Travel Stories.
2025 semi-live performance.

I started producing Trans-Lunar Injection (https://soundcloud.com/petrus-major/trans-lunar-injection-travel) before learning of Jim Lovell's passing. The initial reference was simple: I was inspired by Kraftwerk's TransEurope Express (thanks to @fhauna for spotting this reference) and I wanted to travel through space :) hence the chosen theme and title. I finished the track after Lovell's passing.

The Apollo VIII epic had a huge impact on me, even though I was young at the time, as had those of Apollo XI and the others, of course. So my little dedication was sincerely necessary.

Then I wanted another version, more streamlined, and above all focused on the Apollo VIII mission with this extraordinary message sent from lunar orbit, including the reading of the first verses of the Book of Genesis by each crew member, on Christmas Eve, December 24, 1968, during a television broadcast: a magnificent event within the event! (I might come back to this later).

Sorry for this long introduction...

abc iodized request - disquiet712

Drift, aka Alessandro Ferrario, defines his style as “Slow-motion electroacoustic sound paintings”, this definition comes from the tempo he uses, 40 BPM with 4/4 time signature, the main instrument he uses, an upright piano, and the layers crafted using the instruments you can find in orchestra, cello, viola, violin and double bass most of the times. He then elaborates all the patterns, adding modern era VSTs to create layers, like a painter does with paint.

In “Fragments of a Distant Now”, the artist explored time and memories, unfolding slow rhythms and digital manipulation to create textured atmospheres, which, like memories, can convey either relaxation or tension. Using delays, echoes, reverbs, and distortions, he crafts a sense of glitch in sound that mirrors the imperfections of fading memories.

I am still looking, trying and experimenting, I really like electronic ambient for many years, but it only works as a live percussionist. In short, nothing is black or white:)
In today's hectic world I need quiet sounds and the vast majority of songs created at night, so are my compositions such as they are.

My tracks is based on the absolute freedom of the use of sound. Arises as if I painted a picture. In the head is the base, and then adding the details here and there.
As well as if I were his music told the story.

I use: Ableton-Live-Suite with Partnerinstrumets, Kontakt Player + virtual instrumentzs,NI-Machine, Ableton Push, Acces Virus TI Snow, Waldorf Blofeld, AKAI MPK 49, Korg Microkorg XL+,KORG Kaossilator,Kaosspad,KORG Wavedrum, Roland HPD 20, nord lead A1 r, Yamaha mx49, Roland Edirol for Fieldrecordings - and various live percussion.(Kalimba, frame drum, tombak, koshi etc)
