ThalamusProject

The thalamus is a part of the brain that relays human perceptions to the human consciousness. The anatomical name is derived from the ancient Greek word θάλαμος, which is frequently translated as "gateway to consciousness". The music of the ThalamusProject directly relates to this picture: acoustic textures are used as a canvas to depict the interplay of objectivity and subjectivity. The soundscape is mainly created around an acoustic guitar (O Glassl, DE) and a drum set (M Savo, IT). Together with various other instruments and a loop-machine, multilayered arrangements are constructed while exploring a wide range of musical genres: from American folk to jazz, from world music to psychedelic sounds.
