Vostok - Lo Spazio Dell'Assenza flac mp3 download

Even if it is not always according to my taste, and the selected instruments take getting used to, I will dive today in the Chanson, Smooth Jazz, Folk and Acoustic genre. My decision to write this review is solely based on the dazzling voice by the singer Mina Carlucci. The featured Debut album, which has been released on their own label last month, was uploaded on vostok-project @bandcamp.com as well by the artists, to listen and download. A indeed light and atmospheric album. Perhaps that's why the band name "Vostok" was chosen. The first rocket that ventured into space and took Juri Gagarin with it bears that name, and was inspiration for the artwork as well."Vostok" is the project by Mina Carlucci (vocals) and Giuseppe Argentiero (Acoustic/Classical Guitar). They hail from Italy (Apulia). Very subtle songs like "Le néant scintillant" (The sparkling void) or "Lacryma" are sung either in Italian or French. The best pieces are "Come marea" and "Bonjour tristesse", where the Sax is not present, or is just in the background, plus the drum kit is not in use. Maybe one should rely on different instruments, I mean guest musicians. Instead of using a standard rock drum set: percussions and a second guitar player for rhythm guitar. The sax and the vocals interpret the melody at the same time, which smothers her voice literally. Her stunning gentle vocal timbre and at the same time powerful organ deserves better. There is nothing to say against violins and piano though.The tags used by the artist themselves prove futile: acoustic darkwave ethereal jazz neoclassical neofolk. I would subtract darkwave, ethereal, neoclassical and neofolk immediately, and would rather suggest the ones mentioned above. Folk, Smooth Jazz, Acoustic and Chanson would fit better. If they get rid of the saxophone it would become more folky, what would pave an alternative way for them.In spite of the expressed limitations in their debut, "Lo spazio dell'assenza" should not be missed.Fenris W.http://wolfhall.org/shtml/mu_re.shtml#vost
