Luca Agnelli's Etruria Beat sees Italian artist Bastinov return with a fantastic full-length album entitled All Through The Night. Bastinov is a master-craftsmen who imbues his music with melody and spirituality. After first releasing on Etruria in 2013, his standout sound design and the richness of his synth-work has continued to catch attention from the likes of Adam Beyer, Sven Väth, Pan-Pot. Across six superb EP releases, he has subtly developed his sound and now, on this debut album, makes his most complete and coherent musical statement yet. The Veneti artist showcases his ability to make synths take any form as he skews and stretches them to the heavens, or breaks them into crystalline droplets on "Arponoid" and "Elaysia". Bubbling synths and drums get you in a trance on "All Through The Night" and Bastinov expertly explores a range of moods on celestial melodic rain of "Proteus".

Bastinov is back on Etruria Beat with Space Programmer. The title track starts with a hypnotic synth sequence on a 909 based beat driving through some drone-y sounds. "Cosmic" comes next with fat arpeggios that drive the song with melancholic vibes. On the flip side, Roberto Clementi takes the title track into darker zones with some distorted elements and drones. Last comes "Regis", a Detroit influenced track which is reminiscent of the Motor City's glory days.

Venice resident Bastinov opens his second release on Etruria Beat with the huge analog synth of "Prisma" (featured on Sven Väth's 2015 The Sound of the 16th Season compilation (CORMIX 051CD)), repeating over a swinging 909 beat. André Kronert, the man behind so many labels (most of them are a secret) remixes "Prisma" with a hypnotic chord, delays, and a Basic Channel-influenced beat. "Sphere" features ring modulator synth sounds and tape delays floating over an energetic groove disturbed by strong claps and effects. On the techno-flavored "Triangle," the beat is heavy, the kick is delayed, and the hat is strong.

2022 repress. Bastinov (aka Diego Gennaro) is a Venice-based young producer and DJ. Pentagon is a path into techno and in its shades, starting from punching and rolling sounds and ending up with the addition of some melodic parts. Beyond the original mixes, the EP is enriched with remixes from label boss Luca Agnelli and newcomer talents Toms:due. "Pentagon" is composed with an alternated hypnotic synth melody and a vibrant groove which will bring you into your deepest mental journey. "Theorem" was created with an amazing and pleasant chord, a devastating groove and a big, punchin' kick.
