Life through sound. Loving the energy and positive feel. Beautiful sound quality. In other words I love it.

beautiful deep sounds, great work, very strong feeling of persistence

Rituals of Release was forged, not recorded. We summoned it—pulled it from the haze of two restless nights in Berlin and Madrid, late in 2023.

This is no album. It’s a reckoning. These sounds were not crafted, but unearthed—echoes buried beneath the surface, only waiting for us to dig. No rules guided our hands, only a primal pull toward chaos and freedom.

Rituals of Release is the pulse of a decaying world—a collision of flesh and machine, where desire becomes worship, and wanting is never enough. The struggle to hold on, the surrender to let go—it’s all here, in every warped note and fractured beat. It’s the sound of humanity collapsing and dancing in the ruins.

Each track offers a dangerous plunge into unknown depths. This is not a map; it’s an invitation to lose yourself. No journey here is safe, and no listener will return unchanged.

Dive in, if you dare. We’ll meet you on the other side.

Rituals of Release

Joe's Revenge

a project created in december 2020 found from the archive 

Procedure:
A MIDI sequence was created with Elektron Octatrack,
which drives a piano track in Ableton.
The sequence was then broken down into four melodic lines.
The first line were transposed by +7 semintones
the second by +11 semitones
the third -13 semitones
the fourth line remains in the same pitch
then the harmony was extracted from each melodic line.
For each track, the ghost plays its part and sings as it pleases.
Next, for the sake of musicality, each ghost decides which notes to play and which to omit from its part.
During the performance the Time increase and the ensemble takes place
second take with the "singing ghost" track add

il mio obbiettivo sarebbe produrre una lunga traccia di “musique d’ameublement”, quindi se qualcuno volesse aggiungere i propri suoni - pochi, sparsi e quieti - la cosa sarebbe molto gradita. Nel caso, fatemi sapere.

The Opening Scene

In ancient Roman times an augur or diviner, sought omens from things like the flights of birds to ascertain auspicious days when new work would go well.The pieces listed here represent the results of personal 'fastus' days, my best days.&#13;
