Hi dudes, I already finished the composing step of the first song of the new ep.
It sounds really good, tons of violins, tons of love.

I’m working on the composition of other two songs too, then I’ll record the voices.

The sound is really orchestral this time. I worked a lot on the instruments harmonies, trying to include unusual orchestral sounds like xylophones and arps. I’m pretty proud of the work I’m doing. The few people who listened to the demos described the songs as a “sad love movie soundtrack” and as a “stylisyic growth of Seaside Project, with a more complete sound and composition“.

Well, that was the goal, man.

Meanwhile, you can listen and download my first demotape here, downloaded more than 200 times from all over the world, just to be warm when the new ep will be out!

Cowabunga!

This is it!

Thank you guys, let’s keep on downloading and listening!

Here are some reviews the album received in the last months

*******************************************
Très kitsch et rétro,la musique de Seaside Project évoque l’époque new wave d’il y a quelques années.La voix, très androgyne possède un je ne sais quoi qui fascine et elle me fait penser(Per noi) à Gary Numan par instants.Certes, Seaside Project n’a pas inventé la poudre et pour l’originalité faut écouté ailleurs.Mais pour le fun, c’est extra.
*******************************************
“Ci si affeziona facilmente alle tue sonorità… questo non perchè siano scontate ma perchè fanno affiorare ricordi lontani .. e quando un brano riesce in questa magia ….. è MUSICA vera. sorrido nel leggere che la voce è fuori contesto ….ascoltate quel genio di Steve Strange ed i Visage in pezzi come “In the Year 2525″ e “Damned Don´t Cry” … lui voleva che fosse così … la voce volutamente sommessa … fuori campo … se vi sfugge questo … i Seaside Project non fanno per voi …..”
*******************************************
Seaside Project nous renvoie quelques années en arrière, de l’autre côté du Channel où les groupes, à l’époque, fleurissaient comme des champignons(OMD ou Tubeway Army pour ne citer qu’eux).Et l’artiste est tout à fait dans cet esprit.D’ailleurs la voix(je suis d’accord avec Balhaz intrigante)n’est pas sans rappeler cette époque un peu ambigüe.Et même si c’est effectivement passe partout, c’est terriblement frais et dépaysant.

“Buen sonido el de esos sinth, me recuerda a los OMD. Me gusta el sonido 80s”

“Seaside Project” is a “one man” musical experiment and represents the Emanuele Barboni’s aka zOnk Volta [Togaparty, Blue Morning Sky, The Novel] synth pop musical project.

“Seaside Project” was born in december 2007 as an acoustic show. The project is deeply inspired by 80’s and 90’s pop and dance, electro and new wave music.
