Very soothing piano piece. A delicate tentative ballerina stepping across the stage. Picking up flowers, finding a love letter. Smiling and weeping.

Great work Edoardo, congratulations. Enjoyed the ellegancy and relaxation in your playing.

Beautiful and emotional. Love the simplicity in the playing. Really makes you feel connected. Great stuff

Beautiful piece Edoardo, sounds great in every key

sound like time falling apart and being reassembled enew:)

This track has a beautiful mood. The piano with the reverb sounds good 👌🏻

Wind of Sadness

Introduction in English:

People often tell me that when they are with a loved one who is about to die, they feel particularly close to them. 
Sometimes, in such moments, the history of their relationship flashes before their eyes. 
Some report reaching a deeper peace with the person in question shortly before their death. Often, the dying say things they have never been able to say in their lifetime. For example, a father who, shortly before his death, is able to tell his daughter for the first and only time that he has always loved her.
Many of those left behind tell me that they did not want to let the dying person go, but that they somehow realized that they had to let go of their loved one so that they could pass away as peacefully as possible; that they could not “die with them,” but had to continue living alone. 
And it is not uncommon for those who are approaching death to tell their accompanying relatives that they should continue to live well and in peace.
All of these stories inspired me to write the song “Mourir (Dying).” And as always, for such fundamental existential experiences, I choose the language that best expresses these radical moments of transition: French.


Lyrics (for those, who don`t speak French)

Dying

I watched over your bed 
Sat here with you night after night

Your breathing is very laboured
And it's been a long time
Since I spoke to you

The cancer has destroyed you 
You lie there, powerless and limp

You've lost the fight 
No, you won't be reborn

The thread of your life is increasibly breaking

Your gaze is so empty
Come on, please look at me again 

One last time
Don't go yet
Come on, turn around one last time.

Your heart is beating so weakly
So stay awake a little longer

I'm really letting you go
But let us look at each other once more
A farewell glance before you pass over

It's already too late
I'm saying a prayer for you.

So go in peace
Without pain

Forever my great Love

Französischer Text

Mourir

J'ai veillé à ton chevet
Je suis restée avec toi nuit après nuit
Ta respiration est tres difficile
Et cela fait tres longtemps
que je t'ai parlé

Le cancer t'a emporté
tu es là, sans force et sans vigueur
Tu as perdu la bataille 
non, tu ne renaîtras pas
Le fil de ta vie se rompt de plus en plus

Ton regard est si vide
Viens regarder encore une fois
Une dernière fois
Ne pars pas encore
Tourne-toi encore une fois

Ton cœur ne bat plus que très faiblement
Mais reste encore un peu éveillé

Je vais vraiment te laisser partir
Mais regarde-moi encore une dernière fois
Un regard d'adieu avant la transition

Il est déjà trop tard
je fais une prière pour toi

alors va en paix, libre de toute douleur
Pour toujours mon grand amour

Mourir (Dying)

"Not All the Moves We Make Are in the Dark" delves into the theme of the underlying hope, ultimately present in human beings. The piano-based music offers a true inner journey, built on weightless as well as moderately intense sections, through which the piano investigates the delicate line that separates surrender to belief. Most often, we all acknowledge our actions are not leading us towards the path we projected for ourselves. Yet, it is also true that not all the moves we make are in the dark. As long as we keep going, we can land somewhere. The music is named after and inspired by Can't Swim's Album "Fail You Again".

Not All the Moves We Make Are in the Dark

Beneath the Shell (2025) - If life were a bug...
Inspired by Kafka's surreal novels, this song is questioning our very existence. What if life has no purpose at all and everything boils down into a cacophony of accidents? Some bugs undergo metamorphosis, others will stay the same. Heavy metalcore riffs meet synthesizers and weltschmerz.

Lyrics:

Hook
Darkside, that’s where I ride, Glow in my chest but my skin all night, They call me villain, but they ain’t right, Bad intentions? Nah, I do good disguised.

Verse 1
Yeah, halo crooked, but it still shine, Heart pure gold, but the drip all slime, Do wrong things, with the right mind, I rob the dark, just to bless the light. They said I’m toxic, I said “thank you,” Haters my breakfast, I just ate you, Feeding on shadows, that’s my breakthrough, Angel in hell but the horns stay playful.

