Album Arworkt: ”NALENT” by Sandro Glavina.
Natural Alien Entities is their 38th album and apparently, looking at the cover in which Franco and Sandro appear with extraterrestrial features, one might think of a playful and self-deprecating approach (aliens or alienated?). In part it is, but when you listen to the tracks, you realize that the music has a good depth and there is no lack of elements of sound research and experimentation that has always distinguished the Frasan Galaglav. Many musical genres mixed together characterize the songs on the album in line with MITS policy. Cosmic Music, Contemporary, Mystic, Psychedelic, Gothic, Jazz, Chill Out, Lounge, Space Music, Ethno Music, Funk, Ambient, Synth Pop. The ethnic solfeggio appears almost mystical in nature in “Canto della perduta stella”, the tension is high in “Dark Point” and the following pieces have their own spatial charm. Fluid is the approach in "Density 1022". In the tracks there are many self-produced sounds, not only using VSTi, but also using real instruments. (as in "Green Fire Comet"). – Eventi Jazz Newsletter 10/2021
Natural Alien Entities è il loro 38° album ed in apparenza, guardando la copertina in cui compaiono Franco e Sandro con sembianze extraterrestri, si potrebbe pensare ad un approccio scherzoso ed autoironico (alieni o alienati?). In parte lo è, ma quando si ascoltano le tracce, ci si accorge che la musica ha un buon spessore e non mancano gli elementi di ricerca sonora e la sperimentazione che da sempre contraddistingue i Frasan Galaglav. Molti generi musicali tra loro mixati caratterizzano i brani dell’album in linea con la politica MITS. Cosmic Music, Contemporary, Mystic, Psychedelic, Gothic, Jazz, Chill Out, Lounge, Space Music, Ethno Music, Funk, Ambient, Synth Pop. Quasi di natura mistica appare il solfeggio etnico in “Canto della perduta stella”, elevata è la tensione in “Dark Point” ed i successivi brani hanno il loro fascino spaziale. Fluido è l’approccio in “Density 1022”. Moltissimi sono i suoni autoprodotti, non solo impiegando VSTi, ma anche utilizzando strumenti reali. (come in “Green Fire Comet”).
