MOONBOUND is Fabio Trentini’s solo project, and a real labour of love.
It's a kind of private planet where the nostalgic sounds he hears in his head and heart can freely become reality and find complete expression.
It's also a place where many of Fabio's good friends and favourite colleagues can have their say, lending their talented hands to help complete the picture, utterly free from external pressure.
THE ALBUM
CONFESSION AND RELEASE is MOONBOUND's first LP.
It was developed and recorded between October 2005 and April 2007 in many different studios in the EU and the US.
CONFESSION AND RELEASE is a mixture of irredeemably romantic colours and atmospheres, somewhere between pop, rock and progressive, that combines selected retro elements with new sounds.
The record has been released in the USA in June, 2008.
A new Moonbound LP is in the pipeline (scheduled for release in winter 2009/2010).
REVIEWS
»...Multi-talented multi-instrumentalist Fabio trentini layers a ton of great 6- and 12- string textures onto these 12 tracks. The tunes are smart straight rock out of the Phil Collins-era Genesis bag, and the 5/4 opener Nina is worth the price of admission...«
Guitar Player, september 2008
»...Trentini’s commanding and prolific vocalizations are also quite endearing. Think of YES’ Jon Anderson with a distinct edge, for example... A job well-done, yet not over-cooked or superfluous. This little gem deserves some widespread recognition and is the antithesis to the ho hum pop-rock that has been consuming the airwaves spanning the past decade or so...«
Glenn Astarita - JazzReview.com
»...For anyone who wants ear candy that thankfully, is devoid of the melodramatic & atmospheric neo-prog, take heart to Confession and Release, for the sweet tooth for sophisticated pop melodies are executed with enigmatic precision. A project of Italian composer/multi-instrumentalist/producer Fabio Trentini, Moonbound is an expressive musical force filled with fluid tunes, catchy melodies, and a technical edge.... Confession and Release is a unique collection of songs, and I did say ‘songs,’ that offer up intriguing intellect on the more thoughtful side of the singer/songwriter mantra...«
Tommy Hash - Ytsejam.com
»...The songwriting is very strong, the melodies are infectious, the vocal performance is seductive, the musical performances are impeccable, and the overall impact is impressive. This is a testament to Trentini’s strength of vision as a producer/band leader as this project was no-doubt created over many years, various countries, and various studios...The production is slick and clean, all the better to hear every single beautiful nuance in the retro-modern style/mix. It all combines for a truly satisfying listening experience...«
