Gino Fioravanti\u2019s\u00a0Aglaia\u00a0has released 66 solo and collaborative releases over the past 20 years; his work with compatriot Alio\u00a0Die brought him to Projekt\u2019s attention.\u00a0<B>Perennial source<\/B>\u00a0is an engaging collection of\u00a0introspective\u00a0stringed-instrument textures and\u00a0electronic drifts which align with Projekt\u2019s growing selection of releases from Italian ambient\u00a0composers.<\/p>\n<p><BR>&#8220;Music actually becomes meditative,\u201d\u00a0Gino\u00a0reflects, &#8220;when the ancient codes of inner wisdom are inserted into the work. It doesn&#8217;t have to\u00a0be intrusive, not too emotional, not too dark, not too varied but not excessively monotonous. Not too interesting either! This is a very special\u00a0album for me because, unlike all my others, I decided to include elements that are very close to the tonalities and\u00a0tactilities\u00a0of stringed acoustic instruments. I\u00a0included some melodic themes for the first time \u2014 barely mentioned but constantly present.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><BR>He continues,\u00a0\u201cThat said,\u00a0meditative music can only really be described by subtraction.\u00a0I was able to realize an ancient teaching: there are\u00a0two aspects of Brahman, the corporeal and the incorporeal, the mortal and the immortal. Music composed of two parts \u2014 definite and\u00a0indefinite. I usually use few overdubs when recording, but this time I worked in multitrack to create\u00a0a multidimensional\u00a0zone\u00a0with\u00a0perspectives. Vanishing points. Focal elements. I played, as the ancient tantric and mantric\u00a0traditions suggest, listening to the end of each note, the importance of hearing and following what remains at the end of the\u00a0sound. In\u00a0playing I gave importance to the moment when it\u00a0ends. I remained listening within the space between notes. It was from that point forward\u00a0that I decided when the next\u00a0sound\u00a0would emerge. In this way everything\u00a0flows naturally and necessarily from its original source: silence.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><BR>\u201cThe disappearance of the syllable OM is like the reverberation of a gong that fades into silence. Whoever reaches the level of Brahman\u00a0awareness realizes the\u00a0sound\u00a0of OM in transcendental silence.\u201c &#8211;\u00a0Amritabindu Upanishad<\/p>\n<p><BR><B>Perennial source<\/B>\u00a0is a marvelous album of meditative, relaxing atmospheres. An album with subtlety, mystery, depth, warmth, and a timeless organic consistency.<\/p>\n<p><BR><U>Artist Bio <\/U><\/p>\n<p><BR>Gino says, &#8220;When I was a teenager I composed more dramatic and romantic music, but over time I chose an\u00a0aerial music\u00a0\u2014 that is music reminiscent of the motions of the air. Light without heavy emotions. Nothing that captures. These are vibrations that transport consciousness into a free space. Music of the air. Now in my early 60s, I have been teaching\u00a0yoga and meditation and body-oriented\u00a0techniques for 35 years. When creating,\u00a0I want my music to be warm\u00a0electronics with\u00a0a warm breath that extends into space.\u00a0A music that does not offer scenarios but perspectives.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3>Projekt release: December 2, 2022<\/h3>\n<div class=\"socials\"><h2>love it, share it<\/h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.projekt.com%2Fstore%2Fproduct%2Farc00260%2F&t=Aglaia%3A+Perennial+source+%28digital%29\" class=\"socials-small facebook-small\"  target=\"_blank\" title=\"Facebook\" >facebook<\/a>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/share?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.projekt.com%2Fstore%2Fproduct%2Farc00260%2F&text=Aglaia%3A+Perennial+source+%28digital%29\" class=\"socials-small twitter-small\"  target=\"_blank\" title=\"Twitter\" >twitter<\/a>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/pinterest.com\/pin\/create\/button\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.projekt.com%2Fstore%2Fproduct%2Farc00260%2F&media=https:\/\/www.projekt.com\/store\/wp-content\/uploads\/ARC00260.jpg&description=+%0D%0A+%0D%0A\" class=\"socials-small pinterest-small\"  onclick=\"window.open(this.href); return false;\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Pinterest\" >pinterest<\/a>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/plus.google.com\/share?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.projekt.com%2Fstore%2Fproduct%2Farc00260%2F&title=Aglaia%3A+Perennial+source+%28digital%29\" class=\"socials-small google-small\"  target=\"_blank\" title=\"Google\" >google<\/a>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\n<a href=https:\/\/projektrecords.bandcamp.com\/album\/aglaia-perennial-source TARGET=BLANK><IMG SRC=\/store\/assets\/images\/Button-Bandcamp.png width=129><\/a> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":26178,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[940,54,50,556,149],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-26177","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-aglaia","product_cat-all","product_cat-ambient","product_cat-digital","product_cat-drone","first","instock","taxable","shipping-taxable","product-type-simple","border"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.projekt.com\/store\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/26177","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.projekt.com\/store\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.projekt.com\/store\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.projekt.com\/store\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=26177"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.projekt.com\/store\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/26178"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.projekt.com\/store\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26177"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.projekt.com\/store\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=26177"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.projekt.com\/store\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=26177"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.projekt.com\/store\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=26177"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
