SUSPENDED FEATHERS

Suspended Feathers belongs to Alio Die (Stefano Musso) earliest explorations into heavenly inspired trancey dronescapes. Stefano Musso is a very prolific artist who (along his careerà has delivered constant quality inside experimental dreamy electronic music. His creative ambiental soundscapes are reminiscence to Robert Rich, Arold Budd, Steve Roach and others electronic pionniers. However the static ambient sculptures include much more substantial intuitive-improvised parts with regular uses of droning sequences and darker-lugubrious atmospheres. The moving, spacious and sonic musical background is often punctuated by manipulated sounds taken from the nature, giving to the piece a sort of sacred flavour evocating metempsychosis. All compositions are quite evocative, including fragile melodies and harmonious-ethereal-melodic phrases. It finishes with the rainy-pastoral Wings of Firefall and its natural sounds and its eerie-textured droning moves. Vital experimental work that introduces harmonious correspondances between our own subjectivity and the sacred theatre of the universe. A good introduction to Stefano Musso's original world of sounds before to be involved into his sublime "environmental" electronic trilogy (Hidden Spring, Stanze of Transcendance, Leaves Net).
