Alberto Boccardi - Apnea [Room40 Promo]

Another fresh album released via the Australian label Room40 on July 19th, 2k24 is "Apnea", the latest album outing by Italian composer x producer Alberto Boccardi who's serving a total of nine new pieces over the course of 26 minutes total playtime, all recorded over a period of three years and heavily influenced by parenthood and the birth of his second daughter, exploring a soft and calm sonic spectrum set somewhere between classic Ambient x Deep Listening Music and minimalist Electronica, oftentimes garnished with chiming tones reminiscent of childrens music box toys, partly backed by rumbling, earth shaking and almost tectonic bass pulses with "Apnea III" even evoking memories of long lost Classical Music pieces written for spinet or cembalo whilst "Struttura Cristallina, Ordinamento, Densita" dives into minimalist Ambient Electronics with what seem to be tribal chants buried deep within its overall mixdown and "Sessantacinque" even serves comforting, organic and slightly twangy guitar tones atop of calm low end movements just to name a few. Defo one to check out for the dedciated Ambient collectors out there.
