"His gift for picture music is the common thread running through it, his earlier works sounding more like soundtrack music and his later works moving into more ambient realms, though still with a strong sense of imagery" Phil Derby - Editor & Publisher Electroambient Space
With this release (as well as his previous effort, the overlooked and brilliant
InTRO) Bruno Sanfilippo clearly stands apart from many other ambient artists recording
today. Frankly, I'm in awe of his unique musical vision and the singular direction
his music is taking in these last two recordings. Whether or not ambient music
fans can appreciate Piano Textures, I personally think this is an amazing piece
of work and consider it one of the finest albums so far this year and staggeringly
original in overall concept and execution.
My highest recommendation. by Bill Binkelman [New Age Reporter] 2007
Dreamlike and emotive, by turns both very beautiful and very sad,
"Piano Textures" is a wonderful disc that showcases Sanfilippo's talents
and skills.
A truly wonderful work to become acquainted with this very talented performer.

Your style ranges nicely between the textural and the melodic, and I think your
use of organic and acoustic (at least sampled) elements is very tasteful.
Robert Rich
A superb dose of ambience whose power is understated but vibrant, evoking a
series of entries into the inner mind. Matt Howarth [Sonic Curiosity]
Bruno Sanfilippo has been a musician & producer since 1991.
He was born in Buenos Aires [1965] later and moved to Barcelona [2000]. Bruno became a Music Professor in the Galvani Conservatory in 1988 and founder of the label ad21music ten years later.
Through his contemplative music the intention is to transmit something other than emotional
stimulus or simple entertainment. It obsesses itself with a search through different things -
the amazing, the magical and the deep.
In dreams, there’s no imagined thing that’s too absurd, too strange - Bruno Sanfilippo's music comes from that inexhaustible and shameless source.
Bruno Sanfilippo es músico y productor desde 1991. Nacido en Buenos Aires [1965] y residente en Barcelona [2000]. Es fundador
de ad21music [1998]. Con su música contemplativa intenta transmitir al
oyente de un modo más profundo al estímulo emocional o simple
entretenimiento. Le obsesiona la búsqueda de lo distinto, lo sorprendente,
lo mágico, y lo profundo.
En los sueños no hay cosa imaginada demasiado absurda o demasiado rara,
su música proviene de esa fuente onírica inagotable y descarada.
"Su rasgo musical principal es su invocación a las imágenes.
Sus primeros trabajos se acercan más a la música cinematográfica,
en cambio los posteriores se mueven a través de los reinos de la música
ambiental, aunque con un fuerte sentido visual"
