“To invent sound worlds with nostalgia for the unknown”
In German there is a word to express the nostalgia of the unknown: fernweh, translatable as nostalgia for the other, desire to leave the known circumstances and open up to the world. The word fernweh is the opposite of heimweh, nostalgia in the proper sense, the desire of the homeland or of the home.
From this friction of times and places and the magic of the crossroads are born the music of the CS 07 (LAS CANCHAS).
Here there isn’t nostalgia for the past, but for the elsewhere. Experimentation, differences and becoming are built through electronics, used not as a tool but as a vehicle for infinite movement of form. Like a cloud when it turns ‘lightly’ into unceasing shapes. Star maps, existential paths, fables and planetary vision are filte- red in the living mixer of the producer Marco Erroi and returned in the form of soundscapes, sudden encounters and lightning strikes, beyond the known places.
There is a point where memory and vision meet, it is the same where the desert and the space meet, the point where sparks and vertigo are produced. Where imaginary landscapes produce sounds and visions. (Marc Tibaldi)

COMMON SERIES: UNA SERIE DI VINILI NIENTE AFFATTO COMUNI
Intervista con Marco Erroi, producer nostrano di talento, a proposito del suo settimo nuovo vinile
Abbiamo fatto due chiacchiere con Marco Erroi, l’ennesimo producer nostrano di talento che viene osannato all’estero ancor prima di esser conosciuto in Italia, a proposito del suo settimo nuovo vinile a nome Common Series: CS07 (Las Chanchas). [continua a leggere]
Tobia D'Onofrio
Marco Erroi extends his Common Series remit into the land of the long player this week, wowing us with the bold and expressionistic ‘Las Canchas’. Inspired by his father’s trips to the countryside in the ’70s, Marco offers up a day side and a night side, filling the former with mind warping synth jams, gentle Balearic rollers and sax led slow jams, each infused with loose lysergic fx. Turning to the evening and we’re treated to sophisticated house, a sunset smoocher, bedsit pop and an entheogenic reprise. Packaged with the utmost love and care, complete with holiday photos and bilingual liner notes, this is something truly special.

CS 07 - The Slow Music Movement (Release of the day)
Weekend primed, whimsical & wobbly, tempo variable, memory jogging, dub and ethno tickled electronic music with a bit of Balearic cheese & smooth sax thrown in for good measure from Common Series.

Arriviamo in leggero ritardo ma ci perdonerete, ne siamo certi. La settima release firmata Common Series, progetto di cui siamo sempre e più innamorati (siamo in buonissima compagnia, eh, non temete!), è l’ennesimo pezzo di bravura firmato Marco Erroi. Disco di una consistenza, di un’identità e di una bellezza rara. Come al solito: pura qualità. 9

Patrick says: Unstoppable, unpredictable and utterly unique, Common Series' 7th instalment takes us into the esoteric realms of outsider electronics with 8 diverse cuts at home in their own universe. Esoteric and shamanic vibrations resonate throughout, lending the skewed excursions into Balearic jazz, folklorica, bedroom pop and coastal ambience an otherworldly unity. Records like this don't come along every day...

CS 07 - Ban Ban Ton Ton
Jazzier House comes from a slightly unexpected corner. Marco Erroi`s cut Post-Punk, esoteric Ambient, and Afro grooves, under the moniker, XXXV Gold Fingers, and on his Common Series imprint. Common Series 007 sees him show off his Jazz chops, with assistance from the sax of Emanuele Rag, the six-strings of Stefano Greco, and the keys of Gigi Chord. Divided into El Dia and La Tarde, the E.P. still has its esoteric moments – short wave, sampled dreams, poetry, and soprano singers – but electric solos dominate the record`s sides of Mogadon-ed kicks, and sunrise percussion.

Amicizia a parte, nata tra l’altro da una stima musicale via via crescente, release dopo release, ciò che ci lega al progetto Common Series – e quindi al suo attore principale Marco Erroi / GoldFinger – è l’ammirazione che nutriamo per l’accuratezza e la passione con cui porta il suo credo artistico. Mai una scorciatoia musicale, mai una posizione vagamente utilitaristica per guadagnare terreno: Common Series è un viaggio coraggioso, il manifesto di un credo che va ben oltre il numero di copie vendute o quello delle date che hanno visto (e vedranno) Marco all’opera. Di fronte a tutto questo, innamorati del suo incredibile SNTLS, non potevamo non porre l’accento sulla campagna di di crowdfunding del numero sette del suo catalogo – un disco che, tra l’altro, è stato in qualche modo “presentato” proprio all’interno del suo podcast per noi e che nei suoi quaranta minuti esplora l’estetica incredibile della label.
