Boosta returns with new solo album 'Soloist' and Italian tour

Davide 'Boosta' Dileo, keyboardist of the Italian band Subsonica, has released a new solo album titled 'Soloist', following 'Facile' (2020) and 'Post Piano Sessions' (2022). The album explores a meeting point between tradition and avant-garde, blending contemplative piano with electronic manipulations inspired by Brian Eno and Harold Budd. A tour begins on April 29 in Vicenza, continuing through major Italian cities. In an interview, Boosta discusses his creative process, describing composition as archaeology that strips away the superfluous. He emphasizes the importance of silence as a container for listening and the shift from band dynamics to solo performance, where he feels 'naked' and must be fully present. His studio, Sonogramma, explores the visual grammar of sound. He also highlights his project 'Scuola di musica elettronica per l'infanzia', an electronic music school for children that uses sound as a formative language, allowing immediate exploration without technical barriers.
