Behind the Techno (Raw / Deep / Hypnotic) : Release Notes
In Chapter VI of the Lykos epic, the destinies of two majestic cities from the VII century B.C., Rome and Alba Longa, intertwined in a confrontation that soon transformed into a titanic battle. This epic clash, extended into a long and bloody war, laid the foundations of a precarious balance, leaving both powers in a deadlock. The rulers of the two cities, the noble King Tullus Hostilius of Rome and the proud King Mettius Fufetius of Alba Longa, aware of the devastation the war had wrought, decided to end the conflict. To avoid further bloodshed, they appointed two groups of representatives to decide the outcome of the dispute. For Rome, the Horatii (Orazi), three brothers of noble lineage and sons of Publius Horatius, and for Alba Longa, the three Curiatii (Curiazi) twins, prepared for an epic duel with swords as the instrument of judgment. Similarly, in the world of artists, a similar confrontation took shape. Two divergent visions, two contrasting yet somehow akin masteries collided. Laertes, a veteran with legendary exploits, and Worg, a young tribunus militum rich in fervor, joined forces. Amidst meetings, exchanges of ideas, and deep respect, a new chapter in their artistic history was born. This EP, like the conflict between Rome and Alba Longa, presents itself as an eclectic collection of tracks. Its musical narrative reflects the epic battle of the 7th century B.C. The vinyl, divided into side α and β, juxtaposes the reflective and tribal depth of deep-techno (side β) with the visceral, physical, and dancefloor-oriented aspect of techno (side α). Side α immerses the listeners imagination within the battle with Vincitori and Vinti. In Vincitori, Laertes and Worg converge their skills into mammoth atmospheres, syncopated rhythms, and metallic percussion, bringing a clash of blades to life through sharp synths and a groove reminiscent of the thunder of war horses. The former presents in Vinti a majestic metallic melody, evoking, the roar of battle and the glittering sword strokes and slashes hurled at iron shields. The side β opening with Alba Longa, it evokes the ancient city through sinuous and seductive choirs, sound textures reminiscent of tribal ceremonies, and rhythms of ancient tribes. With Trigemini, the ritual intensifies, featuring frenzied metallic percussion and synths that evoke wild lands and primordial civilizations. Thus, both in mythical antiquity and contemporary techno, the confrontation between powers and visions leads to the creation of an epic chapter, carved in vinyl and the legends of the times. • Homo Homini Lupus • Tracklist: αI.
