MY #NYC ART/MUSIC VIDEO PLAYLIST ON YOUTUBE
October 2025: NYC bassist / composer / performing and recording artist Tomaso Semioli fuses New York City street-art and groove music on his decidedly D.I.Y. (Do It Yourself) releases aptly titled Ambient Sketches, Vol. 1. & Vol. 2.
Each song sketch compliments a specific photographic art collage created by Tomaso Semioli for his MY #NYC collection (see link below). These collages are an inimitable kaleidoscopic interpretation of the way Tomaso experiences life in New York City.
The idea to create one-to-two-minute musical sketches was inspired by Tomaso’s observation (and timing) of how long museum and gallery visitors actually gaze at artwork on average! Tomaso’s “unfinished” production aesthetics – abrupt endings, no clean fade-outs – reflects the (often) ragged appearances of street art in New York City.
Each sketch functions as a module. Vol. 1 & 2 are best /infinitely experienced in SHUFFLE PLAY mode or a listener created playlist. As composition is the organization of musical ideas; the listener is also the composer!
All tracks composed, performed, and recorded by Tomaso Semioli.
