Tocca il Futuro w/ Anatolian Weapons - LYL Radio - 7th Nov 2024

We’re starting the new year with an exciting episode on @lyl_radio, featuring a one-hour mix by musician and visual artist Daniele Veronese.

This show is carefully structured into two symmetrical yet contrasting parts, balancing opposing energies and moods. It was recorded live in real-time, without any overdubs, using a combination of tracks from his personal collections and live improvisation. Voices, objects, piano, synths, and a drum machine were layered together to create a rich and immersive soundscape.

Dedicated to Bruno Theron

Tocca il Futuro w/ Daniele Veronese - LYL Radio - 16th Jan 2025

We are thrilled to reveal CQR, the ninth release from Tocca il Futuro and the latest visionary project from the extraordinary musician and visual artist, @dnlvrns. CQR, short for "C’est qu’il reste", represents a bold new chapter in Veronese’s artistic journey, seamlessly blending the worlds of sound and visual art into an immersive, multi-sensory experience.

The music of CQR unfolds like an intricate tapestry, weaving ambient sounds that are sometimes abstract, sometimes tangible, reflecting the more intimate and enigmatic aspects of memory. His approach blends acoustic instruments with electronic textures, crafting an atmosphere that feels suspended between past and present, between what was and what could have been. This is not just music—it’s a reflection on time, memory, and the ways in which they shape our identities.

An essential part of CQR is the seamless connection between the music and the accompanying visual artwork, both crafted by Veronese himself. The album cover serves as a visual counterpart to the sound, capturing the blurred nature of memories and their constant evolution. The artwork features abstract details and dissolving forms, mirroring the fading and fluctuating nature of thoughts and emotions over time. The visual and sonic elements work in tandem, creating a rich, immersive experience that delves deeper into the concept of memory and its ephemeral quality.

Welcome to the special Tocca il Futuro show on LYL radio, dedicated to David Lynch.

This is not just a tribute, it’s a journey into the sonic imagination of one of the most visionary artists of our time. The musical selection in this episode pays homage to Lynch’s universe, tracing his artistic path from his groundbreaking experiments in sound design—shaped alongside the legendary Alan R. Splet—to his musical explorations with unconventional artists and composers.

Let yourself be transported into a world where dreams and nightmares intertwine, giving life to brilliant visions—an experience that defies logic and awakens our deepest emotions just like his art!

Tracklist compiled and mixed by Davide Pestillo and Claudio Cuccovillo.

Tocca il Futuro - LYL Radio - 27th Feb 2025

This month we're heading to Kasai, Japan, to explore the world of Tobira Records, a record shop and independent label curated by Takahiro Yorifuji. For this episode, Takahiro has created a 60-minute mix that reflects the essence of the store: a meditative blend of ambient textures, gentle drones, and immersive soundscapes. A sonic journey through the influences that define Tobira's shelves.

Tocca il Futuro w/ Tobira Records - LYL Radio - 24th Apr 2025

We’re excited to announce that the new season on LYL Radio is kicking off with monthly episodes of Tocca il Futuro. Opening this new chapter is Francesco Toninelli aka De' Lamperi, a sound maker from Florence. His work centers on the discovery and reinvention of the past and its representations, the relationship with territory and environment, and vernacular culture. Always deeply connected to the materiality of sound and its interaction with other elements. Expect a selection of mostly recently published music reflecting an incessant search for meaning beyond the act of understanding, a non-logocentric epiphany. A hallucination of feelings and signs, and the ways they cling to matter.



Tocca il Futuro w/ De' Lamperi - LYL Radio - 25th Sep 2025

The new episode of Tocca il Futuro on LYL Radio is a special feature dedicated to the collaboration between sound artist Ramona Ponzini and Italian industrial pioneer Maurizio Bianchi, who have recently released their album “Seti non tael tene”. Their exclusive contribution for LYL, titled “Only Blue Is Not Enough,” unfolds as a true spin-off of the record, revealing its sources and inner resonances. Bianchi reworks tracks from his light ambient trilogy — Colori, First Day/Last Day, and Dates — using electronic keyboards to shape them into hypnotic cycles. Ponzini layers cut-ups of reworked texts drawn from Carl Gustav Jung’s Seven Sermons to the Dead (1916) and dialogues extracted from Pier Paolo Pasolini’s Teorema (1968). The texts are recited by AI-generated voices, while Ponzini blends her own voice with subtle Japanese percussions and the surface noise of an old Rainer Riehn vinyl.

Tocca il Futuro w/ Ramona Ponzini & Maurizio Bianchi - LYL Radio - 23rd Oct 2025

Fifty years after his passing, we pay homage to Pier Paolo Pasolini—an exceptional poet, a visionary filmmaker, and a bold intellectual who fearlessly challenged power, society, and their deepest contradictions.

His tragic death in Ostia left an immense void in the cultural landscape, in Italy and far beyond. Pasolini was more than an artist: he was a sharp, courageous, and often prophetic voice. His work and ideas continue to resonate today with the force of someone who never ceased to pursue truth.

This special show on LYL Radio honors him through music, featuring a curated selection of soundtracks from his films—composed by legends such as Ennio Morricone and Piero Umiliani—alongside songs dedicated to him by international artists including Patti Smith, Fabrizio De André, Black Sun Productions.

A musical journey to remember, to reflect, and to celebrate one of the most influential figures of the twentieth century.
