March 15, 2020. The first hidden sound page from isolation diary.
From A Spring Diary, released May 24, 2020
Performed & Recorded by Matteo Mariano in 2020

March 15 is the first of a series of 4 tracks collected in the album "A Spring Diary". All of these were written during the first major lockdown in Italy that went from March to May 2020. This strange period of closure took me back to the spring of five years earlier, in 2015, when a series of situations and concerns brought my family and me to experience a sort of unspoken "family lockdown" to the outside world.
"A Spring Diary" is a book of notes of discordant moods, between hope and uncertainty, lived between waiting and trying to take advantage of the imposed pause to rework the past.

March 15 è la prima di una serie di 4 tracce raccolte nell'album "A Spring Diary". Tutte queste sono state scritte durante il primo grande lockdown che in Italia è andato da Marzo a Maggio del 2020. Questo strano periodo di chiusura mi portò indietro alla primavera di cinque anni prima, nel 2015, quando una serie di situazioni e preoccupazioni portarono la mia famiglia e me a vivere una sorta di "lockdown familiare" inespresso verso l'esterno. 
"A Spring Diary" è un libro di appunti di stati d'animo discordanti, tra speranza e incertezza, vissuti tra l'attesa e cercare di sfruttare la pausa imposta per rielaborare il passato.

A Spring Diary

March 15

I was trained in tradition, yet I stepped beyond its walls. Sound is my language, not to decorate but to liberate. Composer, performer, and listener — one fire, three sparks, inseparable.

I write and compose to uncover what is hidden: the truth buried beneath power, the dignity of the ordinary, the current of awareness that flows through all.

I belong to no authority, only to sound, to truth, to the silence from which all begins. My work is not mastery, but remembrance — a manifesto in every note, every word, every breath.

I am a composer of the 21st century: a studio artist. The studio is my forge, my battlefield, my sanctuary. Machines hum like choirs, circuits burn like torches, cables twist like roots in the earth. Tradition breaks open in this fire — the score turns to light, the instrument becomes the world itself.

To be a studio artist is to seize sound at its rawest, to sculpt electricity and breath as one, to summon the invisible power that belongs to all. Here music is not bound by walls, not enslaved by profit, not tamed by form. It is free, untouchable, unending — a living flame for the century that is ours.

Welcome here to everyone.

I hope what you'll hear inspires you.

For your growth or fall
Through the cathartic world of sounds 
that I try to propose. 

A test area 

A search for meaning 
Of this passage for ours.

Sound as a primordial frequency
Before any acquired significance

If what you hear resonates with your tuning fork
A like and a repost would be of great support.

May your journey be pleasant and constructive
in this sea of instants called life

The eternity of our days.
