Andrea Casta Launches The Sounds Of Marble in Italy

Eclectic electric violinist, DJ, and producer Andrea Casta has officially unveiled his groundbreaking site-specific audiovisual project, "The Sounds Of Marble," set within the awe-inspiring Botticino Marble Quarry in Brescia, Italy. This unique initiative showcases the live "Cava Experience" event that took place earlier this June, providing an immersive blend of music and stunning visual artistry that captivates audiences.

The official music video for Casta's single "Fragments," which achieved the remarkable feat of reaching #1 on Beatport’s Hype MainStage Chart, is now available alongside a full 22-minute recording of the live performance. Casta describes the creative process behind this project as a conceptual and visual challenge, where he aimed to transform the monumental and historically significant marble quarry into a dynamic narrative stage for his music.

Casta articulates that "Fragments" is infused with the ethos of the "Digital Renaissance," echoing themes from his previous single, "Reconnection." The track is both a reflection of his sonic evolution and an exploration of the duality between our digitally fragmented lives and the tangible world we inhabit. He emphasizes that the music serves as a narrative thread, weaving together the quarry's rich history with its modern-day significance.

Produced in collaboration with the video team Light & Magic and the production crew BeNow s.c.p.a., "The Sounds Of Marble" features impressive visual elements, including projected marble walls, a stage constructed from extracted stone blocks, and a sophisticated lighting rig with a laser show extending over an impressive distance of 300 meters. Central to this experience is Casta’s innovative performance style, which melds the electric violin and his signature laser bow with a DJ set, creating a seamless journey through pulsing electronic beats and rich, vibrating strings.

The release highlights both the official music video for "Fragments" and the complete 22-minute live set, expertly filmed with an 8-camera setup. This immersive experience invites viewers to explore the blend of nature, industrial heritage, and global club culture that defines Casta’s artistic vision. Fans and newcomers alike can stream the project now to embark on this extraordinary auditory and visual journey.
