Oöphoi

Oöphoi is the pseudonym of Gianluigi Gasparetti.
Born in Rome, Italy, March 26, 1958. He started his own music experiments in 1995, with a basic instrumentation, trying to explore the shores of deep space-ambient music.
His first album "Three Lights at the End of the World", composed in 1995, has been released in 1996.
In 2002 he has founded the experimental ambient group Nebula, along with Klaus Wiese, Mauro Malgrande, Lorenzo Pierobon and Tau Ceti. He has released 20+ Cds for many international labels (Hic Sunt Leones, Amplexus, Hypnos, Nextera, Prikosnovenie, Electroshock Records, Skean Dhu, Stella Maris, Aplaus, Mystery Sea, Glacial Movements), and now he runs his own label Umbra, devoted to the music of new Italian ambient artists.

Oöphoi + Tau Ceti - Celestial Geometries 2

Artist: Oöphoi & Tau Ceti
P: 2001 / 2012
Part two of the re-mastered reissue of Oophoi and Tau Ceti's classic double album from 2001 / 2006. An enigmatic and deep work of slow dynamics, ceremonial intensity and methodical pacing. Synth pads grow, thicken and gentley shift, a creature calls from the distance through a mist of reverb and echo, harmonics alternately become dense then fall away to a shiny smooth ribbon of sound......

Oöphoi - An Aerial View

Artist: Oöphoi
P: 2008
LTD 750

"When I've been asked to describe the Ice Age with an uninterrupted drone, I knew I wanted to avoid the cliches of the genre: dark rumblings, massive low frequencies, cold atmospheres. I had to describe with sounds the white landscape, the blinding light reflected by the frozen oceans, the abyssal silence.I have imagined myself in flight over this Sleeping Earth, a solitary winged-being surrounded by winds, air, water and ice. This led me to compose an airy drone with minimal variations and delicate tones, an hommage to a pure, incontaminated and remote land."

Oophoi, january 2008

This music is written for theremin and synths.

Oöphoi - Hymns To A Silent Sky

Artist: Oöphoi
P: 2005
An album of epic, deep, evocative space music that stretches out in front of you in its own infinite universe of sounds. The music is deeply connected with the mysteries of the sky: clouds moving slowly, delicate and dramatic colors merging together beyond the horizon line, winds carrying voices and sounds from distant times. A remarkable work full of poetry.
Music composed and recorded in The Kiva during 2004.
Oophoi: synths, voice, percussions, electronics, samples.

Oöphoi - I Hear the Woods Whispering

Artist: Oöphoi
P: 2013
Not long before his passing Oophoi gave us the recordings of two, previously unreleased parts from the "I Hear" trilogy. Part one "I Hear The Water Dreaming" was a collaboration with Louisa John-Krol and released in 2005. The other parts "I Hear The Wind Singing" and "I Hear The Woods Whispering" were initially meant for further collaboration but for some reason this never came off the ground. On Gigi's request we edited and released the basic tracks, with artwork from his beloved wife Alessandra. Both albums showcase, in retrospect, Oophoi's talents for creating aural paintings of nature in a pure and soothing way.
