Andrea Ferraris & Matteo Uggeri - Autumn Is Coming, We're All In Slow Motion

From the ever so vibrant music scene of Italy (or  so it seems from the outside) two musicians with a background in experimental (and) ambient music, Andrea Ferraris and Matteo Uggeri, who receive help from Mujika Easel and Andrea Serrapiglio. The cover lists extensively the various sound sources. Lots of field recordings and electronics (Uggeri), but what can be noticed here is that the acoustic instruments, mainly the guitar (played by Ferraris) but also cello (Serrapiglio) and piano (Easel) play an important, if not crucial role. Like the title suggests, the music seems to be in slow motion. To me the whole thing sounds played like a few nice afternoons of improvisation. ‘Let’s sit together and play a few sounds from the computer and add some instruments’. In the subsequent mix this intimacy is saved, which is a great thing, I’d say. A not too difficult album with elegant ambient pieces, lots of acoustic instruments and an overall laidback atmosphere. Excellent dream music with a nice edge.
