Apologizing in advance for my own Press Release, of which I am not fond of, I will mostly use this page as a reference point to group together all my published music works within a single, easily reachable web page. This resource is mostly due to archival purposes, and it is not meant as a self-congratulatory monument to inertia: unless you are personally interested in my music or willing to risk remaining annoyed (or both), you are most likely wasting your little available free time. There is already the highly celebrated music with millions if not billions of numeral achievements and recommendations for that.
Unlike the shorter page “Life and Works”, in which my music works are barely listed, this page will feature more details per work, such as recording dates, so that the latter are not scattered all around different web pages hard to consult. As a bonus added, I have also added all the graphic art inherent to the album logos.
Note: Dates are here listed in the international standard Day\Month\Year format (I have switched to using this format in 2024; older pages I wrote will most likely use the old Month\Day\Year format).

About “serial numbers”: see note below4 at the bottom of this page.
St.8 Of Emergency
Recording sessions: August 2013 — 8 June 2015.
Released on 8 August 2015.
Serial N°: 80C0001.
1 CD — 12 tracks.
Duration: 66:59. Note: Some old CD masterings from 2015 ran at 66:54, possibly because of a “wrong” CD burning setting that eliminated silent portions between tracks. That is why vintage booklets reported that duration instead.
Kokolinth Isle
Recording sessions: August 2015 — 8 April 2016.
Released on 12 April 2016.
Serial N°: 80C0002.
1 CD — 12 tracks (originally 1 uninterrupted track).
Duration: 59:02
Note: there is also a video movie version (down below), which was originally meant and started in 2016 and finally completed in 2022. This is was originally meant as a multimedia musical operetta in 1 movement, with the playback video acting as a background layer. Notice also that, optionally, the work can be sync’ed with a mute projection of the movie “300” (at least the first 59 minutes) the same way The Wizard of Oz can be sync’ed with The Dark Side of the Moon.
Arcadia
Recording sessions: April 2017 — 2 July 2017.
Released on 4 July 2017.
Serial N°: 80C0003.
1 CD — 12 tracks.
Duration: 55:45 — Note: originally on the CD, the real duration reported on the booklet was altered on purpose in order to hide the “hidden tracks”.
80C’s All Stars: 2014-2017 (Compilation)
Compilation album, also comprising newly released material.
Recording sessions: August 2013 — September 2017.
Released on 6 September 2017.
Serial N°: 80C1001.
2 Disks — 15 tracks each. Total: 30 tracks.
Duration:
Disk 01 — 01:14:17
Disk 02 — 01:05:30
Total — 02:19:47
Below here are the 10 tracks unique to this release.
Furnaces of Forfaits
Double album (2 disks).
Recording sessions: October 2017 — 7 May 2018.
Released on 8 May 2018.
Serial N°: 80C0004.
2 CD — 8 tracks each. Total: 16 tracks.
Duration:
Disk 01 — 00:57:08
Disk 02 — 00:56:57
Total — 01:54:05
Note: Do not rely on the total duration, as Disk 2 contains a few minutes of silence that hide the hidden tracks left at the end.
The “Lost Chapters” (Compilation)
Originally released as a Compilation album.
Reissued online as an Extended Play as originally meant.
Recorded Sessions: August 2013 — July 2018.
Newly added songs recorded between June and July 2018, with the exception of “Grapes”, recorded March 2014.Released on 25 July 2018.
Serial N°: 80C1002.
1 CD — originally 12 tracks. Now a 5 tracks E.P. (i.e.: 4 tracks plus an instrumental coda separed into its own track).
Duration:
50:46 (Compilation Edition).
18:13 (E.P. Edition).
Uri’s Domain
Recording sessions: July 2018 — February 2019.
Released on 23 February 2019.
Serial N°: 80C0005.
1 CD — 12 tracks.
Duration: 67:16 — Note: I conceived two of the “hidden tracks” (more precisely, the one on track #03 and the one one track #10 split in two at the beginning and at the ending) to self-destroy themselves after listening. Because of current limits on customization of the currently available means, I could not replicate it in a feasible way for the audience. Therefore, the self-destroying “patching” has been replicated instead on the video version of the album, which lasts 60:35 minutes had the “self-erasing” patching been possible.
VXmas Concerto E.P.
Extended play.
Recording sessions: September — October 2019.
Released on 30 October 2019.
Serial N°: 80C3001.
4 tracks.
Duration: 18:37.
Note: The idea behind this E.P. and the previous album’s concept of self-erasing sections was that, having 60 minutes and half on the album and having 18 and half here, you could then patch the two of them together into a 79 minutes album + E.P. grouping, thus lasting the maximum capacity of a CD (78 minutes) plus overwriting 1 extra minute (either to the prelid or to some other section of the CD), for a total of 79 minutes — i.e.: the maximum in terms of standard CD technology.

