To really get into ‘Aimlessly’, we first need to set an adequate mood… imagine yourself back in the 70s. It is late at night, and you are sneaking around a museum trying to find a suitable entrance and subsequently steal a precious art piece… then, imagine ‘Aimlessly’ as a fitting soundtrack. Penned by Italian guitarist and musician Gianfranco Malorgio, the composition is primarily inspired by cop and crime movies of the 70s.
We’re thinking gloomy atmospheres, murky carjackings, bent cops and free-flowing bullets; it’s all there, in the moderately intense, gently unsettling mood contained in ‘Aimlessly’. Published by Papilio Records, the track is part of a larger body of work focused on soundtracks and cinematic motifs. From a production standpoint, the record is very well recorded, with slow-moving guitar tinges that evoke a dark, enigmatic outlook.
Hailing from Rome, Malorgio boasts a long career spent in the Italian capital’s bustling jazz and gipsy jazz scene. Delving deeper into ‘Aimlessly’, Gianfranco explains: “The song was composed with a possible film adaptation in mind and is part of a compositional idea inspired by the detective films of the 70s.”
