    • The Love Lords: "Demons & Pearls"
      "We are back in the 80s, back in the cold war, back in the times of crazy politicians and War Lords. Time for the resurrection of the Love Lords!"

      The Band

      Songs from the deepest soul. Against the cold that is coming up again. Against the aggressors going to war. Against the untruth. And there is only this one force that can be drawn into this monstrous field.
      Love Lords against War Lords in an epic clash whose outcome will decide a future of darkness or light.

      The album: "Demons & Pearls" (release 2022)

      "Demons & Pearls" is a tribute to the 80s in the sound of the present.
      A world full of ugliness, but also full of beauty and grace. The first is obvious, you don't have to look for long. The last is shy and fleeting. You have to search for it and hold on to it.

    About Francesco Tortora

    Music is my passion, my inspiration and my elixir of life.

    As a composer and producer, I am passionate about the world of tones and sounds. Every note is an expression of my innermost feelings and ideas.

    My quest for the extraordinary and my attention to detail drive me to constantly explore new avenues, create new soundscapes and continuously evolve. This has resulted in numerous projects of various genres - from orchestral film music to electronic beats - which I have been able to accompany, advise and realize in my more than 30-year career.

    What sets me apart from many composers and producers is my ability to capture the essence of an idea and transform it into music that goes straight to the heart of the listener and ends up sticking in their head!

    Creative Music & Sound Consultant

    My many years of experience have given me another tool. The know-how to convey my knowledge transparently and in such a way that the end result is satisfying for everyone.

    Regardless of whether I am accompanying you through a project as a composer and/or consultant, whether a film requires an atmospheric soundtrack or a brand is looking for a memorable audio logo - I am at your side to make your visions a reality.
    Thanks to my expertise and ability to understand and realize your wishes, there are no limits to our ability to create new worlds of sound.

    Let's start a musical journey together!
