And so Solar Phenomena’s astral adventures continue into the furthest corners of the technoid galaxy Having executed a safe and successful take-off earlier this summer with Echoplex’s “Solar Experience”, the new label continues to explore the stars with rising Roman Antonio Ruscito. Following releases on Who Whom and Edit Select earlier this year, Ruscito navigates us through a conceptual suite that questions ideas of existence and loneliness within a reality that blurs with virtuality at such a pace we have to question everything.

It's time to come together.
