sound collage composed of environmental recordings, experiments with musical instruments and natural objects, excerpts from live performances, personal compositions and those of related artists that I have collected in recent months during my trips to Umbria. A land that has always evoked a complex feeling in me, a point in the intersection between the intimacy of being and the primitive nature of place.

In this microcosm are the tangle of thoughts that emerged from the hours spent in the car, the silent walks through the alleys of small and large towns, the sea of cicadas that inhabit its trees to the voices, more and less defined, of the people who dwell there.

Umbria is a journey, not a destination. And in the journey the boundary between looking and listening becomes intangible, revealing a path where what is voluntarily man-made dissolves into natural entropy.

Un enorme grazie a @trascendanza per l'invito, un sacco di amore per tutt' voi

Atoloi - Soliloqui / Concerti Per Cicale (Divenire Altro x Fango Radio, 26.09.2024)

Oi, i'm happy to share also here on SC my contribution to "Walk So Silently That the Bottoms of Your Feet Become Ears" curated by Gaia Ginevra Giorgi and Vittoria Assembri and broadcasted on Fango Radio. 

I've been a big fan of the series so finally releasing on it truly makes me happy, here's a small description of what has been the whole "lore" behind this live set/experimentation: 

This live set/jam/whatever, as notable from the title, consists of two macro-dimensions, which coexist and alternate like two voices in conversation: two souls that, at first, give each other space, and then merge into dense, kindred sound streams, losing and finding each other in a creative synthesis of a new narrative path.

On one hand, rain and wooden sounds emerge from recordings that, under the weight of the continuous rain dropping, resonate and arc in a continuous liquid beat. A silent crescendo of implicit nocturnal rituals, a dance that, between conscious and unconscious, invites to a real abandonment into sleep and the warm embrace of the bed.

On the other, dismembered voices, broken laughter and filtered sound signals, mixed in a sensory distortion, resonance and paint a small lake landscape. A lake, and in front of it, a city: stuck in time, as a symbol of a suspended civilization, an immobile place in an arzigogog of iron, marble and concrete.

Awe and melancholy merge, allowing a sense of latent malaise to emerge: a disease of the human. A pain that surfaces only when observed or remembered, and that finds relief in the constant return to meadows far from wet concrete, to depressions where roots tear up the soil, to small stone icons and endless carpets of chestnut leaves.

The path and cadence grow, evolve, into a choral paste. The music dissolves, becoming abstract desire: a song that recalls a distant world, a fragmented reflection, as if through a prism; an element that at the end of the tale, turns out to be a part of the inner being, destined to vanish in a sudden and final instant.

A quick moment, a loss of senses, a dismissal of one's nerves, a surrender to sleep. Everything fades into deep blackness, leaving room only for memory, a distant suggestion to be reckoned with, eyes wide open, the morning after.

Love to Gaia and Vittoria, thanks for having me <3 check the other episodes on Fango Radio because they're also really cool and feature many of my fav artists.

That's it, hugs from here,
Matteo

Thanks to those who have supported us so far, this is for you.

A new chapter.

Atoloi x Edera: Memoria Naturale @ ExAlge

Milano, Italy

Booking and Infos: atoloi.music@gmail.com

As a devotee of nature, Atoloi explores sound creating a mellow amalgam of layers using echoing synths, processed field recordings, and self-created samples; all mixed in a lysergic experience of heavy-grained noises and evocative instrumental compositions.

Not sticking only to club-oriented sonorities, instead, his productions and mixes search for other depths, in which the listener can get lost in a dense "no boundaries" journey between the worlds of dance and meditation.
