Matteo Uggeri - Walk Through The Fields

From the forthcoming album "Batalha" issued by Old Bicycle Records.

Nuno Moita & Matteo Uggeri - Machine Help Humans

A production by Oak Editions / Monkey Records

From a timeless and distant place originates "At Sunset", the single from the album project "Flow Signs" which will be released in late November 2013.

With an endless and blurred flow, images of memory and dream-visions will accompany you in a stream of consciousness into a poignant sunset.

Flow Signs are Rome-based musicians Francesco Giannico (electronics, samples, guitar) and Theo Allegretti (acoustic grand piano, prepared piano).

At Sunset by FLOW SIGNS - Francesco Giannico & Theo Allegretti

'A Shy Early Morning' Excerpt from FLOW SIGNS album  - released on 29th Dec 2013 for OakEditions

<<The project "Flow Signs" was born by the encounter of Francesco Giannico, electroacoustic musician and video artist, with Theo Allegretti, ambient-jazz pianist and composer, based on a common poetic and musical sensibility that favors natural landscapes, surreal environments and rich interior scenarios, such as particular places from which emerge suggestions that would provide a different view also of our daily life worlds>>.

'The webzine research is always directed towards the less conventional experience, therefore if this would be a section of a hypothetical guide, there is so much to say also about the support from independent labels such as Afe, Silentes and, as much as we should write the efforts of label such as Boring Machines and Fratto9, that join themselves together with different micro-noisy scenes around the country. We would not even end here, see Nephogram by Rosati , Farmacia 901 by Perletta , Ripples by Mazzon and the newly formed Oak Editions by Ballerini and Giannico . The quality is high, and the proof is the constant interest we received from abroad, as they did Entr'Acte , Aurora Borealis, Small Doses , Cassauna ... even we still have to make more steps further ( Interestingly , in this sense , the policy " Italy against the rest of the world " from Fratto9 splits ). The sales seem to allow these - that sounds a little eye ' Istituto Luce - "brave independent publishers " to think every time to the next release, nothing more but nothing less, apparently. At this point, however, it would require a true collection of data and numbers; otherwise it should remain merely a general impression formed during some pleasant chat at festivals or concerts (but also have a look at this interview with Giuseppe Ielasi - tokafi.com / 15questions/15-questions-giuseppe-ielasi /).'

Small excerpt from last album 'Luminance' released by Somehow Recordings
2013


Reviewed by Beach Sloth on http://beachsloth.blogspot.it/2013/05/francesco-giannico-luminance-79.html
 Francesco Giannico’s ‘Luminance’ is an elegant album. How it luxuriously incorporates elements of the classical with a glossy sheen is quite impressive. At times it sounds akin to Max Richter put through digital synthesis. The result is extraordinarily calming. With this digital sound (and it is quite electronic) there’s a sense of true organic wonder. ‘Luminance’ achieves this human effect by carefully filtering field recordings, guitar plucks, and other reminders that there is a world outside of it. 

                The album begins with ‘Further’ which sets the tone for the album as a mellow, dreamy pillow of a song. ‘Lacks soul’ is an ironic name considering how deep in the center of it is a moving piano piece clouded by so much processing. Part of the joy of the song is how Francesco appears to peel away those digital layers revealing its true heart. On ‘Things we can not get’ things take a different approach. Field recordings are effectively employed on this track, the longest on the entire album. For this album there’s a true sense of drama with an uneasy melody that wheezes by. ‘A quiet dream’ takes the formula for the album and reverses it: beginning with the natural before it submerges into the edited. The album ends on a sleepy note with the narcoleptic ‘Suggestions’. 

Overall it is a lovely nebulous cloud of an album. This is the perfect soundtrack for a cloudy day. For though the sky is obscured there is beauty behind it. Thus the same is true for ‘Luminance’ and its dual digital/natural format.

Francesco Giannico uses acoustic and electric guitars, synths, electronics, and computers.

All tracks composed, performed, recorded and mixed by Francesco Giannico

Luminance - Further - 2013 Somehow Recordings

Oak editions is an independent music art label owned and managed by the ambient artists Francesco Giannico & Alessio Ballerini. It is mainly focused on the promotion and diffusion of electroacoustic, soundscape and ambient texture. The project was born two years after we had founded the Italian Soundscapes Archive also called A.I.P.S. (Archivio Italiano Paesaggi Sonori). In this website you may also find an online CD & Digital Download Store supporting the works and projects of the artists that belong to the label. The CD & Download orders are carried out safely and easily by PayPal. Our main feature is to produce special limited editions with very refined artworks and packagings. We give the possibility to buy our releases both in digital and physical format . The physical format is obviously more complete, behind a release there's a study of the concept, designed to know how to impress it on the artwork and how to produce the package too.
