Fluid Audio presents Giulio Aldinucci & Matteo Uggeri - The Promise of a Threat coming soon on Fluid Audio...

In The Promise of a Threat, two veteran composers of ambient and electroacoustic music - Giulio Aldinucci and Matteo Uggeri - converge on a collaborative terrain that is at once intimate and immense, reflective and unsteady, beautiful and unsettling.

Created between June 2021 and early 2022, and mastered by Aldinucci in 2025, the album stands as a slow-burning document of digital and emotional correspondence. It reflects the language of ambient music not as static wallpaper, but as a deeply expressive form - one that allows silence and signal, memory and disturbance, to coexist within the same fragile space.

A Digital Dialogue Across Distance...

The entire work emerged through remote exchanges between Aldinucci (based in Siena, Italy) and Uggeri (Milan, Italy), unfolding gradually through shared sessions, sketches, and iterations over time. The process was not unlike the movement of tectonic plates - imperceptible at first, yet with weight and intention. Layers of processed field recordings, abstracted rhythms, and spectral textures accumulate into dense yet transparent forms. Every detail is traceable, yet elusive.

Giulio Aldinucci, known for his deeply spatial drones and sensitive treatment of field material, builds immersive sonic beds that seem to hover just above the surface of the Earth - simultaneously grounded in place and untethered from time. Matteo Uggeri, by contrast, applies a more tactile touch: assembling beats, samples, and environmental recordings into patterns that give pulse and tension to the atmosphere.

Together, their styles intersect in subtle and surprising ways - sometimes bleeding into one another, at other times standing apart in contrast. The balance between order and entropy, harmony and noise, creates a dynamic that speaks to the album’s title: The Promise of a Threat. Beauty does not arrive alone. It is always shadowed by its inverse.

Processes of Presence and Absence...

Across the album’s runtime, the listener is drawn through zones of dissolving melody and shadowy rhythm, passing through spaces that feel neither entirely natural nor entirely artificial. A drum sample on Track 2, provided by Andris Brinkmanis, adds a skeletal percussive element - a quiet agitation beneath the calm. The rhythms are not dominant but suggestive, like distant industrial echoes or memories of forgotten structures.

The artists manipulate the digital medium not as a tool of perfection, but of erosion and transformation. Hiss is preserved. Glitches are welcomed. The human ear remains present in every detail. The processing - granular, filtered, stretched - is not ornamental but fundamental, a way of sculpting emotion out of signal. Field recordings are often submerged, embedded beneath layers of drones and rhythms, yet their presence adds a layer of organic residue - a trace of wind, rust, or breath beneath the circuitry.

A Tactile Offering...

True to the ethos of Fluid Audio, the physical release of The Promise of a Threat will be crafted with great care and material sensitivity. Expect a limited, hand-assembled edition that honours the intimacy and intricacy of the music - an object to be held, as much as heard. Full packaging details and release date will follow.

For now, The Promise of a Threat lingers just at the edge of hearing - like the low hum of an incoming storm, or the quiet reassurance of knowing something is coming, even if its shape remains undefined.

Human of the Future is the music project of Robin Neilly.

The music is about telling stories through sound, with melodies, atmospheres, and rhythms that carry feeling.


Hand Clap, is the moniker of Maya Borjesson, an Architect and visual/sound Artist. Using synthesizers, spoken word, and field recordings, their compositions explore themes of connection, memory, nostalgia and grief.
This year Hand Clap embarked on a tour of Japan, supported Penelope Trappes and presented ‘A Thread Beneath Our Skin’ at No Vacancy Gallery. This body of visual and sound work, traced the layered and intimate terrain of connection - between individuals, identities, and past and present selves - it was a practice of listening outward, as well as, to the quiet within. 
Hand Clap’s practice is deeply personal and sits at the crossroads of ambient music, electronic experimentation, string composition, and visual art.

Sounds produced with field recordings, Novation Circuit Tracks, KORG Gadget for Nintendo Switch, Koala Sampler for Android, GrooveMixer for Android, XLN Audio Life and Spacecraft Granular for Android. 

Additional production and mixing using Audacity and Traktion Waveform for Windows, and the plugins ADSR Drum Machine, ADSR Hexcel, Lunacy Audio Cube, Freakshow Industries Dumpster Fire, and various Thenaten plugins. 

Most voice samples from sample packs published by Gowler Music. Some samples from random viewings of public domain movies. No copyright abuse intended.

....free electrons and molecules of sound.....

.......started experimenting with sounds and voices, field recordings and cheap electronic equipment in the late eighties. 
At that time known as Majorana and Inutil, I was also involved in the Mail-Art network with worldwide project exhibitions.
As Loalue, I've started to work with software in 2005, producing music "for your headphones only" while painting pointillism soundscapes.
My artistic approach is mainly influenced by African and Asian music and traditional art as well as contemporary art and photography.
