Mission Kepler was born from the idea of the exodus of mankind to another planet. 
It is a visual instrumental concept album, therefore the story is told through the images, with the exception of Chapter 4 which features a computerized voice which briefly recounts the sequence of events.
All the tracks are composed, arranged and mixed by Orazio Tristano Curzio, including the editing of the video.
Orazio Tristano is a guitarist, composer and arranger. He has played in many independent bands, playing at various festivals. His musical background ranges from classic rock bands, such as Led Zeppelin, to more experimental ones, such as Radiohead, via Pink Floyd’s progressive rock.
In this concept album there is a strong classic rock influence, insofar as every chapter is based on a riff, which is then revised and transformed with the aid of electronic instruments and fx, distancing it from the classic riff concept as it was understood in the 70’s, leading it towards Lo/Fi and Sci/Fi.
Synthesizers, guitars, sitars and mellotrons are combined, generating a futuristic atmosphere that accompany this long introspective journey.
