Noises From Above: A Study in Quiet Intrusions is an album shaped around the small, persistent sounds that leak into our private spaces—those half-heard murmurs from neighbours, the distant thrum of traffic, the creaks and hums of a building settling into its own rhythms. The tracks capture a different facet of the world that slips past walls and doors, turning everyday disturbances into textures, moods, and emotional landscapes. It’s an exploration of how these subtle intrusions colour our solitude, interrupt our thoughts, and quietly become part of the soundtrack of living in close proximity to others.

Everything Becomes Background

Johannes D’Amico is an ambient composer and field recordist whose work explores the subtle beauty of sound and atmosphere. 
Blending organic field recordings with evolving synthesiser textures, his music captures quiet moments of reflection and transforms them into immersive listening experiences.

Drawn to the delicate details of the world around him—the rustle of leaves, the rhythm of rain, the hum of distant places—Johannes approaches composition as a form of observation. 
His pieces invite stillness and awareness, offering space for emotion, memory, and imagination to unfold naturally.

Guided by curiosity and a quiet sense of wonder, Johannes continues to shape sound into a language of contemplation and presence—crafting music that resonates deeply and connects listeners to the essence of the moment.
