Squadra Omega is an Italian-cosmic-psych-impro collective that has been active since 2009. In the past 10 years the ever-changing lineup has explored a multitude of sonic territories: their Music for the Third Eye has its roots in acid psychedelic rock but over the years their sound has been enhanced and enriched by elements of free jazz, avant-garde, Kraut, Rock in Opposition, and ethno-tribal rhythms.
All these diverging elements are seamlessly merged and blended into the work of a collective that moves, shifts, morphs and expands depending on the urgency of the moment. Squadra Omega revolves around a core of two members; OmegaMatt and OmegaG8. In the band's extensive discography we find compositional freedom, improvised jam-sessions, and myriads of references, all of which oscilate between different planes of space and time.
Squadra Omega are now back with a fully electronic double album called Antiterra: 75 minutes on 5 tracks, as always improvisation-based and then carefully edited and mixed at Outside Inside Studio. In Antiterra, OmegaMatt and OmegaG8 are joined by their longtime collaborator and friend VonTesla (formerly known as Omega Invisible). In its current manifestation, the Omega universe continues to expand, absorbing Fourth World elements, Ambient Hauntological feelings, Kosmische music, minimalistic Drone-based repetitions, and poly-rhythmical asymmetries.
