June 2008 news: Again had and still having health problems.
Anyway I finally released "NOH TIS: Themes": today (02 june) is the PRE-release directly from here.
I shipped CD's to CDbaby and done all my part of things to set up the album, so it will be available soon onto CDbaby and iTunes: it's up to them now. Last time they were quick with my albums on both vendors.
This time I restricted/limited the digital distribution of the album to main vendors only.

24 june update: the album arrived at CDbaby just a few days ago (it took a lot to arrive in USA this time. Last week I began to think about the pack was gone lost). It's still under processing for publication on their site.

May 2008 news: Due to a particular illness/sickness, I wasn't able during last month to sit and work at computer and finish the last affairs for the album. Other affairs (not musical) got away also their times and needed efforts..
Now getting better I had the chance to work for the final things for the album, so I will be able to begin to release "NOH TIS Themes" (starting from this site) in a week or less (today is 20th of May).
Thankyou for your patience.

March 2008 news: Musical and artistical work on "NOH: Themes" seems to be concluded [at last!! :)) ].
The new album is now under final revisions and management phases.
Latest March update: rethinking about the final tracklist, so some change happened..
-
January 2008 news: Working a lot and hard on first of the two new albums of No Ordinary Human, TIS project.
Working over guitar recording, mixing and also various fixing on already completed compositions.
A new cover graphics is also under producing.
In the meanwhile someone near the vocalist is working on a video for the song "Miss You So Much": we were shown already a promising first demo version. This would be the first musical video for us. :)
-

November 2007 news: All albums (republished under EAR catalog) are now also on CDbaby.com.
Waiting for next step now.
Update: all of them are already also on iTunes (they were quick): check your local store if interested.
In the meanwhile good news about the creative side for NOH composition: I got on work a new guitarist on the vocal track of the album ("Miss You So Much"), and he is a darn of a good player!
He's italian, but lives in the USA now. He played guitars (on stages and studios) for famous musicians here in Italy long tme ago. There is a chance that he will contribute also on other tracks of album, where guitar parts are present already in the arrangements.
And yes, this will probably delay again the finishing of the two new albums, but anyway it would have been delayed all the same for other matters .

October 2007 news: Due to bureaucratic and technical matters, the release of "No Ordinary Human -TIS" is delayed and will not happen in October as previously planned. I'm sorry for this.
However the artistical work over the album is not yet finished.
I'm close in getting an agreement with independant UK label Earth Academy Records (yes, those who published "World Wide Kind 2" compilation), and so Andrea Priora will be officially part of the label artist roster, and will produce albums under the label name.
I'll keep informed about more news.

September 2007 news: Back on work on site updating with new evolved infos about the new albums... and of course back on work on "No Ordinary Human -TIS" music! ;-)
Finally updated medley mixes of all remastered albums, included new medley mixes of the 2 albums of "No Ordinary Human -TIS" album. The 160 kbit quality files are in the music/songs section of this site, check them.

July 2007 news: Direct digital downloads of albums are now available in MP3 format at 192 kbit quality.
No DRM protection limits were added, so files are playable on all players. Color files of booklet graphics of albums are included with every download. The download option is present on the updated albums page, together with the option of the purchase of the audio cd (high quality CD-Rs with color booklets, inlays and CD labels).
For the digital release event every album was carefully remastered, and now all albums feature the best quality they have ever had, as on audio CD as on MP3 files.
The demo files and medley mixes on this site (or on linked pages) aren't updated yet. We apologize for that, please we ask you to be patient. They will be updated as soon as possible with files originated from the new mastered recordings..

June 2007 news: "No Ordinary Human -TIS" album project goes on, as fast as possible. However it will see light in a different form respect what planned during the past months, that is no more as a double CD album only. That means that now the album will be split into two separate single CD albums:
"No Ordinary Human TIS - Themes"
"No Ordinary Human TIS - Extended Score"
The first CD will feature most of the tracks with main and strong anthemes composed for the NOH project, while the second CD will feature the rest of the tracks and those which have a more action or scoring feel.
And the project will be distributed around in such version, the two separate albums.
With such form of the project it's not excluded that a third CD of NOH, with new tracks, could come to life during next year.
Anyway a double CD special edition too will be available from this website only, featuring the original planned trackist for the two CDs.
During summer covers, graphics and sleevenotes will be revisioned, and at least the first CD will be ready for the end of september, with the second following soon after.

March 2007 news: Various updating around the pages of this site. New photos section.
New updated medley demo of new album "No Ordinary Human -TIS" are available for download, in "split in two parts" form and in "just one longer file only" 160 kbit MP3 version. (You can find this last one in the music archive section)
Andrea is still working on the album: he had to dedicate to a new complete mastering of the tracks already finished (you can listen to the improvement in the new medley demo), because he is preparing a demo prototype to send to a few music labels for trying to get a deal with them.
However many tracks recently saw life in their final and definitive recording.

September 2006 news: H3O has changed their name into H3O Reaktor, to avoid some confusion and distinguish more their project. Their first album "Emotional Reaction" is available also on our webshop now.
At last the compilation World wide Kind 2 (by UK label Earth Academy Records) had been pressed and published. We will have very soon some copies on our webshop too. We remind you that it contains the track by Andrea "Inverted Polarity -wwk mix".

April 2006 news:
After some months of silence (in all senses I assure) Andrea's music is flowing again. :-)
During January his music DAW completely burnt out, leaving on hold all projects he was working on.
He had to wait almost two months for making it run again, due to the fact he had to get another precise identical mainboard to recover the precious projects of the last two weeks work: that was the only way to get back all the datas on two hard disks.
After that first thing Andrea done with the new DAW was to finalize the new master of the H3O's album "Emotional Reaction" (he was mainly working on that) and sending demos to some european labels.
Meanwhile the game project has sunk again at the source... and this time for good; a pity. But so now Andrea has more time for his next own project: No Ordinary Human, the soundtrack.
He has restarted working on the tracks and some of them are already being rearranged and improved, included also some made originally for the game. For sure this album will contain some of the best ever tracks composed by him.
More, all new music now is coming out through new analog/digital mixer and stuff: infact during the last months Andrea upgraded and evolved his studio stuff to improve as on quality as on easiness of work for better results on all sides. :-)
