Italian composer Victor Cerullo (1969) had already released 2 solo CDs "Ludus" (1998) and "Loneflyer" (2000) on Dutch recording label "Groove Unlimited" by the moment of releasing his third solo CD "Visions" on "Electroshock Records" label in 2003. Besides he also produced some tracks for various singles and compilation CDs. Being the hereditary musician Victor has selected for himself an area of modern electronic music. Originally his creativity tested the certain influence of such genres as prog-rock on the one hand and European traditional melodic electronic music with another. Prevalence of this second melodic component with combination of Cerullo's skill to create completely special and bright musical atmosphere in all his compositions became appreciable in "Loneflyer" CD. Victor Cerullo is a big admirer of the famous Russian film-director Andrey Tarkovsky and "Visions" CD is a homage to this great artist. It marks a new stage in composer's creative evolution and represents a fantastic combination of very beautiful melodious tracks, gloomy "ambient" music and various examples from an arsenal of electroacoustic music: artificial and real noises and sounds, quotations from classical compositions and unexpectedly arising illusive voices carried by a mysterious echo. Victor Cerullo contributed to the "Electroshock Records" CD "Electroacoustic Music Vol. IX" with the track "Rusalki", inspired by Michail Bulgakov's novel "The Master and Margarita" and recently proposed a tuning interchange document format for software synthesizers, called mix (more on this topic at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/16tone)
