Onasander – Dawn Metrics (Digital/CD Album – Winter Light)
Until now, Italian artist Maurizio Landini had primarily collaborated with other musicians, crafting remarkable albums—such as his work with Kloob. Now, he has ventured into solo territory, presenting a release that seems deeply inspired by fantasy and dystopian worlds.
This vision is masterfully translated into dense, low-frequency vibrations that slowly build an ominous atmosphere. Buzzing waves and layered textures further intensify the tension, shaping a soundscape that feels tormented and immersive. The result is pure Dark-Ambient—deeply restrained yet profoundly evocative.
This masterpiece culminates in an apocalyptic experience, leaving a lasting impression. In my view, Onasander stands among the most striking projects in its genre to emerge in recent years. (Rating:8).

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.
