Francesco Malaguti

Visionary Outsider   

Old-timey creative, romantic and dreamy, he brings Bach and the Progressive Rock on the shores of an innovative Pop music. Debuts with Odissea 1984

Francesco Malaguti was born in Bologna in 1993.
He begins to be fond of music since he was a child, and then he starts to study guitar since he was thirteen years old with the Maestro Marco Montanari.
After this period he starts to study electronics and computer science, and becomes fascinated by electronic music, despite coming mainly from a historical listening of progressive rock. Feeling the need to publish under his own name and experiment with new sounds, after a decade in which he played in various bands (especially industrial), in 2015 he releases his first DIY album, "Parti", a long experimental concept that will open the door to a series of albums that will fall, precisely, in his personal project that takes the same name, Parti, in each subsequent release.
It is a complex project, but in synthesis, as painted by the artist Olivia Teglia in the cover of the first album, it is Schrödinger's Cat observing the Tower of Babel.
It is in this period that he signs the soundtrack of the play "Furore" by Steinbeck, finalist at the Venice Biennale.
From 2015 to 2019 Francesco Malaguti produces hundreds of tracks, many of which are unpublished and unreleased, forming part of long concept albums that range between pop, electronic, art music, soundtracks, ambient music, industrial, rock, techno or IDM, without setting himself any stakes or constraints. In particular, with an experimental eye, above all, on the musical structure and de-structuring of commercial publishing.
In 2020 he discovers Gerolamo Sacco's music and signs with Miraloop. He publishes his first professional EP of his career, "Odissea 1984", a suite of four tracks dedicated to the Mediterranean sea, with the record company from Bologna. Sparkling debut: Odissea reaches the number #1 of the best selling records in the iTunes Top100 Italy, Alternative section, and the number #4 in the iTunes Top100 Italy All-genres.
