Following the long tradition of those trying to lift spirits by the means of pure and bright sounds, there is The Explosion - a trio whose name reflects so accurately the radiant modus operandi as well as the effusion that must have surrounded the smooth recording process of their first album.

Founded in the wake of the project of live reworks of the great minimalist manitou Terry Riley, executed by Gilbert Cohen aka "Gilb'r", half of Ch�teau Flight and crew leader of Versatile Records (machines, production), Fabrizio Rat (piano, synthesizer) and Giani Caserotto (guitar) of Cabaret Contemporain, The Explosion has shaped its identity opting for nightly sessions, improvised around synthesizer patterns and sequences, with the idea of developing - at length - landscapes in which to get lost and to get reinvented again.
