After nearly ten years, independent electronic and dance artist Gianfranco Pescetti has released his latest album, “Daystar Nocturnal.” Following the success of his 2023 singles, this album takes listeners on a captivating journey through ambient and dance music.

With “Daystar Nocturnal,” Pescetti infuses classic EDM flavors with an intricate exploration of light and darkness. This duality is evident in the teaser tracks released over the past year: “Be My Ghost,” “Stopless,” and “The Wake.” Each track, impeccably produced, toggles between light, melodic, playful elements and serious, ambient soundscapes. For Pescetti, this album represents a sonic exploration that transcends traditional genre boundaries, challenging the norm by embracing the fluidity inherent in music.

“Music, for me, is something fluid. There has always been an ambivalence that I can’t get away from,” Pescetti explains. “‘Daystar Nocturnal’ is my attempt to explore the depth of emotions and create a profoundly personal and evocative sound without conforming to the rigid specifications of a particular genre, all while keeping an eye on the dance floor.”

Showcasing his talent on bass as well as in production, “Daystar Nocturnal” is designed to be a personal experience for both Pescetti and his listeners. The album features emotive and meditative tones that intertwine, highlighting Pescetti’s technical prowess. He hopes that fans will feel the existential themes throughout the album.

Electronic music composer and producer Gianfranco Pescetti has returned to the EDM scene with the new release ‘Daystar Nocturnal’. This would be his first album release in 10 years after his debut solo album, “Love is Rain” in 2014.

Having studied ballet and possessing an artistic, diverse background, Pescetti moved to San Francisco, where he became an active member of the city’s lively music scene and played bass guitar for multiple bands, including the band Alfred, which he founded with singer/guitarist Jane Woodman and cellist Zoe Keating.

Pescetti is returning to his roots with Daystar Nocturnal–a more classic EDM flavor Pescetti is well known for. Each track in ‘Daystar Nocturnal’ is a carefully crafted blend of ambient textures, electronic beats, and emotive melodies, encouraging listeners to immerse themselves in a vibrant and ever-changing musical journey.
