Press Info:
Our next release is coming closer !

We know that music might not be a crucial stake nowadays, and promoting new material might seem inappropriate, regarding the global breakdown we’re going through. Yet, we truly believe in the soothing virtues of the record we are about to release. This forthcoming LP is a soulful work stemming from the generous mind of Guido Camino, under the name Forest On Stasys. He is inspired by the spiritual aspects of tribal rites and the physical effects of soundscapes.

In a few seconds, the introduction takes you from the anonymous murmuring of a standard concourse hall to the distant source of a primitive silence : surrounded by voices, footsteps and public announcements, you fall in a crack and immediately find an inner balance. Soon you’re drowning in a vast melancholy, lulled by roaring pads and crackling chirps, rubbing notes and delayed artifacts.

Guido Camino’s expressive style makes Forest On Stasys a meaningful name : this album is significantly built like an immersion into the rival forces of a wild realm where the tension between growth and gravity finds its resolution in the reunion of light and shadow. All along the tracks, obscure volumes with glistening edges remind of daylight spawning through the trunks.

Immersed in these mighty bass pads outlined by distorted howls, you’re caught in a massive grid of organic forces. This ride will make you throb like an ancestral tree, stirred by radiant whirlwinds, amazed by the translucent oscillations of life cycles.

At some point of the journey, you will board for some astral explorations, as the synth waves become epic and sound like memories of an ancient space travel.

The last part of the record takes a vividly melodic direction, with floating arpeggios and sparkling chords, inviting you to land in a safe part of your soul, calm and relieved.
