about

Laura Masotto continues the graceful evolution of her sound with sophomore album The Spirit Of Things, out now on 7K!. The sublime record was written and composed in its entirety by the Italian artist over the course of two years and marks her most devastatingly emotional work to date.

The violin remains at the heart of Masotto's compositions and is supported by viola, shamanic drums and analogue synths, all of which gain more space and importance than ever before. In fact, the sounds of her Prophet Rev 2 and Moog Subsequent 37 envelop the string melodies that guide each piece, while her experimentation with affected violin - the result of a decade of work - adds further sophistication and helps distinguish the album in all-new ways.

More than any previous work, The Spirit Of Things conveys the true emotional impact of Masotto’s music. It is one that has taken inspiration from shamanic practices which she has studied since 2021 after experiencing her own ancient shamanic journey which led her to find her spirit animal. As such, the album represents a metaphorical journey in an invisible world - a new perception of the essence of life and nature that combines both ancestral and mysterious sonic elements.

Each track on the album started with Masotto creating a loose framework on analogue synths. “I wanted to create a musical space in which I could be free to improvise," she says. "This allowed me to let my emotions flow in an unconditioned way and allow the tracks to be born organically in their own sacred space as I search for a connection between the spirituality of the earth, animals, and human beings through music."
