On recently shared single “The Wake,” electronic music composer and producer Gianfranco Pescetti taps into themes exploring “nostalgia, loss, renewal and hope.” It comes ahead of the release of his new album, due out in the fall.
The ambient and dreamy instrumental taps into something rather hypnotic and cinematic, like a venture into a lost dream that you just can’t shake. Or even the best Adult Swim theme song that you have not heard yet. The track is based within elements of electronica, but features indie rock and proggy bits of instrumentation, that all add up to something best served during a late-night listen.
Or as he puts it:
“In writing “The Wake,” I sought out to create an instrumental piece that explores the theme of melancholy for a time past, death, and new beginnings. The title has a dual meaning, referring to both the practice of mourning and the path left behind by a boat, a symbol of movement and progress.”
