REVIEWS:
“Joel Gilardini’s concept records stand out both for his dark aesthetic and his emphasis on guitar-based textures. […] This is not Carl Sagan’s or Elon Musk’s concept of space exploration, but J.G. Ballard’s.” Daily Bandcamp

“It’s fascinating to see the way guitar sounds have been transposed into something different, like reaching another dimension. […] JG show us it‘s still possible to remain creative, showing an avant-garde approach in composing music. Well that’s what makes the magic of this work!” Side-Line Reviews

Best of 2020 Honorable Mentions on Avant Music News

“THE AGE OF SPACE focuses on the mood evoked by scientific exploration and SF-like images. The overtones and shimmering texture that spreads endlessly like outer space are very comfortable. Must-listen for dark ambient lovers!” Disk Union

“Gilardini introduces an experimental space ambient journey with a surprising outcome. This is just blistering splendid experimental ambient music!” Patsker @Merchants Of Air

"An expansive and dark interpretation of space [...] taking some deep moments with this music as your backdrop is a fitting moment." Chip Muse

"A masterpiece of atmospheres. Depth, texture, mental cinematography. From the timeless era of soundscapes. This deserves to be an art film or movie that wraps itself around these sounds as the plot." Bandcamp listener's review

"La guitarra sólo existe como una vaga idea en medio de todas las texturas creadas por Joel [...] pues las posibilidades del instrumento son extendidas más allá de lo reconocible [...] The Age of Space es una gran experiencia sonora: es kozmische muzik con tintes tenebrosos." Album of the month on Densidad2025

"Il paesaggio sonoro é intrigante e seduttivo con inserti magnifici di chitarra [...] in questi casi vale sempre la pena fare un viaggio senza ritorno negli spazi profondi." Ascension Magazine

"Un écho élégant, quelques loops sans ostentation et une guitare d'orfèvre, suffisent à l'interprétation évocatrice de séquences historiquement référentes." Nocovision
