Franco Battiato Correnti gravitazionali • by withor

Why own a collection (a posthumous one, in this case) of an artist whose entire discography you already possess? Well, the answer can only be irrational: it depends solely on being a (die-hard) fan of that particular artist, thus supporting the very mercenary commercial operations put into effect by variou…

Wolfgang Groos Nonni alle prime armi • by bastoncinoverde

Small bourgeois comedy with a Teutonic twist, very politically correct; only, I must add, it's quite distressing to see Sukowa in such predicaments again.

Francesco "G" Music Terminal • by GullaryShulmann

So, relatively off the cuff. With the first album "Manifesto spurio della musica simpatica," the "string" of "The-" Francesco "G" makes his bad intentions clear by distributing pieces of questionable taste that incorporate some of the main fundamentals of ambient and digital music shamelessly vomited onto the unsuspecting (but no…

Fabrizio Ferraro Quattro notti di uno straniero • by bastoncinoverde

I loved this alienated and alienating film, mysterious, oblique, and minimal; practically nothing happens, there are no dialogues, only background noises, a stunning and distressing black and white photography, a lesser yet true and vibrant Paris, and a love comme il faut, what else?

Hiroshi Yoshimura Soft Wave for Automatic Music Box • by asterics

Like soft, fluffy strips of unrolled paper, automated rustles that don't disturb sleep.

Nicolas Jaar Space Is Only Noise • by CosmicJocker

It's like the opening sequence of Altman’s "The Player" where each character - even if just for a few moments - managed to capture attention with something distinctive given to them alone.

Flavio Giurato Marco Polo • by RamirezAlHassar

Like a clot of honey at the bottom of an herbal tea made with thistle, dandelion, and artichoke.
Better yet, like a date at the bottom of a bitter coffee.

Vladislav Delay Entain • by CosmicJocker

Exasperated exhalation, wide eyes and neck turning to the left. Unfailingly to the left.

Imagine Dragons Mercury - Act 2 • by splinter

The question is one that torments. Who the hell are Imagine Dragons? A banal pop band that wants to do more but can't, or a band with musical solidity resting on its shining laurels? I started following them from their first album enticed by a friend who I don't thin…

Bettye Swann Then You Can Tell Me Goodbye • by Almotasim

Take a Doo Wop piece and turn it into Soul Music. But real Soul Music. Music of the soul, through and through. Only the soul takes the shape of the body, against another body. Blood carries it. It swells. It pumps the chest of the heart. Bettye initially whisper…

AA. VV. 2022: 13 most played songs • by Taurus

I spent more time checking out Rateyourmusic suggestions and reading reviews than actually listening to the latest releases.

Noise & Paradox Transmograpfication • by ZiOn

Among the main powers of music, I would undoubtedly mention its ability to make us escape from the everyday and project us towards "distant worlds" we never dreamed of exploring.

Arab Strap As Days Get Dark • by DocEmmettBrown

A journey! Once you place the record on the turntable and set the needle down, this is all you can expect from this album... rich in seemingly dark atmospheres... almost as if you were trying to look at someone in the shadows, from a distance, squinting your eyes... "Compersion Pt.1"…

Moby Play: The B Sides • by Eneathedevil

I know that you don't like Moby. Activist, devout Catholic, and committed vegan: Moby is ultimately the anti-rockstar par excellence, the stubborn moral of a country priest, the whining voice that announces the delay of a train at the station, the rerun of the badly dubbed TV series that n…
