Have you ever find yourself thinking that sometimes neither a good pair of headphones, nor a very good sound system are quite enough to wholly relish certain tracks? When I stumble across compositions so detailed and masterfully crafted such as this new Kizer album, I feel the need to experience those vibes with all my body. Try to think about…

If the scarcity that surrounds the world of NFTs is not congenial to you, then I advise you never to enter the realm of wave and vaporwave cassettes. That is a true rumble, a fight to the death to grab one of the few copies that are put on sale. It’s a serious business, so much so that, even though…

One of the things that I love the most about doing music reviews is that I constantly learn new things while writing them. Most of the time I create a draft on WordPress, I write the first lines, and then I inevitably get lost in the maze of the web looking for anecdotes, music charts, production tutorials, documentaries, and so…

Not infrequently I find myself thinking how cool it would be to have soundtracks designed specifically for books. Not just background music, but something tailor-made for what you’re actually reading.

Here we are! After the first part dedicated to the exploration of the roots and origins of wave, we’re about to continue our journey with our eyes stuck to the present and, above all, to the bright future of this genre and its culture. The pandemic dealt a bad blow to the entire music scene, but thanks to its digital…

It’s officially another quarantine Sunday morning, however this time I’m going to kicking off my weekend in a slightly different way. Brioches and cappuccino obviously cannot be missed on my table, but today there’s more on the menù. Something hot, tasty, highly energy-giving. I’m talking of nothing less than the latest REAPER effort, a true bomb under the form of…

I still can’t believe I’m really doing this. Premiering a Klasey Jones track was something I thought was only possible in my dreams and yet, here I am. The excitement is palpable here in my room right now, my palms are sweaty while I hit the keyboard, but let’s go step by step. This story (yes, because it’s a story…

I’ll be straight honest with you guys. There’s not much to write in this review. All I can do is to bring this song to your attention. It does the rest on its own. It’s perfection, it’s magnificence, its power speaks loud and clear without the need of harbingers. Moore Kismet has done extraordinary things so far but ‘Rumor’, the…
