July 15, 2025 MIGLIO’s “Musica Elettronica” Redraws the Club Map with Grit and Memory

MIGLIO’s “Musica Elettronica” Redraws the Club Map with Grit and Memory

Italian artist MIGLIO returns with ‘Musica Elettronica, a brooding, richly textured single that dives deep into the emotional landscape of electronic resistance. Released via Peroni Dischi on June 27, 2025, the track marks a bold shift in sonic direction—darker, grittier, and strikingly personal.

Known for previous critically acclaimed albums Manifesti e immaginari sensibili (2022) and Futuro Splendido (2023), MIGLIO (aka Alessia Zappamiglio) now ventures further into an experimental domain. Produced by Francesco Fantini, whose avant-garde approach has previously aligned with Lorenzo Senni and Warp Records, this new single blends contemporary songwriting with rugged new wave grit and atmospheric electronics.

Musica Elettronica is more than a song—it’s an audiovisual statement. It evokes ’80s Berlin and Bologna, referencing containers, urban noise, protest squares, and post-industrial club spaces. With pulsing synths and raw emotional delivery, MIGLIO offers a melancholic yet energetic meditation on escapism, routine, and social unrest.

As she describes it: “It speaks to the tension between routine and the urge to disappear, to break away. Like stepping out of a club and finding yourself in a square, protesting.”

This is slow-dancing in solitude. Music that marches and weeps. And it signals the beginning of a new artistic cycle for one of Italy’s most daring voices in electronic-infused songwriting.

June 5, 2025 Transcultural Artist Munsha Confronts Societal Pressures in THE FALL OF THE ASTRONAUTS

Transcultural Artist Munsha Confronts Societal Pressures in THE FALL OF THE ASTRONAUTS

Munsha’s 10th studio album, THE FALL OF THE ASTRONAUTS, marks a significant step in her career, combining her skills as a composer and performer with a full-scale music theatre production. Behind the name Munsha is Daniela Lunelli, an artist with roots in both classical music and the punk DIY scene. Now working out of Berlin, she has built a reputation for crossing cultural and musical boundaries, performing all vocals and instrumentation herself in English and German for this release.

Watch here:

The album is directly linked to Alices Geschwister, a theatre piece that reworks Alice in Wonderland into a narrative set in a mental institution, tackling themes of compulsory psychiatric treatment. Spanning 14 tracks, THE FALL OF THE ASTRONAUTS was developed alongside the script, ensuring the music aligns with the story’s exploration of identity and societal pressures. This dual creation process highlights Munsha’s ability to integrate sound with narrative, offering a cohesive experience across both mediums.

In terms of sound, the album draws from a wide range of styles, incorporating elements like cello melodies, orchestral arrangements, and electronic textures. Munsha cites influences from artists such as Goldfrapp, Ryūichi Sakamoto, Klaus Nomi, and filmmaker David Lynch, which show up in the album’s cinematic quality and varied production. The result is a project that resists easy categorization, reflecting her aim to capture human diversity through music. For Munsha, THE FALL OF THE ASTRONAUTS is both a standalone work and a key component of a broader artistic statement, demonstrating her range and commitment to pushing creative limits.
