A refined and subtle microtonal ambient work with alluring and playful instants of beauty and floating glimmers.
An intricate and deeply meditative effort
When it comes to the vast palette of tone colors and ecstatic-static vibrations offered by ambient music travellers that drive you to the confines, l must say that Italy (followed by Great Britain and Japan) come in first place thanks to the presence of highly creative artists with a fancy for ravishing textured sound morphologies. Dronarivm and also Lontano Series, Midira, and Unknown Tone Records largely participate to this aspiration; notably with signature artists such as Federico Mosconi, Francesco Giannico, and countless others. Italy has already been among the leading nations of early ambient music with pioneering artists such as Alio Die, Oöphoi, Sigilium S, and Franca Sacchi.
I discovered the sound production of Demetrio Cecchitelli with the excellent brooding, drone-infused and emotionally moving ambient album Impetus (Midira, 2022). First published as ultra limited K7 edition, Jump is an intricate and deeply meditative effort which blend layers of synth sequences, vaporous and aerial with meandering e-guitar chords. It clearly suggests infinite spaces and moments of stillness through immersive heavily reverbed motifs blooming in deep quietness. A refined and subtle microtonal ambient work with alluring and playful instants of beauty and floating glimmers. Recommended for those who enjoy impressionist soundscapes and soothing cinematic music for the ears from The Green Kingdom, Will Bolton, Anthené, Chihei Hatakeyama, Francis Gri, and Yellow6.
Jump is available on Dronarivm. [Bandcamp]
