David Fungi, from Varese, Italy, is clearly inspired by nature. Field recordings pop up from the initial sounds of \u201caal_sentieri\u201d, blended with synthetic and metallic electronic sounds which produce the kind of ambience one might recognize from William Basinski. It is this razor edge that defines the strong personality of this recording. Even though \u201cAal_sentieri\u201d is ambient music, it is also restless, menacing, provokes the listener and gives him a sense of travelling through a mysterious and dark forest. As the piece unfolds through its 23 minutes, the sound layering becomes more complex, while one can only guess the origin of the animal noises underneath. When the path comes to an end, a climax appears in the last 4 minutes, first with a burst of industrial noise and finally an orchestral and cinematic climax, finishing the track. \u201caal_sentieri\u201d leaves the listener in the company of silence, which in a strange kind of way almost works as a reverberation of the track.\u00a0 It is not easy to capture one’s imagination like this, but David Fungi has that skill to mix disparate sounds in a coherent manner, making \u201caal_sentieri\u201d a fine and peculiar release.\u00bb
