‘ante mare undae’
Modular Hedonism.
Track created in 2022.

'Ante Mare Undae' is the motto of the House of Rochechouart (Latin contraction of 'Avant que la mer fût au monde, Rochechouart portait les ondes' / 'Before the sea was in the world, Rochechouart carried the waves').

Madame de Montespan, the Sun King's great love and mistress, belonged to this very old French family. They regularly met up at the former ‘Porcelain Trianon’ located in the royal estate of Versailles, a place renowned for its marvellous gardens.

« Pitié pour moi, mon Dieu, dans ton amour, selon ta grande miséricorde, efface mon pêché. Lave-moi tout entier de ma faute, purifie-moi de ton offense. Oui, je connais mon pêché, ma faute est toujours devant moi. Contre toi, et toi seul, j'ai pêché, ce qui est mal à tes yeux, je l'ai fait. Ainsi, tu peux parler et montrer ta justice, être juge et montrer ta victoire. Moi, je suis né dans la faute, j'étais pêcheur dès le sein de ma mère. Mais tu veux au fond de moi la vérité;  dans le secret, tu m'apprends la sagesse. Purifie-moi avec l'hysope, et je serai pur; lave-moi et je serai blanc, plus que la neige. Fais que j'entende les chants et la fête : ils danseront, les os que tu broyais. Détourne ta face de mes fautes, enlève tous mes pêchés. Crée en moi un coeur pur, ô mon Dieu, renouvelle et raffermis au fond de moi mon Esprit. Ne me chasse pas loin de ta face, ne me reprends pas ton Esprit Saint. Rends-moi la joie d'être sauvé; que l'Esprit généreux me soutienne. Aux pêcheurs, j'enseignerai tes chemins; vers toi, reviendront les égarés. Libère-moi du sang versé, Dieu mon sauveur et ma langue acclamera ta justice. Seigneur, ouvre mes lèvres et ma bouche annoncera ta louange. Si j'offre un sacrifice, tu n'en veux pas, tu n'acceptes pas d'holocauste. Le sacrifice qui plaît à Dieu, c'est un Esprit brisé; tu ne repousses pas, ô mon Dieu, un coeur brisé et broyé. Accorde à Sion le bonheur, relève les murs de Jérusalem. Alors tu accepteras de justes sacrifices, oblations et holocaustes, * alors on offrira des taureaux sur ton autel. Amen, Amen...»
« Please be pity for me, my God, in your love, according to your great mercy, and clear my sin. Wash me all of my fault, cleanse me from your offense. Yes, I know my sin, my fault is always before me. Against you, and you alone, I have fished, which is bad for you, I have done it. So you can speak and show your justice, be a judge and show your victory. I was born in fault, I was a fisherman from my mother's womb. But you want the truth in my heart; in secret you teach me wisdom. Purify me with hyssop, and I will be clean; wash me and I will be white, more than snow. Make me hear the songs and the party: they will dance, the bones that you crush. Turn away your face from my faults, take away all my sins. Create in me a pure heart, O my God, renew and strengthen my Spirit within me. Do not cast me away from your face, do not take me back your Holy Spirit. Give me the joy of being saved; let the generous Spirit sustain me. To the fishermen I will teach your paths; to you the lost will return. Free me from the blood shed, God my savior and my tongue will cheer your righteousness. O Lord, open my lips, and my mouth will preach your praise. If I offer a sacrifice, you don't want it, you don't accept a holocaust. The sacrifice which pleases God is a broken Spirit; you do not reject, O my God, a broken and crushed heart. Give Zion happiness, lift the walls of Jerusalem. Then you will accept righteous sacrifices, oblations and burnt offerings, and bulls will be offered on your altar. Amen, Amen...»

Boson Spin - Vouceratio

Extended version of the track "Catedral", composed for the original soundtrack of the film "La Nevada", directed by Anna Tyurina and Juan Matías Musa.

Composed and performed by Matteo Mariano (2020) 

MAGNETIC SERIES – Album – Format: CD, Digital – Releases September 20, 2024

“I’ve always had a deep connection with magnetic tape. Since the end of the ’80s, when I was just a kid, musical experimentation was inextricably linked to that medium, to the tapes that filled my days. Every recording, every edit, every sound etched onto those tapes represented my first naive steps into the world of music. It was a way to explore, to get to know myself and the sounds I could create.

Then, in the late ’90s, the introduction to Minidiscs and, later, HD recording changed everything. Daily interaction with tape seemed like a thing of the past, forgotten in favor of newer, more immediate, and versatile technologies. But that magic, that physicality, was hard to replace.

Over the years, I’ve watched with curiosity as magnetic tape made its return to the tables of ambient and experimental music creators. I realized that many had already rediscovered and embraced this medium, while for others, it had never really gone away. I, on the other hand, was much slower to return. But it was precisely through the works of other artists that I found the drive to immerse myself once again in this dimension, more convinced than ever.

Since 2020, after some attempts to incorporate tape elements into my compositions, I began to explore this path more seriously. I started creating tracks where the use of magnetic tape wasn’t just an accessory, but an expressive end in itself. “Magnetic Series” is not a concept album in the traditional sense, but rather a collection of tracks created between 2020 and 2024, united by a common thread: the manipulation of tape in various forms, from cassette loops to reel-to-reel, from slowed-down/speed-up tracks to entire mix passed through tape.

Beyond the allure of nostalgia and the fun that this medium provides, magnetic tape offers something unique: an intransigence that digital lacks. While digital allows you infinite possibilities, tape forces you to make definitive choices, pushing you into a creative process that permits no compromises. And perhaps it’s this very unyielding nature that makes it so fascinating and valuable.“

Catedral (extended Version)

Catedral

A place for sound freaks lashing out from the dark. 

So there's all kinds of stuff on this page, but after months of schizophrenic debates about who was playing with who and who took the lead while doing it, finally, the decision was made: all my alter egos got together and decided to form a band. From 2020 on new tracks are created under the moniker Gruppo Infernal. Only pure MMTJ tracks will still be named as such. 

Gruppo Infernal still relies on my work as Me, my Thumb and Jack, an ongoing quest for a liberating approach to sound creation where the human body acts as an oscillator amplifying the natural 50hz hum. Direct live recording, improvisations and delay loops only using analog filters and effects. No editing, no overdubs. Gruppo Infernal adds digital treatment to this original sound material. 

UnterPitch was an alter ego using samples & synths.
Bleached Coffins was a one-off project using guitars.
