about

The CD will be available exclusively at the 19th Dream of Dr Sardonicus Festival: www.fruitsdemerrecords.com/19thdream.html

“The Age of Nova was recorded over a 7 year period in various locations across the UK, Australia and Italy, and makes for an eclectic yet cohesive listen. […] Northern River Park is an astonishingly beautiful acoustic track somewhere between contemporary folk and the more contemplative side of indie pop. Mention must also be made of the impressive swirling colourful psychedelia of Dale Simpson’s sleeve art.” (Kim Harten Lam, Bliss Aquamarine, UK)

"Cataldi is a master of hypnotic grooves, sometimes with a dark gothic edge. And the addition of cello on several tracks is pure genius, as well as the ukulele on “The Wooden House.” Each of the nine songs stands on its own and I find it challenging to single any one of them out from the rest. Truly a great album for fans of trippy psychedelic folk." (Henry Schneider, Exposé, USA)

“È stato lui stesso in un’intervista di diversi anni fa a definire la sua musica dream folk e anche le ballate di The Age of Nova, se pur un po’ più elettriche ma sempre intrise di quella psichedelia di fine anni ’60, non fanno eccezione. Atmosfere musicali peraltro richiamate in modo evidente dai font utilizzati per la scritta del titolo e dal disegno sulla copertina dell’album.” (Fortunato Mannino, Sdiario, Italy)

“The Age of Nova is an intimate record, with a prominent role for acoustic and electric guitar. Cataldi chooses his effects with care and never lets them get in the way of the core of his songs. He keeps his distance, but offer a glimpse of what makes him tick every now and then as well. He is fully aware that he is catering to a niche audience, but it is big enough to keep him in the mood for creating and exploring.” (Hans Werksman, Here Comes the Flood, Netherlands)
