Call It Yesterday

End Of The Line

To celebrate the first anniversary of "Universal Laws" I have recorded a new song. The female voice that pops up every now and then belongs to my mom, queen in the kitchen and now even in the studio!

This used to be the closing jingle of an Italian music radio show called TERMINUS

Terminus

TERMINUS

This is my remix of a song by the Hungarian artist Virtual Explorer of Noise

Nothing remains (Sir Joe club remix)

I hope you can catch the irony of the lyrics... :)

Keep it simple

Sir Joe - Keep It Simple

I started to compose music using an Ensoniq SQ1 workstation, a Fostex 4 tracks recorder, a cheap microphone and an effect box. By the time computers became powerful stand-alone recording work-stations, I decided to rely upon music software only, and their flexibility in terms of sound choice and mixing techniques helped my music to develop from simple synth-pop tunes to more elaborate compositions, spanning over a wide spectrum of the electronica sub genres. 
In June 2011 I released my first album, "The Observer", which can still be purchased directly from my website http://www.sir-joe.com 
September 2013 saw the release of "Universal Laws". Although not a concept album per se, "Universal Laws" is centered towards two main themes: regret or suffering caused by past experiences, and hope for the future via spiritual evolution. One method to achieve this evolution is revealed in the album's title track. The idea, in fact, is that when we know how the universal laws work, we can use them to our advantage and set our life in the direction we desire. The concept derives from the 'New Thought Movement", which was developed in the United States at the end of the 19th century, and is nowadays finding scientific endorsement via quantum physics experiments. Each song deals with one or sometimes both of the above illustrated themes, and since the music follows the mood of the lyrics, some songs are fast and aggressive, while others are more quiet and meditative.
The album has been received very well, and the opening track 'End of the line' has won a music award at The Akademia: http://www.theakademia.com/alternative_rock_best_song_october_2013_awards
