Italian guitarist, composer and producer based in Scotland, Fabrizio Brugnera, just released a new dark ambient/drone composition "This Is Darkness". Fabrizio started composing music for soundtracks of short films, advertisings and documentaries. His training has been focused on learning classical guitars in parallel with studies of electric and acoustic guitar, electric bass and composition. During his studies, which took place at the Institute of high music education "G. Briccialdi", he has been awarded with two scholarships. He concluded the course in 2005 graduating with full marks.
In 2016 he created an ambient/new age side project under the pseudonym Brugner Brokk, releasing four EPs in 2016, a full-length album in 2018 and a single in 2019. He has also collaborated with other musicians releasing four singles and an EP. With his main project, he released three EPs, five singles and one album. Eclectic still cohesive, he is constantly walking a bridge between different kinds of music. "This Is Darkness" is his first real dark ambient track, and you can give it a listen in the player below.
Fabrizio Brugnera comments: ""This Is Darkness" was composed after a reflection about the "concept" of darkness, in a philosophical context, they say darkness is the absence of light, however, the two concepts couldn't exist independently, besides everything is created in darkness. Diving into the concept can lead to paradoxical theories, the darkness itself in many cultures is often associated with something scary, creepy and evil, when instead, as a matter of fact, darkness is nothing but an abstract concept of inexistence. So the composition explores those reflections from the different points of view mentioned before, from a musical point of view there is a directionality toward evolution and creation of the atmospheric drone sounds used in the track. A curiosity... I left some seconds of absolute silence at the end of the track, after the fade-out, those seconds of "nothing" is part of the composition itself. This is the first "dark ambient" track of my discography (although "Chernobyl", my previous single, was headed towards that direction). I tend to produce a different kinds of music, from cinematic to neoclassical, space ambient, electronic,..." Link
