Greetings to all my devoted readers and music fans, let’s welcome Italian artist Giuseppe Bonaccorso. On 1st September, he released a single titled “L’Ombra della Terra”. Join me as I talk more about it.

This song opens with a sand-sifting sound that has a dark and dramatic feel to it. This intro lets you know that choosing to listen to this song was no mistake.

Let’s talk about the theme of the song. The title of the song means the shadow of the earth. You might not understand the poetic performance, but the timing and the pace of the song let you know that this is not a mere joke.

When it comes to production, there is so much to discuss. His primary goal is to create contemporary progressive music that can break free from the constraints imposed by popular culture and begin exploring complex musical structures based on various instruments (including guitars, strings, woodwinds, percussion, synth, and so on). The song “L’Ombra della Terra” in particular portrays a man’s inner journey, beginning with his observation of reality and progressing to absolute emancipation. Each part of the song has a precise rise to a climax and then an artistic fall to a low hum that scratched my brain in a very satisfying way. The guitar charges against each other in a complete unification that is very addictive and captivating. I didn’t understand the language, but somehow, I did understand. The song came together in a way that is completely new to me and frankly, very refreshing.

Giuseppe Bonaccorso, a composer, musician, and poet, is closely associated with atonal, avant-garde, and highly experimental music. As a counter-cultural artist, he creates his music using creative compositional procedures that are never associated with mainstream society. Giuseppe Bonaccorso focuses on experimental music (acoustic and electronic), progressive music, electronic music, film compositions, and modern classical guitar. He spent years working in Rome and Berlin before moving to Sicily, where he established his “creative sanctuary.”

Well, well, well, this song was such a rush that it made my skin tingle and my ears very happy. You can tell how talented he is by now; he has fused all these sounds and given one hell of a poetic song. I am excited to work with Giuseppe long-term, and I cannot wait to hear more of his music.
