Influences
Sounds Like
The Wire: ...small vistas of delightful otherness
Blow Up: ...rare and precious
Willamette Week: ...disorienting collages that envelope yr head like either a prisoner's black hood or an angel's gauzy veil
Brainwashed: ...mesmerazing
Tiny Mix Tapes: ...the kind of music that you imagine in your head, but never quite find materialized in the real world
Pitchfork Media: ...distorted protuberances
Boomkat: ...everything's going to be alright
Musique Machine: ...like death smiling through a beautiful face at you
Filth Forge: ...from intimate and experimental ballads to a monumental symphonic assault
SentireAscoltare: ... a work of perfect balance. Highly evocative and introspective, thanks to an almost hallucinatory visionary power; a true dive into a deep and alien subterranean world
Rumore: ...the weirdest and most magical of the orchestras. It's like peeping out of a window in Doctor Caligari's cabinet
The Stranger: ...an enamored child trying to describe her first glimpse into her future as a fabulous whore
Stereo Subversion: ...dramatic, esoteric theatre for the disenfranchised lonely surging upon cultural fringes. Music outside the bland boundaries of American indie rock
Heathen Harvest: ...something very big, bright and otherworldly, as if the songs exist in a different time and place, a different dimension even
Il Giornale della Musica: ...a mysterious light in between waves and debris of notes and their psychedelic, almost cosmic, trails
Aquarius: ...well done, sir.

Grazie mille per la request. Ti ho apprezzato moltissimo al PRE, grande "Stoo Kuinnutu" con il carissimo Tomasini. Ero fiero di canticchiarla! In generale, un'esperienza che ricorderò sempre. Ora sto ascoltando Landscape #2 a palla. Luigi
Sala B is a musical project inspired by a recent near-death experience I had consisting of several weeks in intensive care, two operations and thirty months of therapy. The doctors and physicians all considered my condition terminal and have said that is a miracle that I survived.
Sala B is divided into three segments published individually on EPs, each symbolizing the three majors aspects of the experience.
Rupture is the first of the three representing the events leading up to my arrival in the hospital emergency room.