Duration: 48:05.
Serial N°: 80C2001.
This one is a live rendition of my Bass Guitar Sonata 1, in 3 movements. For convenience, it has been split into 3 tracks, one for each movement. It was performed in real time at the first take and recorded in real time, and published shortly thereafter. The only (real-time) overdub consisted of an auxiliary send with reverb effects via a portable mixer that recorded separately from the main recording device. All other effects are only via analog pedals and extended techniques (no, neither the bowed higher string nor the electric razor are overdubbed, meaning that in those parts I have been playing those bass lines with one hand, as video footage on my YouTube channel amply demonstrate I am capable of doing) — no “cheating” was necessary, as I only had very little time.
Raleigh Höle E.P.
W A R N I N G : Explicit cover art! The track player down below fortunately has the album’s image downsized and cropped, so no major concern here at least.

Released on 1 June 2025.
Serial N°: 80C3002.
3 tracks.
Duration: 46:34.
Bonus: Gallery of Images
October 2025 Update: Just before going into my internet retirement period, I have added at the end of this page a few photo galleries from my personal collections of the 1st mastered copies of my albums, which were made at the time of the release of each album. As you can see, every pressing was meticolously “handcrafted” (almost in a standoff of the kind of “Claude Monet VS Walmart”).
Unfortunately, the photos themselves are relatively low-res because I am using quite old equipment, and I don’t want to waste money on “updating” on fanciful ultra-expensive gadgets I cannot afford that will be obsoleted if not malfunctionant in less than 10 years (as History has taught me).
The last published album in CD format ever was Nietzcheparable. Note however that only 2 CD copies of The ‘Lost Chapters’ were ever released (it was originally a personal commission), and VXmas Concerto E.P. was only published as a CD and booklet with no CD case (I was running out of stock material and so I saved the remaining one for Nietzcheparable).
Nietzcheparable actually comprises a double album jointly with its originally-intended other half, i.e. Qanned Niche, thus comprising a quadruple album (x2 CD) lasting almost three hours of music. In turn, the last track, Quetchua Clues, has been left unfinished because of the Pandemic and the subsequent 2022 inflation. If completed as originally composed and intended, this last multi-part composition (lasting between 60 and 70 minutes) would have brought the total length to 200-210 minutes of music.
As with the original albums up to 2020, The “Lost Chapters” was also originally published on CD format, thus consisting in a compilation album with both new and previously released material. Originally, it was meant as an Extended Play: this latter solution has been brought once I re-released the record also in video format. The confusion aroused mostly because it was originally meant and published as a stand-alone limited edition (i.e.: 2 copies), where most of the tracks featured in there were already released to a larger public via the previous Compilation Album, 80C’s All Stars. To put it shortly, I was asked not to release it as an Extended Play by the fans who commissioned me to do this work.
In addition to the previously listed extended plays there is also the originally intended (unreleased at the time) E.P. version of The “Lost Chapters” — see the previous note for further details.
“Serial Numbers” are a legacy from when the albums used to be handcrafted on the physical CD format. The format is the following: 1st number = Release type, last 3 numbers = Release number by type. Release type numbers: 0 = Studio Album, 1 = Compilation Album, 2 = Live Album, 3 = Extended Play & Mini-Album, 4 = Miscellaneous (Promo, Box Set, etc.) (Unused). Ever since my switch to digital distribution these serial numbers are now largely useless. Starting from 2024, I have switched to using the “Opus Number” format “Op.”. The first 11 releases (counted as whole albums, being those unitary works) use the Op. numbers from “Op.1” to “Op.11” in chronological order of release, whereas from “Op.12” onwards the numbers will reflect the composition dates and not the release dates, for the works I compose now prove excruciating in terms of being recorded and released due to busy time schedules (I have very little free time now, not to mention other constrains, total lack of interest on behalf of performers, cultural organizations, etc., so for now at least I have to perform all parts myself one at a time as de facto a one-man orchestra), since the gap between composition, recording, and release has become exceedingly wide.
