Giorgia Berry's latest release "Non sono sola" (which translates to "I am not alone") takes listeners on an ethereal journey through soundscapes that blend nostalgia with modern electronic textures. Released under the independent IBIS label , this captivating new age soundtrack showcases Berry's unique ability to create immersive musical experiences that stick with you long after the final note fades.
The track stands out in today's electronic music scene. Really stands out. With its pulsing synthwave elements and delicate melodic hooks, Berry creates something both familiar and fresh. The production quality? Impeccable, yet it maintains that slightly raw edge that gives electronic pop its soul.
Composer Pierpaolo Beretta, who worked closely with Berry on this project, brings his signature atmospheric touch to "Non sono sola." His background in film scoring is evident throughout—you can practically see the cinematic scenes unfolding as the track progresses. Beretta's previous work in the new age genre has earned him respect among peers, but this collaboration might just be his most accessible piece yet.
What makes this release particularly interesting is how it bridges several worlds. It's got those retro synth hooks that transport you back to the 80s, but the production techniques are thoroughly modern. Can music be both nostalgic and forward-looking? In Berry's hands, absolutely.
The IBIS label deserves credit too. They've been quietly building a roster of artists who push boundaries within the electronic pop and new age soundtrack realm. Small independent labels like IBIS often take chances on experimental sounds that major labels won't touch, and in this case, it's paid off beautifully.
Berry's vocal performance on "Non sono sola" adds another dimension to the already rich soundscape. Her voice floats above the synthwave instrumentation, sometimes merging with it in a way that makes it hard to tell where the electronics end and the human element begins. That's kinda the point, I think.
Critics have noted the track's hypnotic quality. One reviewer described it as "the perfect soundtrack for late-night drives or moments of introspection"—and they're not wrong. The layered production by Pierpaolo Beretta creates a sense of depth that rewards repeated listening.
For fans of electronic music looking for something with a bit more substance than typical chart fare, Giorgia Berry's "Non sono sola" offers a refreshing alternative. It embraces new age sensibilities while remaining accessible to casual listeners. The track demonstrates why the synthwave revival continues to gain momentum—when done right, these retro synth hooks connect on an emotional level that transcends mere nostalgia.
Berry's growing fanbase will surely embrace this latest offering, while newcomers might just find themselves falling down a pleasant rabbit hole, exploring her earlier works and similar artists in the electronic pop landscape. And isn't that what great music should do? Lead us somewhere unexpected.
