We are thrilled to be working with Luigi Milanese on his latest release Closer to Heaven, it’s been 3 years since Milanese released his highly acclaimed debut solo album Equinox via Melodic Revolution Records. Closer to Heaven the new album by Milanese was released in April via Italian label Black Widow Records for Italian distribution and is now available for sale and distribution in North America through Melodic Revolution Records.
Milanese reached out to some of the finest Italian musicians for this release, many not well known in other regions of the world and that is about to change, however there is one musician on the album that is not Italian and his name may ring a bell with many. Milanese brought in Flutist John Hackett, known for his work globally with such artist as Franck Carducci, Nick Magnus, Anthony Phillips and his brother Steve Hackett to name but a few.
Closer to Heaven does not fall into a single category or style of music, Milanese delivers a beautiful musical tapestry with his latest release, interwoven with lush vocals and astonishing instrumentation. Closer to Heaven stretches the boundaries of the listener with music ranging from Ambient, Blues Rock, Pop, Jazz, Progressive and even touches of Classical.
