"The Bush" swings gracefully between electronics, post rock and chamber music from the far north, with a strong and characteristic cinematic mood.
Definitely we have a unique product and project in our hands.“

"Gesamtkunstwerk, the total work, seems to be the only word that can describe the deployment of forces and the involvement of artists taken from any field to achieve a total immersion in a dreamland."

WELCOME TO DIEGOBUONGIORNO.COM
WHO AM I ?
I'm a composer, musician, and producer based between Rome and Reykjavik. My blood is Italian, but Iceland is my second home.
I've composed original music for films, commercials, and major events of the most important production companies and agencies, including HMNS, Saatchi & Saatchi, The Family, Mercurio Cinematografica, Frame by Frame, Magnolia, McCann Erickson, Filmmaster, Wilder, Fox, Endemol, Ferrero Pubbliregia, Leo Burnett, Sky Italia, and many others including Mediaset and Rai, and with the latter signing many differents album for their catalog.
I've written, arranged and produced music for bands and artists like The Irrepressibles, Sabina Sciubba (Brazilian Girls), Hogni Egilsson (Hjaltalin), GusGus), Author&Punisher, Clare and the Reasons, Tanya Tagaq, Amiina, Craig Walker (Archive), Little Red Lung, Jo Hamilton, Eivor, Dorian Wood. I've collaborated also with many others in the stagings of my live concerts, including Italian singer Thony, violinist Galya Bisengalieva from LCO London Contemporary Orchestra, the Russian performer Lisokot, BIM Orchestra, fine-art photographers as Kirsty Mitchell, Aela Labbè, Helen Warner, Nicol Vizioli, Jacqueline Roberts, Alex Stoddard, Brooke Shaden, Oleg Dou, and visual artists as Zaelia Bishop, Davide Dormino and Nina Viviana Cangialosi.
A thick list of collaborations, which touch more than 18 countries around the world, from London to Dublin, from Greenland to Paris, Knoxville, Berlin, Moscow, SanDiego, and the Faroe Islands.

My first work called "The Bush" is a fairy concept album with 25 original songs and more than 60 international guests, a book and a contemporary fable that I wrote, arranged and produced as independent artist, getting reviews with honors from Italian and international magazines.
"A debut that like the catalog of a record label of dreams, hosts internationally renowned musicians and boasts as icing on the cake collaboration with Mandy Parnell, mastering engineer of Bjork, Feist, Sigur Ros, Max Richter, The XX, and Addi 800, mixing engineer of Blur, Sigur Ros, Bjork, Olafur Arnalds. "The Bush" is the song of a multifaceted creature with multiple heads, moving confidently in familiar territories to those who love the music of Jónsi & Alex in "Ava's Cheesefield", but also of Antony and the Johnsons, toned in sauce rock in "All The Days". It evokes Björk, as initial "The Dawn", and the entire "The Bush" swings gracefully between electronics, post rock and chamber music from the far north, with a strong and characteristic cinematic mood. Definitely we have a unique product and project in our hands.“
(Rolling Stone Italia)
"A notion of non-fiction elates around Diego Buongiorno, this project, “The Bush” is a controlling arrangement of a magnitude of instruments. A project that commands a full attention, written within notes a movie worthy of a Hollywood accolade. Each moment of the twenty five tracks, yes, twenty five have your every emotion, your every sin, enveloped in wanting, a wanting of more."
(Independent Music News, UK)
Intermediate form of the project "The Bush" was "My Heartis a Forest," the results entered in the 2013 season of the prestigious Romaeuropa Festival, produced by myself in collaboration with DNA Concerti; a result that led 18 of the 60 musicians and artists involved in the album to perform in a fascinating exhibition at the Teatro Palladium in Rome recorded a sold out.
"A performance that creates a dreamlike and intense universe on stage, built from a multimedia crossbreeding of orchestral, vocal, electronic, performative, exhibition and video-artistic interpretations. The music introduce Icelander suggestions with a Sigur Rós shape, electronic touches Lippok-style, and some drones that follow Tim Hecker’s new experimentations in a whole penetrating atmosphere."
(Drome Magazine)
The third and final chapter of the saga was "When We DreamWe Are All Creators", an art-exhibition/concert accompanied by the release of two albums: an EP of 8 new songs, and a live album of the event. A multi sense performance in which it is presented the whole imagery of my earlier work, with all the visual productions of this original contemporary fable.
A mysterious and immersive acoustic live, which portrays my music and collaborations with Italian actress Carolina Crescentini, Giulia Bevilacqua, Claudia Pandolfi and Tea Falco.
A container of all the visuals shot by directors like Ivan Friedman, Henry Jun Wah Lee, Fabrizio Cestari, Edmondo Angelelli, Matteo Linguiti, Veronica Mengoli, Brando De Sica, Andrea Sisson, Thor Saevarsson & Harpa Einarsdottir.
"Gesamtkunstwerk, the total work, seems to be the only word that can describe the deployment of forces and the involvement of artists taken from any field to achieve a total immersion in a dreamland."
