The
origins of the group go back to 1995. Flavio and Andrea work in
the same company and, making acquaintance, they discover of having
a common passion for the same musical kinds. Andrea, at the same
time, attends one musical studio in its country, managed from
Cristian, an old friend. On June, 9th 1995 in this studio happens
the encounter that will give life to the musical project and to
the group of the Quasars. Flavio writes the lyrics of the song
"The Prophet" and tries to sing it. The song takes body
more and more and, after some modifications in the following
months, it becomes in absolute the first song produced by Quasars.
A few times later, Cristian detach himself
from this project to follow its dance music project while
Flavio and Andrea begin to compose during the spare time. Flavio
sings the songs and Andrea executes the orchestral parts, making
use of a polyphonic keyboard acquired from Cristian. Only in 2000
all our efforts are concretized with the completion of our first
album "Empty Spaces". In one of the songs of Empty
Spaces also participates Giovanni, a dear friend and collaborator
of the band, performing some parts of electric guitar. On April
2000 Giovanni becomes to all the effects the third member of the
group like guitarist and bass player. Common opinion of the group
is that one to continue to compose and
produce subsequently a new album. In 2008
was completed "Lightears", our second album,
whose not easy realization has been largely wanted from the group.

Listening
to the new album "Lightears", it results enough evident
our musical evolution toward more traditional sonorities, less
technological, but equally refined. This is an album that we
strongly feel ours and of which we are proud, because also with the
thousand met difficulties (due to the changed personal situations of
someone of we), well represents our actual potentialities, strong of
eight years of experience in more regarding the first album "Empty
Spaces". We have quite preferred "to freeze" for a
sure period the working of the album for being able to resume it
later on and to dedicate to it all the time necessary, so as to to
avoid banal and random conclusions.

Now
we will take a small pause to relax ourselves, to reflect on the developed job
and on our actual situation . But the adventure of the Quasars will not be
stopped here!. The targets change, but not the passion and the enthusiasm
to continue to say something through the language of music. Our
productions are born and they come definitively performed in studio, where
irregularly during the spare time we find ourselves. For our choice, we do not
execute live concerts. We carry out this activity only and exclusively for
passion and not for profit. At the moment we invite you to listen to this album. From
your critics or encouragements something of new will be born once again... As
always... Best regards to everybody... See you soon.
Flavio, Andrea and Giovanni
Our music -
The Space Rock
Musical
labeling has become more and more vague and arbitrary, especially in the world
of pop and rock. New sub-genres continually emerge as different styles combine
to create unique new styles. Here we look
at the variation of rock called "spacerock" in which, despite the
title, most works are not directly inspired by "real" space. Enough
of them are, however, to warrant inclusion of the genre here. Our "Space
Rock" is strongly influenced by the British psychedelic style of the late
60s and it also includes contributions from the 1970's Progressive Rock period
and from Heavy Metal. There is also a lot
of overlap with '70/'80 's electronic space music. The result is a
music style, in our opinion, rather “vibrating” and original.
