Amitabha by ALIO DIE & AGLAIA
Alio Die and Aglaia, in their collaborations, manage to create the union between land and air.
The suspended flights of Aglaia always find mysterious lands on which to glide (Monte analogo).
In this album when Alio Die suggests ancient motifs Aglaia transports them close to pure electronic flows (Celestial stream). Some traces (New form of elementals, The first step depends on the last) are so enchanted that they can not be placed anywhere else, only between past and future, in a present exclusively contained by the transcendent sound ritual, a key-sound, strongly desired and present in the space of this new album.

Since the late 80s, Stefano Musso has recorded deep, evocative experimental ambient & electro-acoustic soundscapes under the name Alio Die.
His music is a shadowy, cavernous, intensely detailed fusion of acoustical elements, step-and-repeat sample treatments, sparse, echoing percussion, and deep, atmospheric sound design, textural passages..by the music's vague, entropic formlessness.
