Aktopasa - Journey To The Pink Planet

Aktopasa is a three-piece band formed in the Venetian hinterland. "Journey To The Pink Planet" contains instrumental psychedelic rock; a mix of stoner, blues and prog rock. This three-men instrumental psychedelic rock band was formed at the end of 2017 in the Venetian hinterland by Marco Sebastiano Alessi (drums), Lorenzo Barutta (lead guitar) and Silvio Tozzato (bass guitar). "Aktopasa" means 'octopus' in Nepalese. Nepal is a landlocked continental state where the highest mountains on earth rise. Those who live in this country may not usually see octopuses, and probably, for these populations, the octopuses are not even a main topic in everyday conversations. Aktopasa aims to represent something that is not trivial, but with a certain - irrational - logic: psychedelic, bluesy and proggy stoner rock frequencies coming from Mount Everest, the British coast or a Caribbean island; deep down from the 'underground' or the outer space, from a time not precisely defined.
