about

“Albero” is S A R R A M's fourth record, a well mix of drone and ambient soundscapes, crushing and doom-ish guitar soundwalls, very repetitive loops while also incorporating electronic and traditional warm whispers.
It’s a very deep and intense soundjourney, a swarm of soundwaves, a dark and dynamic ceremony of frequencies.

S A R R A M is Valerio Marras
guitar / fx, synth, glockenspiel, mandolin, kalimba.

Recorded at A.C.M.E. - Cagliari, Sardinia by Nicola Olla (2019)
Assistants: Corrado Cardia, Marco Porcu, Aurora Atzeni, Davide Ragazzo
Mixed by Nicola Olla at Blacktooth Studio, Cagliari (2020)
Mastered by James Plotkin (2020)

Artwork by Animamundi

This is the first work ever recorded at A.C.M.E.
A Collective. Music. Everything.

"Before we become too lost within visual metaphors, I will simply say that S A R R A M has produced one of the finest ambient/drone records of recent times" Everything is Noise

" This is drone with a story, and it’s one you should definitely be interested in listening to." 9/10 Distorted Sound Magazine

"The record as a whole is a vibe likewise worthy of titling a song “Diving Deep,” as rich immersion in headphone-ready drones and soundscapes comes across from opener “Heavy Sleep” onward, the evocative nature of Marras‘ work giving rise to any number of narratives for those willing to engage." The Obelisk

"Nichts für schwache Gemüter." 8/10 Soundmagnet

"Si tuviera que describirlo en tres últimas palabras: meditativo, complejo y embriagador." Retumba

"Valerio mette alla luce un ennesimo capolavoro con tutta la cura di questo mondo, lo studio approfondito nei vari percorsi di quest’opera si collega alla perfezione nei vari esperimenti creati, per un risultato magistrale." Impatto Sonoro

"Ipnotico. Oscuro. Ossessivo." 8/10 - Metalhead

"Albero è la colonna sonora di una presa di coscienza che guarda a noi stessi come al “buco nero dell’intelligenza”. Il drone ambient del disco non è mai esasperato e soffocante, ma tende alla riflessione, al nostro coinvolgimento." 7,5 - GOTR

"Tutta la sua produzione implementa la stesura personale di un racconto di affrancazione dall’oscurità e – me lo si permetta – prosegue nella ricerca di un’alba dentro l’imbrunire."
Disco della settimana | Sa Scena

"“Albero” è sì la colonna sonora del pulsare della natura, ma la maestosità di quest’ultima sembra a volte attrarre ed altre intimorire." 7 - Metalitalia

"...con Albero andremo a vivere un percorso intrigante, spruzzato e dosato con gocce di sapienza, gocce che andranno ad ingrossare un terminale comune, rappresentato appieno dall’esperienza completa e dalla fruizione di un’opera in grado certamente di sedurre e di creare un certo tepore già alla radice" Disfactory

Nightwalkers, The Silent Man and Lights on the Hill are all so incredibly good. The whole album is! From start to finish, it is a heavy, spiritual journey. At first its length made it difficult to listen to, but now it works perfectly. rubzosaurus

A perfect combination of artists. They've made wonderful music together. Note: The download for the doc/live show is down, and no one is fixing it. Don't buy the physical copy if you're looking for them. Chris Ross
