Beyond the Shape is a project by the italian musician and composer Gianvittorio Fallace. The project, born in 2019, has the precise idea of asking a fundamental question on the theme of "shape". Gianvittorio Fallace began his musical career as a guitarist and singer. He plays in several local bands and writes songs with a strong rock influence. Although his studies are purely classical (a cornerstone of his musical ideology), he has undergone various influences over the years, from rock to punk to guitar fingerstyle, up to electronic music. In 2017 he composed his first entirely electronic piece, Delirio, and two years later he began his journey in the music scene as Beyond the Shape with two singles: Open and Soliloquio.

Another point of his musical culture is represented by folk and ethnic music, which became the folk band AlmaTerra popolare, of which he is a founding member, singer, guitarist, arranger. Over Almaterra and italian folk music, he loves to take those elements and merge them with electronic music. Indeed Fallace's love for the ethnic music is visibile also in Beyond the Shape project, expecially the oriental culture from which it takes several elements. One of the result of the shape question and oriental elements is his new single Gongturbation, which he says is "a trip at the discovery of ourselves, of our inner thoughts, our turbation" throught the vibes of a tibetan gong.

Another, but not least, element of his poetics is the narration throught sound. Each element of his compositions represent a precise part of the narration inside the sound. There is a genesis in the process of creating a song, a piece, wich very precise. It bons as a thought far away and grows, evolves, changes and matures to come to an end. The narration in the composition of Gianvittorio Fallace and Beyond the Shape works exactly this way, using the sound and his elements to express itself, to tell a story.

All of this is Beyond the Shape.
