Doesn't have to be j-pop/rock, so if you want, u can post their music videos here too and give us a chance to actually see for our very own eyes how amazingly talented they are ^_^!

Maybe I may also add some of my own music? I know it's "self-promotion" but we are not U2 (unfortunately moneyside, luckily "artisticly") and I assure you I am not just spamming here and there. I just try to find new opinions on our own music around the world, hoping to find someone who may like what we do.

I do play and write music for an italian "ambient jazz" (with tips of celtic, new age and chillout) band called "The Wimshurst's Machine". We are independent, no major labels at our back and I'm more honestly trying to spread the word about our music to get listeners than to sell anything. I love music in itself and I do it for fun! Our influences: Mike Oldfield, Kitaro, David Arkenstone, Alan Parsons and much many more.
But a 1000 words can't explain our music genre, so I'll directly go on with something more real, hoping you may like it. Here some example (deep links from different sites, hoping the servers would not be all down in the same moment, LOL):


"Ghosts of Fallow Grounds" - The Wimshurst's Machine

"Celtic Death Ballad" - The Wimshurst's Machine

"Magic Lights" - The Wimshurst's Machine

Click here to download it entirely for free as MP3!

"Bayside Waltz" - The Wimshurst's Machine

The Wimshurst's Machine is a band born in 2003 in Torino, Italy, by the crazy idea of two lovers of Celtic Music and Electronica. The project then melted together 8 musicians, each one with their own musical experiences and what you may hear now is a fusion of the tastes of the 8 bandmembers (Ambient, Celtic, Jazz, Chillout, Rock, New Age, Electronica, Classical). Now the band has several CDs available: "A traveller who didn't ask for glory" (2004), "The Alchemist" (2005) and "Time Traveller" (2007) are the main ones. You may also find a collection named "Freedom Lights" published on iTunes by the british independent label Astranova.

If you have iTunes, to reach "Freedom Lights" just go here:

If you're interested in "A traveller who didn't ask for glory":
CD Baby: THE WIMSHURST'S MACHINE: A traveller who didn't ask for glory
(also available on iTunes)

If you're interested in "The Alchemist":
View CD
(also available on iTunes)

If you're interested on "Time Traveller", will be soon available on CDbaby and iTunes as well (just released!).


Hope you may enjoy our music and forgive my self-promotion, but you did ask for Arts and hope music is within the art you admitted. Thank you for the opportunity and for your patience, if I invaded without will a place where this was not permitted!

Guthorm: Well i must say it's not everyday i get to hear music like this :P it feels almost soothing and romantic actually.. like those mystical songs u hear in classical english tv shows or something..
Italian band you say? That's awesome man
As long as it has something to do with music, i don't see a problem
for rules and regulations however, please direct yourself to the first post of this thread as i've alrdy explained everything there(no worries tho, i dun think u broke anyone of them haha..)
looking forward to hearing more of your band's charming music.

P.S. cool pic u got in ur profile
