Editorial Reviews

From audience-inspired idea-kernel to diamond-in-the-rough demo, before flaming into a fully realised floor-combustor is a typically extensive process. It's also one that for reasons numerous is regularly hidden from end-user view. Giuseppe however sees such matters in a more progressive manner. Through 'Evolver' - his July-released fourth artist album, he's sought to remove the producer/audience fourth wall down to its last brick. To me bringing the audience into the music making equation makes a great deal of sense. Short of having the ability to make music in the first place, harnessed right, it can be the artist's greatest asset. No one is going to give you clearer notes, better pointers or more honest feedback on your music than an audience member, working synchronously with a thousand others. And obviously, at the same time, they're the ones you have to get it right for! This reciprocal reaction is something that Giuseppe's been exploring for as long as his self-built G.O. Live 2.0 in-club set-up has allowed. 'Evolver' however is his massively expanded effort to successfully turn that dynamic into a fully realised 17-track album. (Or 18, counting its included full-length album rendition mix). So, broad strokes, here's how 'Evolver's evolution works... The essence of each one of the album's cuts was - in one way or another - born out of Ottaviani keyboard or hardware jamming at a show. As a DJ reads the floor, if a musician's melody strikes a chord, you can see it right away, he says. Then, in real time, they can develop it - getting instantaneous feedback on their on-the-fly modulations. If it's hitting, you bring it back and develop it at the next show, and the next and the next, until your confidence in it is absolute. Then it goes into the studio, you turn on the cameras and stream live as you roll that fabric out into a fully formed track.

    He knows trance and he has been refining these songs for awhile. Excellent. The digital download comes with a club mix version in addition to the solo album - meaning the mixes have songs seamlessly weave into each other. He continues with his work of excellence. This is a good one to have as an audiophile.

    Words can't begin to explain how great this album is. Heard many of these tracks on dancefloors all over the world during Giuseppe's Live 2.0 shows - even better now that I can listen to them whenever I want *insert hands-in-the-air emoji*

    Giuseppe you've out done yourself... again! If this had been on vinyl I would have worn out a Shure V15 cartridge playing these songs so many times.

    Went on a road trip and let this CD play two times through before I swapped it out.

    Ich habe dieses außergewöhnlich gute Album vor knapp einem Jahr im ersten Corona-Lockdown während einer ausgedehnten Homeoffice-Phase gekauft. Ich weiß nicht, wie viele Mal ich es seitdem gehört habe, aber es was *sehr* oft. Die 5 Sterne sind sowas von gerechtfertigt.

    Tipp: es existiert eine Download-Variante, in der die Extended-Versionen aller 17 Tracks enthalten sind. Diese sind im Gegensatz zu diesem Album ohne gemixte Übergänge
