Cryomancer
A sonic journey oscillating between sidereal coldness and an intimate, introspective warmth.
Cryomancer unfolds as a work capable of transporting the listener into dreamlike and distant realms. From the arcane power of ice and its echoes to the hypnotic dance of biblical characters and Asimov’s far-flung worlds, each track marks a step where minimalism and intense rhythms interweave to narrate an exploration of self and the unknown. The electronic soundscapes, at times glacial, at others laden with ancestral pulses, outline a path that extends from the cosmic darkness of black holes to oneiric escapes on nocturnal trains and the dawn of an arctic sun. It all concludes and finally spills over into an electronic, rarefied blues, letting emerge a sense of detachment and wonder in the face of interior and distant universes, enveloped in an austere elegance.
1. “Cryomancer”
A silence that shatters into an icy tremor, while rarefied sounds emerge like frost crystals. It’s the breath of an ancient power that freezes emotions and envelops the listener in a white void, where time is suspended and cold reigns supreme.
2. “Archetype”
In the discipline of minimalist beats, shadows and primordial symbols rise. The echo of a collective unconscious ripples across the sonic surface, guiding us on a vertical journey into the core of mysterious archetypes, where each rhythm becomes a path of ascension.
3. “Salomè”
A sensual pulse cradles the hypnotic dance of an ancient queen who demands her desire. Electronic sounds surround the fervent breath of a secret passion, while Salomè’s figure hovers, enigmatic and magnetic.
4. “Pulsatilla”
A techno-trance rhythm that strips away illusions like withered petals. Fragments of personal memories fracture into flashes of light, while a flower opens and closes in a kaleidoscopic agony: the viewer witnesses the deceptive disappearance of hope.
5. “Solaria”
A sonic landscape emerges slowly, as though steeped in a dawn of sidereal vapors. Suddenly, ancestral percussion breaks through, opening bursts of vitality in a solitary world—the same Asimov envisioned in “The Naked Sun”—where humanity faces infinite distances on a planet called Solaria.
6. “Savannah”
A piercing electronic embrace, propelled by relentless percussion, stretches over a horizon reminiscent of wild, arid lands. Here, tropical heat flips into a surreal chill, where primordial roots of nature intertwine with a cosmic sense of dread.
7. “The Cave”
A cold void fills with deep echoes, slow droplets resounding among stalactites and stalagmites. The cave becomes an inner refuge, where layers of rock resonate with remorse and hope, cradling the soul in a protective silence, sheltered from the outside chaos.
8. “The Black Hole”
An electronic vortex pulsing like a cosmic heart, pulling you into a dark, boundless abyss. Dense rhythms evoke a psychedelic energy, while the unrelenting gravity of a black hole devours every sound in a cosmic storm that spares no one.
9. “Last Train”
An engine roaring through the night, splintering the silence with merciless flashes of light beyond the window. The techno relentlessly advances, as the last train rushes along tracks of rapid pulses, hurtling through distance and fear.
10. “Violet”
A frozen blues unfolds in the air as a polar sun gradually rises through the mist. Also inspired by PZArtist’s work “Viola,” the piece illuminates the horizon with slivers of light, painting a silent dawn in deep purple across a remote world.
