Tament is an exploration of sound as both memory and possibility-an attempt to blur the boundary between the concrete and the imagined, the heard and the felt. This album is born out of an ongoing curiosity: what kind of dialogue can exist between the raw, unfiltered audio of the everyday and the abstract sonic worlds we construct through synthesis and production?

At its core, Tament weaves together field recordings, modular synthesizers, and software-generated textures. The ambient recordings are drawn directly from the soundscapes that surround me: the footsteps echoing through familiar streets, fragments of passing conversations, distant traffic, the subtle rhythms of urban life. These are the sounds that often fade into the background, yet they form the soundtrack of my existence. By capturing them, manipulating them, and placing them in new contexts, I aimed to reframe the ordinary-to open a space where the habitual becomes mysterious, and the familiar is rendered strange.

This project is not about documentation or representation. Rather, it’s about translation. I wanted to create an alternate version of the spaces I move through-a kind of dream logic of place, where reality is stretched and reassembled into something more ambiguous, immersive, and open-ended. In doing so, Tament becomes a liminal zone, a place between places.

Just as important as the sound itself was the intention behind its structure-or rather, the lack of imposed structure. I deliberately avoided giving the tracks a fixed narrative or emotional direction. There are no clear themes or guiding concepts here. The music offers a frame, not a story. It is a space left intentionally undefined, allowing each listener to encounter it without expectation, to inhabit it on their own terms. In that sense, Tament is less an album and more a set of sonic invitations.

It is about listening closely, noticing what usually slips past us, and discovering new meaning in repetition, texture, and silence - Glinca

Fluid Audio announces 'Series Of Room', the quietly moving new release from Italian composer Grotta Veterano. Mastered by Ian Hawgood and featuring cover artwork by Danish artist Øjerum, the album offers a deeply introspective journey through sound, memory, and emotional architecture.

Initially recorded as a series of private piano sketches - “written improvisations, controlled sketches” - the tracks were never intended as a cohesive album. Yet when brought together, they began to resemble something whole: a constellation of internal spaces, unresolved and beautifully unrefined.

“They ended up becoming a series of rooms,” writes Grotta Veterano, “each one made of memory, of recurring fragments from the past, reconstructed over time. When I say ‘a series of rooms,’ I mean the ones we carry inside us, not physical spaces.”

Each piece unfolds like an overheard thought, a door left ajar. There’s no grand statement here-only presence, absence, and the trace of something lived. With its unadorned fragility and its refusal to over-explain, Series Of Room speaks in the language of quiet honesty.

The album is presented in a meticulously handcrafted edition of 50 copies, drawing from the same tradition of tactile collage and analogue storytelling that has defined recent Fluid Audio editions. Each set features original Ordnance Survey map segments, cloth-backed and carefully bound, forming a unique shell for each copy. Also included are custom-designed A6 prints on heavyweight uncoated stock, vintage photographic slides, black & white travel photographs, photo negatives, and salvaged book pages from. Fragments of reel-to-reel field recording tape, antique travel stubs, and ephemera gathered from forgotten drawers complete the assembly.

All elements are housed in a hand-waxed, stamped, scented archival bag, individually numbered. No two packages are alike. No repress.

AQ13 live session

South Lake Tahoe Road Trip. 
This was our South Lake Tahoe Road Trip. 
It was a hundred degrees as we were leaving. 
It was sixty when we got there 
we were tired and it was raining 
something we had not considered. 

We napped under cozy blankets. 
it was quiet and we were tired.
Some dude knocked upon our window
we'd left our headlights on
and parked in the wrong damn driveway. 

South Lake Tahoe Road Trip. 
This was our South Lake Tahoe Road Trip. 
We wandered to the beaches 
with the best of stone walls
so far from the real stonewall.
We ate some thing delicious

We sat near a public boat ramp
watched big trucks with trailers
some with more skills than others
tempting fate and driving backwards

South Lake Tahoe Road Trip. 
This was our South Lake Tahoe Road Trip. 
Puddles was the first act 
a clown who sang about a pumpkin
and about a pinball wizard
He really likes Keven Costner. 

Then later in the evening 
came the man who sang Just Eat It
then later sang I'm Fat
Weird Al's a friggin' legend. 

South Lake Tahoe Road Trip. 
This was our South Lake Tahoe Road Trip. 
Early Monday morning 
still star struck from the evening
we found an obscure museum 
with a copper mine in the basement. 

There was a fruit stand on the way home. 
where we bought a jar of Frog Balls. 
It was an excellent adventure 
an excellent adventure.

Bambino: One shop destroyed. Three heads split like overripe melons. One man wounded and one castrated. All in two hours. Just two hours I left you alone. Two hours.
Trinity: Well, you asked me to give you a hand.
