Corrado Maria De Santis – City Of Theters (Digital/CD Album – Owl Totem Recordings / Fonodroom)
Corrado Maria De Santis is an Italian guitarist known for his experimental approach, blending his instrument with electronic effects.
His latest work, released at the end of last year, consists of five tracks that guide the listener through a dense, Cinematic atmosphere. It conjures an obscure, misty universe through dark tones, layered field recordings, and intricate effects. At times, the music feels almost hopeless, like a tunnel with no end in sight. This sensation reaches its peak in the final piece, delivering an overwhelming and immersive experience.
While not every track completely resonates with me, the album undeniably contains some powerful moments. (Rating:7).

Since you’re here …
… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.
Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.
If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
