Biography

Switzerland (1999 – present)

Electro-ambient with a hint of . Founded in Switzerland in 1999 by Alessandro Zampieri.

Stendeck is an electronic act bouncing between ambient parts, distorted beats and noisy keys with the presence of acoustic instruments opening warm landscapes to the listener’s ears.

The name Stendeck is a variation of STENDEC, the final strange Morse code radio message sent by the plane Star Dust on August 2 1947 before its mysterious disappearance.

The meaning of the term STENDEC is still unknown, and has been interpreted in many ways.

One string of theories explains STENDEC to be one of a number of acronyms like “Starting En-Route Descent” or “Severe Turbulence Encountered Now Descending Emergency Crash-Landing”, but none of these acronyms can be reliably documented for the era.

    I've just looked again - Through Tiny Windows We Wonder Constellations (4:41) is over 4 minutes long, I've heard 45 seconds of it, and I'm STILL showing under "Listening Now" as scrobbling it - STILL, but my history registers it as a full-length play. WFT?

    Does anyone else have problems scrobbling Stendeck tunes? Even if it's my choice (i.e. "Stendeck Radio"), the tunes play about 45 SECONDS, and then skip to another artist! It's only for Stendeck's songs, but they register as a complete play - showing that I've played the entire track. What's going on here?

    This is simply, emotional, chillout music. Nothing original, but very nice.

    Alessandro, let me attest my respects to you for your mesmerizing live-set in Rostov-on-Don (Russia) last Saturday! Me and my friends came there from Krasnodar (~300 km) specially to experience that "cosmic trip" provided by your inimitable sound. Thank you for photo with me and your 2 encore tracks! Rgrds.
