Generally, intellectually, it's a reasonable wish for music (and all art) to be both accessible and inaccessible at once. Listening to Migrations, one could reasonably argue the lack of the latter - a certain Eno-esque conservative rebelliousness that takes quite some time to fade, only at halfway point. In other respects, Migrations could be just as reasonably regarded as one looped guitar and synths sublimeness. Errante (who, like Fabio Orsi, comes from the city of Naples) makes easy music, and perhaps the easy way. "Easy listening" that sometimes goes in the direction of "New Age", but never crosses line. Not too deep, certainly not very dark but not too bright either. Fair and balanced, so to speak... Maybe there'd be space to add, but not in mind anyway. Migrations is the first in Apegenine's "Chapitre", a series dedicated to "ambient music, field recordings, modern composition". Might as well tune in.

It's just a beatiful album. No need for clarifying the easy nature of it, that's simply arrogant
