Moonlogue are an Italian, Turin-based band which include Lorenzo Riccardino, Mattia Calcatelli (both members of Gloom), Federico Mao (Karin And The Ugly Barnacles) and Edoardo Campo. The project was born from the need to explore new ways to give the shape to the sound, beyond the standards of the song-form.
Their music is inspired by suggestions that came from astronomy and by artists as Battles, Calibro 35, Darkside, Mogwai and Public Service Broadcasting. The energy of the acoustic instruments meet the intensity and the elegance of the electronic lines. Sail Under Nadìr is their debut album which was released in 2020.
Now they are back with a remix of the first single “Estéban“. It is curated by Italian artist Davide Nudo. “Considering the impossibility of performing live, in addition to continuing the writing of the songs for the next album, we have proposed to different people we respect to work on a remix among the songs of our first album. Then, We would like to collect them in the form of a digital EP.” the band explain.
They add about the original track “Our single Estéban isn’t only our first release, but it’s also the first song we wrote together. It’s the song which made us better know each other from a musical perspective, it’s been the beginning of the path we chose to follow. We composed it trying to include all our different tastes and influences. Estéban means to us the starting point of a journey, it’s a blast-off.
We named this song after a fictitious guy called Estéban who has a very strong curiosity. The very same curiosity which makes him venture to get involved in life, looking for an unknown future with different prospects, maybe brighter.”