Pre-Hook
Good side hidden, bad side debut, (I’m trolling) They point fingers, but they all confused. Hook Darkside, that’s where I ride, Glow in my chest but my skin all night, They call me villain, but they ain’t right, Bad intentions? Nah, I do good disguised.

Verse 2 
Label me evil, I laugh on cue, Mirror cracked, show the best and the worst too, Smile in the court, judge ain’t got a clue, If I’m guilty, then the system guilty too. Devil in Dior, angel in rags, Carry my sins in designer bags, Misunderstood like a meme gone bad, But I still spread light when I make y’all mad.

Bridge 
Dark humor, paint my fate, Hate just gas in the car I race, Mislabels, man, that’s free press, They love the villain they can’t confess.Darkside, that’s where I ride, Glow in my chest but my skin all night, They call me villain, but they ain’t right, Bad intentions? Nah, I do good disguised.

Final Hook 
Darkside, that’s where I ride, Glow in my chest but my skin all night, They call me villain, but they ain’t right, Bad intentions? Nah, I do good disguised.

Dark Side(Remix by CYFR 360)

This time we’re taking a different approach, focusing on Tom’s chest voice and music that fits the mood. "No Man’s Sky" is a mix of cosmic and intimate: it uses space imagery (void, stars, silence, infinity) to talk about inner or relational distance. It’s not necessarily a romantic relationship, it could be between two people, two friends, two souls. But the message is that even in the midst of emptiness and distance, there’s an unbreakable bond.
The “No Man’s Sky” here isn’t the video game, but a metaphor for a vast, boundless space where no one can live. Yet inside this “no man’s sky” there’s still a connection: two hearts beating or dreaming together, despite everything.
There’s strong melancholy (silence, coldness, broken stars), but also hidden hope: the idea that connection endures beyond distance.
It’s an atmospheric ballad, suspended between science fiction and the deepest human feeling.
We sincerely hope you enjoy it! Catch you in the comments, love you all!! 🫶

Lyrics:

Just a tiny dot in space
like a star too far away
we are drifting in the dark
with an endless void between us

No man’s sky…
a silence all around us
No man’s sky…
cold and endless, wide apart
Yet our hearts still beat as one
in this no man’s sky

Lonely shadows in the night
fading voices, fading light
this distance never dies
it lingers in our souls
it won’t fade away

No man’s sky…
a sorrow hanging over us
No man’s sky…
empty heavens, broken stars
Yet our hearts still dream as one
in this no man’s sky

Even bound forever
we are unseen
just two distant sparks
in eternity
and still…
we remain…

No man’s sky…
an endless space between us
No man’s sky…
so far, yet never gone
No man’s sky…
we are one
in this no man’s sky

No Man's Sky

Ode For Piano, B-flat Major, No. 3 (Main themes- works in progress)

Under a sky that never sleeps, fragments of radiance float between hollow cathedrals and endless dunes. The air vibrates with ancient vows, echoing in corridors of fire and frost. Somewhere between devotion and decay, the light forgets its origin and returns as something purer: an infinite movement, without form or demand, unfolding silently like the memory of a love that never learned to end.

Beautiful piano, full of tenderness. 'Tendresse' is the French for 'Tenderness.' Blessings to you

Tendresse

Edoardo Gastaldi, born in 1998, is an award-nominated film-music composer based in Venice, Italy. 
His style combines slow piano lines with deep ambient atmospheres. In his creations, the frontier of repetitive post-classical minimalism meets deep compositional ambient layers, leading his arrangements to become a philosophical thread of condensed melancholy and sparse hope.
After several years of music studies, which provided him with formal training ranging from classical piano to music theory, in the summer of 2021, Edoardo started publishing his compositions and productions.
The influence of 17th-19th century pianists and the fascination for experimental edges make his music an ever-evolving equilibrium among Modern Classical, Ambient, and Post-Rock subgenres.

Gastaldi's philosophical approach is inspired by the sounds of foundational artists including Johan Söderqvist, Hammock, Tony Anderson, Leonard Petersen, Atli Örvarsson, Stephen Porter, Ronit Kirchman, Sigur Rós, John Cage and Nils Frahm.

Edoardo’s work deeply reflects his desire to explore human fragility, paradoxes, and the complexities of existence. Over time, his soundtracks were described as capable of delving into the big consequences and underlying roots we can’t avoid.

In 2024 Gastaldi scored the soundtrack for the multi-award-winning short film “Etilismo”, a story that delves into the sensitive issue of chronic alcoholism in youth.
