LIVE CONCEPT
"With this latest production, I have finally been able to embrace my dual nature as a musician and designer. Over the years, the project has undergone many changes, both in terms of style and lineup. I was still searching for a form that would come close to my idea of performance. Thanks to technology, I was finally able to rethink the concept from scratch. I wondered what would happen if I combined music, visuals, and hybrid drums. The result is what you will hear and see live." - L.B.

(Grayscaleye Remix)
I had the pleasure of reimagining Edless’ original track Zero from the album "Editing a Dream”. In this remix, I’ve subtly transformed Edless’ sound and vocals, providing my perspective on it.

Grayscaleye
(first record 2016)
(first record 2016)
The album will be released by the label Casa Lavica Records. Grayscaleye represents the convergence of the raw energy that characterizes Luca Bottigliero's live performances and his compositional aptitude, which leans towards experimental electronic sounds. The countless influences evident in each track make this album a polychromatic experience, far from being considered 'black and white,' as one might perceive from the project's name and the album itself. The record comprises 9 songs that blend the intensity of noise and industrial with the restlessness of math rock and the syncretism of electronic music. The album was recorded and mixed by Luca Bottigliero, except for vocals and drums, which were recorded at the Dirty Sound Studio in Verona. Mastering was handled by Giorgio Canali.

“Grayscaleye is the meeting point between the impetuosity that distinguishes Luca B.'s live performances and his compositional attitude, closer to experimental electronic sounds.”

Noisey
"Every time the drums kick in, they hit hard, and the guitars have the weight of Deathwish-style bands, but everything is enveloped in a soft synth fog and caressed by unabashedly melodic vocal lines."
