Missing

Remix by The Echelon Effect.

The single WAVES was performed and mixed by Francesco Berta in London, the vocal layers were written and recorded by singer Anne Van Den Hoogen in Amsterdam and the EP was mastered by John Webber at the legendary Air Studios in London.

“When I made some people listen to a preview of the track they were surprised, they told me it was beautiful yet different from everything I did before. But on one level, I must never lose touch with my audience. But I must, at some point, stop trying to get everybody to like me, and be true to my musical soul, to what I feel and I have to say. It’s a challenging moment to live as an artist and composer because these days everyone is writing music on his laptop. Music making has become accessible to almost everyone, that’s why it’s important to find what defines you, and chase it”.

The official video is directed by Isaac Madge, a writer, director & filmmaker based in West Sussex & London, passionate about low budget filmmaking and telling stories that really make an impact.

The video is starring Lucy Elizabeth Anderson and Joe James.

“The video is inspired by the true story of a friend of mine” says Francesco “she’s suffering a form of dissociative disorder. When I told Isaac this story he jumped on board straight on, and he did an amazing job portraying that reality. Also the actors are young but terrific and spontaneous, I’m really satisfied by the overall work”.

Underground mainstay and long time melodic and progressive champion Guy Gerber is back on his own Rumors label with Every Time We Say Goodbye, a new Ep that shows he continues to evolve his style without forgetting his signature. Gerber has been a core part of the underground for years, heading the world's most revered clubs and festivals, bringing all new party concepts to Ibiza and serving up serene and synth heavy soundscape that move people physically and emotionally on labels like Cocoon, Italians Do It Better and of course Rumors.

‘The 18th Floor’ is a hypnotic journey built on dubby low-end grooves and fluid, meandering leads. Angelic, reverb-soaked vocal fragments drift through the mix, giving the track a dreamlike atmosphere that’s equally suited for peak-time or deeper, introspective moments.

December in Delhi captures the cold air, empty roads, and quiet thoughts that hit different in the city’s winter nights. It’s a blend of nostalgia, loneliness, and clarity - the feeling of walking through Delhi fog with your headphones on, replaying memories and finding yourself in the silence. This track is about moments that stay with you long after the night ends.

It is the 5th volume of the Piano Textures series started in 2007.
Analog Mastered by Ian Hawgood
"Bruno Sanfilippo’s imagination knows no bounds. The prolific pianist and composer has poured a lifetime exploring contemporary classical patterns and minimalism into his Piano Textures series, records of austere beauty and quiet, melancholic reflection. Piano Textures 5, his latest release, expands on this palette, yet feels freer and looser. From the opening track, which sounds like sunrise on a spring day, Sanfilippo imbues the music with lightness and a sense of optimism – songs float by, as if on a cloud. The result is his most open, engaging work yet, songs for the heart that speak to the joy of life" ad21

The Italian title Torniamo dentro (Let's Go Back Inside) has a double meaning: the direct one ﻿(for instance: Let's go back inside home and have some dinner) and the allegorical (Let's go back inside within ourselves and look at our souls again).

In any case, the atmosphere is poetic, mysterious, delicate, hovering, levitating. The piece could go on sounding forever, it doesn't need to stop.

This piano piece was composed in Bremen, Germany, on 17 January 2018 and received its premiere at the Dorfgemeinschaftshaus, Sulzbach, Germany, on 2 September 2018.
Find a video recording of the premiere here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bld9BFiLCQ0

"Torniamo dentro" is a piece that Juan María performs often at his concerts devoted to neoclassical music.

Torniamo dentro (Bösendorfer Grand Piano)

My recent phase of recording real piano improvisations, continues with this piece entitled "Shadows". You may not believe me, but I literally sit down at the piano & let my fingers fall to a position on the keys. From there, I just start noodling around. Often, the first thing that happens, is the central part of the tune to come. I can't explain how this happens, but it is a real "rush" of an experience. Some musicians take drugs, smoke, drink or fornicate, but I chase this "natural high" of improvising as often as I can. Enjoy!

Your Smile - The David Roy Collective

Francesco is an Italian born music composer, pianist and visual artist. 

In the first ten years of his career Francesco has been able to collect a substantial list of wide-ranging achievements: from conducting his own music in the legendary Abbey Road Studios in London to releasing an impressive number of albums as a solo artist; scoring movies and documentaries to directing award-winning short films.

Francesco’s work ethic is second to none, but his greatest asset is, undoubtedly, his unconditional love for film: having a bachelor’s degree in Film Technology and a burning desire to create stories that will stand the test of time.

Drawn to simplicity and driven by a fanatical attention to detail, Francesco creates music that blurs the lines between ambient, electronic and orchestral.

His instinctive use of acoustic instruments combines the elegance of traditional orchestration with complex, electronic landscapes, melding into emotive and exquisitely elegant hybrid-orchestral compositions.

Francesco’s music takes listeners on a passionate journey through images and emotions, creating stories and shaping memories.
