S A R R A M

6 mai 2019

Café Central 14, Rue Borgval - 1000 Bruxelles

S A R R A M is the solo project of the sardinian Valerio Marras which combines elements of doom, drone, ambient, postrock.
 
The debut album "A Bolu, in C" (Talk About Records, 2017) of this ambient musician coming from Nuoro is composed by a one side - everlasting track - of 37 minutes all played by one guitar that improvises an harmonic journey moving through the exploration of different scales, surrounded by an electric, ethereal drone soundscape. 
 
“Four Movements Of A Shade” (Midira Records,2018) is the second album by S A R R A M. It features four haunting tracks, that move through different genres like drone, ambient, doom and somehow minimal post-rock, played with just a guitar and some synths. The result was turned out as a very dark and intense soundjourney.  

Also guitar player of the postrock-oriented trio Thank U For Smoking and the postmetal quartet Charun - both active in the european instrumental scene - Valerio Marras played all over Europe, sharing the stage - among the others - with Killing Joke, Scott Kelly (Neurosis), The Dillinger Escape Plan, Russian Circles, This Will Destroy You, Alessandro Cortini (Nine Inch Nails) just to name a few, including appearances at festivals such as Whoneedslyrics?! in Slovakia, Karel Music Expo in Italy, Spazio musica project in Cagliari (K.Stockhausen, I. Xenakis, T. Riley), Miniere Sonore, The Academy of Fine Arts in Munchen,  collaborations with MAN museum and Ciusa Museum in Nuoro.

"As a whole, this is a real trip to listen to from end to end."  TONESHIFT.net
