wonderful ambient mood - delightfully played....

this piece is wonderful, thank you so much for sharing it with us. 

Steve Reich comes to mind actually with the repeated arpeggios and the beautiful cascading rhythmic lines of the notes...nice!!

Great tune indeed. Deserves much more appreciation. :)

Your music is so unique. Keep painting sounds on silence for the world to hear.

Following the warmly-received Paces (1631 Recordings/Decca Publishing) and the collaborative Stadsbilder (Time Released Sound), Swedish composer and multi-instrumentalist Jakob Lindhagen presents his second solo full-length album Memory Constructions on piano and coffee records.

Recorded together with German brother-duo Sebastian and Daniel Selke (aka CEEYS, whose collaborations also include Ólafur Arnalds and Spitfire) and longtime artistic collaborator Sofia Nystrand (Vargkvint), the album merges elements of neoclassical and ambient music, with a foundation of intimate piano works paired with violoncello and vocal synth, expanded with musical saw, kantele, bowed glockenspiel and sound experiments, recorded to analogue equipment. 

”Memories are an equally complicated as fascinating aspect of the human mind. After realizing a couple of memories from my childhood surroundings simply didn’t add up - the timeline didn’t make sense so I couldn’t have been in that place at that time, or a block of houses not being placed where they actually were - I became slightly obsessed with memory research. Our memories play such a huge part of our identities, yet they are extremely unreliable, change and fade over time, and are easily influenced and manipulated. And yet I couldn’t help myself also finding beauty in the fact that I both completely trust and distrust my own memories, that make up who I am. So digging from these slightly contradicting feelings, and from where my own memories are either constructed, fading, forgotten, rewritten, made up or completely true, this album was concieved.” 

Memory Constructions has been supported by the Swedish Arts Council, and is coming out digitally and on limited edition vinyl on the 23rd of September, featuring artwork by Sofia Nystrand and desing/layout by Celia Bayo.

Jakob Lindhagen - Tomorrow

It's the 1st advance from my forthcoming album ‘Ver Sacrum’, out on March 10 through ad21
"Spectral and haunting, there’s an almost monastic quality to ‘Sacred Spring’, the first piece to be taken from pianist and composer Bruno Sanfilippo’s forthcoming new album ‘Ver Sacrum’. An air of quiet solitude too; poignant strings wash in and out of focus punctuated by a slow, melancholic organ line. Like all his best work, it’s emotionally resonant yet quietly captivating, a master class in mood and shadow" Derek Robertson, journalist and music writer: Guardian, Independent, NME, VICE, Timeout, The Quietus, The Face.

"This bucolic and cyclical piece, based on electronic-organic sounds, aims to evoke the strength and purity of the tangible – the experience of hugging, touching wet soil, or getting gently wet from a fine drizzle, arms open and looking up at the sky”

“Tangible was composed towards the end of the Covid lockdown. It’s inspired by personal reflection about real and virtual experiences; society has been forced to evolve in terms of how we relate to each other, and to spend a large amount of time staring at screens. However, as the poet Pedro Salinas reminds us: “You always live in your actions. With the tips of your fingers you press the world, you tear off auroras, triumphs, colors, joys: it's your music. Life is what you touch”. 
In this way, the album aims to evoke the strength and purity of the tangible – the experience of hugging, touching wet soil, or getting gently wet from a fine drizzle, arms open and looking up at the sky” B.S


“Right from the start, Bruno Sanfilippo’s Tangible is a blissful, serene dream. The record’s songs blossom gently, like an autumn sunrise, and convey a profound sense of joy and euphoria. Combining piano, strings, and minimalist electronica, there’s real beauty here too; fragile piano lines woven with soaring strings and soft synth washes. Yet Bruno doesn’t merely evoke deep emotions – his work is playful in places, imbued with a little mischief. It’s what gives Tangible its heart and humanity. Sinking into these twelve tracks is wondrously life-affirming, and confirms Sanfilippo as one of the best, most soulful pianists and composers in the world” Derek Robertson, freelance journalist and music writer: Guardian, Independent, NME, VICE, Timeout, The Quietus, The Face.
