Amsterdam (Live from Reykjavík)

Fluid Audio announces 'Series Of Room', the quietly moving new release from Italian composer Grotta Veterano. Mastered by Ian Hawgood and featuring cover artwork by Danish artist Øjerum, the album offers a deeply introspective journey through sound, memory, and emotional architecture.

Initially recorded as a series of private piano sketches - “written improvisations, controlled sketches” - the tracks were never intended as a cohesive album. Yet when brought together, they began to resemble something whole: a constellation of internal spaces, unresolved and beautifully unrefined.

“They ended up becoming a series of rooms,” writes Grotta Veterano, “each one made of memory, of recurring fragments from the past, reconstructed over time. When I say ‘a series of rooms,’ I mean the ones we carry inside us, not physical spaces.”

Each piece unfolds like an overheard thought, a door left ajar. There’s no grand statement here-only presence, absence, and the trace of something lived. With its unadorned fragility and its refusal to over-explain, Series Of Room speaks in the language of quiet honesty.

The album is presented in a meticulously handcrafted edition of 50 copies, drawing from the same tradition of tactile collage and analogue storytelling that has defined recent Fluid Audio editions. Each set features original Ordnance Survey map segments, cloth-backed and carefully bound, forming a unique shell for each copy. Also included are custom-designed A6 prints on heavyweight uncoated stock, vintage photographic slides, black & white travel photographs, photo negatives, and salvaged book pages from. Fragments of reel-to-reel field recording tape, antique travel stubs, and ephemera gathered from forgotten drawers complete the assembly.

All elements are housed in a hand-waxed, stamped, scented archival bag, individually numbered. No two packages are alike. No repress.
