The Sound of Italian Post-Rock

"The Sound of Italian Post-Rock" is a sweeping collection that captures the diverse voices shaping Italy’s post-rock scene. Featuring bands like The Chasing Monster, Quiet is the new Loud, and Winter Dust, this playlist moves between towering crescendos and delicate ambient passages. From the cinematic layers of Threestepstotheocean’s "Last Breath of Air (Oceanside Pt.2)" to the heavier, textured sounds of EUF's "Burn You! Slow Idiot, Again," it showcases a rich palette of moods and atmospheres.

The set covers a lot of ground, balancing newer acts like Astetal and Francesco Gatto with genre veterans like Vanessa Van Basten. Tracks like "Seljalandsfoss" by Elara bring a washed-out, dreamy quality, while "Badman (Ting)" by Valerian Swing featuring Flowdan pushes into experimental territory. Whether it's the melancholic strains of "Disquiet" by Ai Margini Della Città or the expansive feel of "Au Cabaret Vert" by Goodbye, Kings, this playlist offers a wide-ranging survey of the emotional and sonic depth found in Italian post-rock today.
