Omasta live in Cella Monte

Experience Omasta live on August 30th

Omasta is a musical project primarily focused on dark ambient, drone, and experimental electronic music, often incorporating field recordings and themes of isolation, decay, and the subconscious. Their work frequently evokes atmospheric soundscapes and utilizes extended compositions to create immersive listening experiences.

The concert is scheduled to take place at the Cimitero di Cella Monte (Cemetery of Cella Monte) in Cella Monte, Italy on August 30th, 2026. This cemetery is notable for its unique arrangement of over 300 plaster statues depicting life-sized figures of family members resting on their beds, created between 1984 and 2011 by sculptor Francesco Levi. The sculptures were commissioned by local families as a distinctive alternative to traditional tombstones.

The cemetery’s unusual aesthetic stems from a desire to portray the deceased not in death, but as if they are peacefully sleeping in their own homes. The site has gained international recognition for its artistic and cultural significance, attracting visitors interested in both funerary art and unconventional memorials. The setting's inherent atmosphere is likely to significantly influence the performance’s reception given Omasta’s established musical style.
