PRIMA MATERIA (Die Schachtel, December 2016)
… a stunning deluxe double-LP boxed edition, complete with a 4-page explanatory booklet, a 16-pages “Mandala” booklet designed by Dinamomilano and inspired by the group’s references and philosophy, custom inner sleeves with original photos printed in silver on deluxe coated paper, and of course two hi-quality vinyl records pressed in Germany.
Prima Materia – The Tail of the Tiger (Die Schachtel – 2005)
“As is the case with La Monte Young’s Theater of Eternal Music, David Hyke’s Harmonic Choir and Pauline Oliveros’s Deep Listening Band, Roberto Laneri has had a life long penchant for the droning mysteriosa of the Sound Current and with the Prima Materia ensemble he has expressed it in a disciplined, expansive and singular way.” Terry Riley, 2005.
Breath (Terre Sommerse – 2014)
BREATH is a double CD documenting two phases, both different and complementary, of Roberto Laneri’s activity.
The first CD is the recording of a solo recital by Roberto Laneri in Rome, 2010, at the Casa Scelsi museum. The second CD is another live recording, this time of In forma di cristalli, the overtone singing group founded by Roberto Laneri which enlists vocalists from Rome and Florence. Actress Ilaria Drago joins them with her narrating voice, of excerpts from Il sogno 101, an important text by composer Giacinto Scelsi.
Memorie dal Sottosuolo (M.A.P. – 2013)
The Dostoyevskyan title hints to all sorts of underworlds, musical and otherwise, which this music contacts. The only word I can find for this music is psychedelia. Music which develops according to the psyche’s not always linear detours and twistings, bypassing and re-mixing styles, structures and cultures.
Sentimental Journey (Terre Sommerse – 2011)
“Your record is a great clever madness which succeeds in mixing the impossible: jazz, opera, world music, classical music, tribal music. Most important, your music is free in your heart.” (Fran Muñoz Antón, programming director, CANAL 9 RADIO, LAS PALMAS DE GRAN CANARIA – ESPAÑA)

…here the depths of singing and of harmonic sound speak, or rather are heard. To know how to capture the inner beauty embedded in the fundamentals is an experience perhaps uncommon, and yet universal. (Gino Dal Soler, World Music, n. 50,September 2001)
