On another note: new italian review.
“Cinquantadue minuti di musica strumentale magistralmente orchestrata da Tristan Irvine, meglio conosciuto sotto il nome di Fragments of Winter. Stiamo parlando del secondo disco di questo giovane artista, Skyrockets, un mix di elettronica e musica ambient che fanno riflettere e rilassare allo stesso tempo…”
]]>“Un viaggio, un sogno, un mondo parallelo. “Skyrockets” è un opera ben strutturata, in cui si incontrano passato e futuro, poiché musica classica ed elettronica sono “shakerati” insieme alla perfezione, creando un cocktail veramente inebriante… 8.5/10″
]]>“It’s all instrumental work, but the music tells a story…seriously now, you haven’t heard this before! If you have ever wanted to hear an album that drags you in deep and forces you to confront your emotions, then this would suit… 4/5″

]]>Sotto un aspetto generale è qualcosa di indispensabile e ormai comune. Al riguardo, spesso ho il desiderio di esplorare epoche antiche e provare a cambiare vita eliminando tutto ciò che risulta superfluo, avere un contatto più diretto con la natura..chissà, magari un giorno, quando verrà messa in commercio la macchina del tempo…” ]]>
Listen to the albums in their entirety and perhaps.. buy them?
You are the one to name the price and choose the audio format you want to download. Isn’t it great?
[If you want to experience the albums in the best way possible, please choose FLAC or Apple Lossless, which are high quality, totally gap-less formats]
Plus, I wrote a track-by-track documentary for Skyrockets (which you will find in the about section) so you’ll be able to perceive a better view of the record as a whole and understand its musical meanings, while it flows song after song on your music player.
The albums are also available at Amie Street and Jamendo, if you prefer (but I highly suggest you use Bandcamp anyway).
Personal opinions, thoughs, reviews, love mails, hate mails are welcome and appreciated, both through comments and by email.
]]>You can find updates, news and journal (you don’t wanna miss a thing? subscribe to the rss feed), listen to and buy the albums released so far, read the bio, look at the pictures and download the press kit (not available yet).
Also, if you would like to review the record, make an interview, talk to me or whatever, drop me a line and I will be glad to answer you back.
