SHAPE+: Dino Spiluttini - Angelic Airwaves I+II

Dino Spiluttini presents the first two volumes of his sound recycling project Angelic Airwaves. Beyond the usual confines of the DJ mix, the project focuses on samples as raw material. Using only sampled build-ups from 1990s trance tracks, reworked acapellas, and his own voice as source materials, Spiluttini creates charged ambiences which ripple, billow and saturate. Voices and pads seep delay-soaked from their song and floor contexts into protracted yearnings for joy, strength and connection. Vienna-based Dino Spiluttini approaches contemporary electronic music with pointed emotional dynamics. His work often displays an anxious or brooding yearning for fulfilment and respite from troubled embodiment, frustrated identity, or worldly unease. Since 2019’s Editions Mego release Heaven, which contemplated death, reunion and bodily perfection with choirs, organs, harps and pads, Spiluttini has focussed on a lusher and more tempered approach drawn towards trance euphoria.
