Experimental, transversal, contaminated, psychedelic. Following the roads opened up by the last electric Miles Davis and with a desire to push the envelope without fear of treading untrodden paths and depicting delicate sonic hallucinations. Carlo Spera with his wide-ranging crossover tries to take the best of jazz, psychedelia, classical music and industrial cyberpunk, trespassing at times into the sweet melodies of auteur canzone, at times into more rhythmic rock, often fusing jazz elegance with techno tribalism.
