NOSOUND - Sol29 -bonus Tr- (2LP)

Started as a one-man studio project in 2005 by multi-instrumentalist Giancarlo Erra before evolving then into a full band, Nosound inventively combines influences from '70s psychedelia, '80s/'90s ambient, soundtracks, contemporary alternative and post-rock. The music is evocative and intense with personal songwriting and uses a variety of vintage and modern electronic instruments. Influences range from Pink Floyd to Brian Eno, from Radiohead to Sigur Ros, passing through rock and electronic music. Following the release of the band's new minimal sound on their latest release, æAllow YourselfÆ, Giancarlo Erra is remastering and reissuing past albums on Kscope, now including their debut album æSol29Æ. Perhaps the best album to listen to directly following the new 2018 material, æSol29Æ was conceived solely by Erra and its subtlety and serenity laid the foundations for what Nosound are making now. This edition of æSol29Æ sees the album's first ever release on vinyl, using a new remaster from the original audio, and is presented as a double LP in gatefold packaging complete with the original 2005 artwork. Nosound are currently promoting their new album Allow Yourself, which included a performance at Kscope's 10th-anniversary party in London, as well as an upcoming album launch party in Rome along with Anathema's Vincent Cavanagh and currently two festival dates in the Netherlands - Crosslands and Prognosis.
