Brazilian Recovery Time

Review on Sol29 - by Stefano Fasti



Here is the review published on Wonderous Stories by Stefano Fasti respect of the first album the nosound:

A few months away from ' promotional EP that sanctioned the move towards more visibility, the project nosound comes out with what is actually his first album. Under the cryptic title of Sol29 are summoned, as well as pieces that are part of the EP mentioned, a series of compositions of brooding nature, breath deep and in tune with the affinity of psychedelic-ambient composer Giancarlo Erra. The value "ambient" by nosound did not, however, aims to paint a landscape timidly: The tones are warm and intense and the work is drawn in the plots sound and the result of a long commitment to writing. A key episode turns out to be, since the first listen, the instrumental The Moment She Knew (followed by tail Waves of time). One of the best songs on the album però, secondo i gusti di chi scrive, Overloaded, una ballad malinconica che prende avvio sotto un anelito di Mellotron e si sviluppa con la chitarra acustica a sorreggere un canto delicato e sospeso, con un climax centrale, degno della conclusione di Entangled dei Genesis: da stringere il cuore. Idle end avevamo già avuto modo di apprezzarla sull'EP dello scorso anno, ma ancora oggi non smette di trasmetterci emozioni specialmente nel fluido ed etereo assolo di chitarra, così come anche Hope for the future, che dopo tanta bellezza pare voler pacificare l'anima. La title-track ci porta poi, nel finale, in un limbo fatto di una luce abbacinante e completamente avvolgente, con riverberi non dissimili dalle luminosità di David Sylvian (vedi Darkest dreaming). Who loves the atmosphere of Porcupine Tree and dilated more subdued, and is therefore able to better appreciate the No-man, and in general those who, by abstraction, by Pink Floyd as the interludes of love and connection of the digressions that do not sound the long and bombastic guitar solos, then this disc will find a place to lie down to fly (away) his imagination.
