RICARDO "Iridiridi" SILVESTRE "Stay Strong"

Fork Your Tongue

Perfekt

Blood Clot

Meditative ambient music to unwind.  
Aphex Twin + Brian Eno inspired.

Room 501

This is a song about parents, teachers, work mangers and leaders all messing with your head and making you feel inferior when they have got no more of a clue than you'll ever have; so feck it and go with your gut, so long as it isn't hurting anyone :) That's what I say anyway. I've had a lot of practice and experience; but still, what the hell do I know eh? :)

Oblique

Oblique [S4]

Faith favors false answers as sham prophets sew errant seeds.
Confusion grows as a cancer, an unthinking anarchy breeds.
The masses pray for a deluge or for the fear to dissipate,
but nothing offers them refuge or a balm to alleviate
the symptoms of the condition, the soul's malnutrition
or man's response to creation: violence and stagnation.

Attention slaves, attention fools: poison in the well!
Reclaim the caves, lay down your tools (poison in the well).
And sulk in pain, broken and bruised (poison in the well),
For you must live with what you choose (poison in the well).

Learned words beg for attention under the din of sensation.
For the few blessed with retention, some small private elation.
But this is hardly salvation for the mob who howl and tear
apart their civilization and then puzzle at the smoke in the air
rising from the ruins and embers of a future dismembered.
The just desserts now tendered of a history not remembered.

Smile & Nod

“Without Delay” is the new Cybophonia single.
It was born from a strong need to come back to the new, radically changed, discographic landscape, from which I struggle to stay away.
I have always enjoyed creating music and experimenting with new forms of songwriting. That’s why, during the past several years of silence, I have not remained inactive. Without any particular ambition, I started writing songs with an organic approach. I resurrected my voice and embraced my old acoustic and electric guitars, minimizing the digital input and cut-and-paste style that characterized all my previous projects. I moved away from the EDM genres, to revisit my youth passion for indie guitar pop, which had never really left me.
I hope this new phase will be appreciated by loyal listeners, however unsettling it may sound at first. I also hope that it will win over a new audience who have not heard Cybophonia’s previous work.
Thanks for listening.
Eros

Get the music

Cybophonia is the brainchild of Eros Minichiello, a musician and producer based in Locarno, Switzerland. In addition to creating music for films, TV, and radio, he has released records for the iconic label Irma Records, including the self-titled album "Cybophonia" in 2000, alongside a pair of 12" EPs and several singles and remixes. One of these, the remix of Black Mighty Orchestra's "Ocean Beach," became a chillout anthem. 
In 2007, Cybophonia released the "Slide In" EP, followed by the album "Spinning" in 2014—two eclectic collections that blend downtempo, nu-jazz, nu-disco, house, lounge, and pop.
After a hiatus, Cybophonia made a return in 2021 with several singles, culminating in the album "Bloom." This marked a shift toward a more organic approach to songwriting, incorporating Eros’s own vocals, acoustic and electric guitars, and scaling back on digital production to reconnect with his indie guitar pop roots. 
Now in 2024, Cybophonia is back with the album "Nothing More," released on September 13. This latest work builds on the dream-pop sound introduced in "Bloom," adding a folk-rock twist while reintroducing the electronic elements that characterized Cybophonia’s earlier productions, creating a fresh blend of organic and digital textures.
