Alerted to this band via a post by their guitarist Flavio De Giusti on the ProgPower USA unofficial FB page. They have a new album "The Hungry Heart" coming out later in 2021, but went and checked out their 2017 "The Ocean" and think folks who like melodic Pain of Salvation or Anathema or Riverside might dig these guys...
From their website:
"smalltape is the solo project by musician and sound designer Philipp Nespital. In 2011 his first solo album "CIRCLES" was released. After producing a piece for orchestra and band called “One life“ in 2014, he started to work on his second album “THE OCEAN“ which was released in 2017 and much celebrated by the progressive rock and art rock scene.
...On stage the music of smalltape is performed by Philipp Nespital (vocals, keys, guitars), Alexandra Praet (bass, keys, backing vocals), Flavio De Giusti (guitars, backing vocals), Diego Caetano (drums) and Omri Abramov (tenor saxophone, EWI).
Supporting the US-American art rock band Bent Knee on their tour and playing in front of an amazed audience at the Night of the Prog Festival 2018 and the 2Days Prog + 1 Festival in Veruno/Italy the group has proved that smalltape surpassed the state of being an insider tip..."
