I composed a new song with Sostrah Tinnitus, and I titled it “Mare Nectaris (a minor sea)”, the name of one minor lunar seas.
In the 90's Gianluigi Gasparetti aka Oophoi (sit tibi terra levis, Gianluigi...) composed three wonderful works inspired by the lunar seas. I owe a lot to Gianluigi because of his music, his
extraordinary fanzine “Deep Listening” and for his trust in me, which led him to publish
three works on his Umbra/Penumbra label.
I would like to dedicate this little minor Sea to him, and to the oceanic and cosmic feeling that we all felt, forgetting about it, in the mother womb.

Ho composto un nuovo pezzo con Sostrah Tinnitus, e ho voluto intitolarlo "Mare Nectaris (a minor sea)", il nome di un mare lunare minore.
Negli anni '90 Gianluigi Gasparetti in arte Oophoi (sit tibi terra levis, Gianluigi) compose tre lavori ispirati ai mari lunari. A Gianluigi devo molto per via della sua musica, della sua splendida fanzine "Deep Listening" e per la sua fiducia, dato che volle pubblicare tre miei lavori sulla sua etichetta Umbra/Penumbra. A lui dedico questo Mare del Nettare, e al sentimento oceanico e cosmico che tutti abbiamo provato, dimenticandocene, nel grembo materno.
"La deriva lunare si compie dentro di noi, adesso.
Restando qui, al sole, in mezzo alla api che sanno ogni cosa.
Più di noi."
- Niki Gresteri, per Rust Exposure"
