NOSTOI by Luca Bevacqua

Following the outstanding releases by Robert Logan and Vanadium, where we were treated to exquisite melodies and compositions of the highest caliber, we felt the need to once again venture into more daring territory. We had been missing that experimental and abstract edge that challenges perception, surprises us through its treatment of sound, and embraces bold, unexpected structures.

Luca Bevacqua answers that call with Nostoi, an album that moves between musique concrète, experimental abstraction, and digital glitch. Here, sound is fragmented into tiny impulses, sequenced through seemingly chaotic structures and accompanied by atonal melodies that immerse us in the artist’s intimate universe. It is a work that separates us from routine reality, often gray and repetitive, and opens a space for sonic and sensory exploration.

In Nostoi, there are no immediate melodic hooks or comforting formulas. Instead, we encounter an invitation to a different kind of listening, more open, more attentive, more willing to get lost. The tension created by its constant departure from traditional compositional conventions produces a distinct, almost physical experience, where every texture and every silence carries weight. It is a journey into territories not yet fully mapped.

Admittedly, it can sometimes be easy to feel disoriented, to question what you are hearing. Yet that is precisely where the strength of this work lies. Nostoi demands active participation from the listener, a willingness to surrender to the experience and discover what emotions surface while moving through these sonic landscapes. This is music that does not impose; it proposes. It does not provide answers; it opens doors.

An album that will undoubtedly resonate with the most adventurous and discerning listeners. We can only applaud and congratulate Luca Bevacqua for this bold journey into the unexplored.

Thank you, Luca.
