TORBA (EX SOFT MOON)
All’anagrafe Luigi Pianezzola, originario di Bassano del Grappa, da sempre attratto dalla produzione musicale, con esperienze in I Am Titor, Bruuno e come membro principale nei The Soft Moon, Torba fonda le sue radici nel lato oscuro del post-punk, dark wave e industrial. Nato come esperimento durante il lockdown e come valvola creativa per Pianezzola, che in quel periodo stava registrando per altri artisti, Torba realizza brani di elettronica spigolosa che attingono dal punk, dall’industrial e dalla club music.
Torba vede il tempo trascorso con Jose Luis Vasquez come una fonte d’ispirazione: “Ha cambiato tutto per me: suonare con The Soft Moon e conoscere Luis. Ha condiviso davvero molto, voleva che ci sentissimo una famiglia e una band, più che semplici musicisti in tour. Mi ha aperto la mente perché non si preoccupava della musica in sé. Gli importava delle emozioni e dell’energia connesse, non degli aspetti tecnici, e questo l’ho imparato da lui.”
VARSOVIE (FR)
Between post-punk and dark-rock, VARSOVIE is created in 2005 in Grenoble (France) by Arnault Destal (drums, lyrics, music, art direction) and Grégory Catherina (vocals, guitars, music). Since 2005, the band has released 5 albums + 2 EP and played live several times all over Europe.

SUNPOCRISY
Overwhelming, stellar and progressive post-mental eargasm: a multi-layered dichotomy between superb melodic sections & roaring wall of sound.
THE END OF 6000 YEARS
The End Of Six Thousand Years was formed in 2004 as a five-piece scattered all over Italy. After releasing a 3-songs demo in 2005 and a split with the american act Embrace The End in 2006, T.E.O.S.T.Y. quickly gain a cult status in the underground scene publishing “Isolation” (2008), flawlessly blending swedish death metal, black metal, crust and post rock influences. In 2012 comes the second effort “Perpetuum”, a darker and more atmospheric approach to their trademark sound. 2013 sets off the beginning of a nearly 10 years long hiatus. In 2020 the band slowly starts over with a new line up consisting of 3 founding members with the addition of Michele Basso ( VISCERA/// , Formalist , Hypershape Records ) and Gianmaria Mustillo ( HIEROPHANT, Carnero, Abaton) both taking care of the vacant guitars duty. The revamped line up brings forth a new EP consisting of 3 songs as well as a cover of the influential american noise band Today Is The Day. T.E.O.S.T.Y.’s latest opus sounds rawer, more aggressive and dissonant than ever. During their various runs across Europe T.E.O.S.T.Y. shared the stage with The Ocean, Cursed, Mouth of the Architect, Dead To Fall and Martyr AD.
ROPES INSIDE A HOLE
Hailing from Bologna, RIAH (Ropes Inside A Hole) plays emotional postmetal. In November 2018 AUTUMNALIA has been published for the American label Fluttery Records.
The sophomore album “A Man And His Nature”, will feature external musicians for the cello, the violin, the synth, the saxophone and most important the voice of Daniel Loefgren from Suffocate For Fuck Sake, with which the band is planning to continue the collaboration by making the band a collective between Italy and Sweden.
The album produced by dunk!pressing and released by Voice of the Unheard record had an excellent response from the public, becoming the third favorite album by users of the albumoftheyear.com web site in the post metal genre for the year 2023 and Top 10 Best Albums of 2023 for the WherePostRockDwells community.
REVERIE
I Reverie nascono nel 2019, tra Forlì e Bologna, come band screamo/post hc caratterizzata da suoni cupi e riff violenti. Nel 2022 esce il primo disco “Everything repeats itself forever” che fa un po' da apripista a diversi live in giro per l’Italia. Dopo un periodo di pausa, dovuto ad alcuni cambi di line up, siamo tornati a suonare a pieno regime e abbiamo rilasciato uno split coi Put Pùrana il 24 gennaio.

APOLLO BROWN (DETROIT, US)
Talented artists can make what appears to be impossible look easy. It’s in this rarefied air where you’ll find Detroit’s Apollo Brown, constantly conjuring fresh innovations out of a tried-and-true formula. For the last decade, the artist has singularly re-defined and expanded the foundation of what boom bap production can sound like in the 21st Century.
Originally from Grand Rapids in West Michigan, Apollo Brown is a hip-hop producer based in Detroit. In the tradition of left-field beatmakers like the great J Dilla and Madlib, Brown is a man of many influences, with a sound that owes as much to the yacht rock of Seals & Crofts as it does to classic R&B, pulling from all corners of the music world to craft beats that are as interesting musically as they are rhythmically. His vast discography includes guest-filled projects, instrumental albums, and full- length collaborations with MCs such as Big Pooh, Che' Noir, Guilty Simpson, Joell Ortiz, Locksmith, O.C., Philmore Greene, Planet Asia, Raheem DeVaughn, Ras Kass, Stalley, Skyzoo, and many more. Brown has also participated in the hip-hop groups The Left and Ugly Heroes. While Brown started making beats as a bedroom producer in 1996, it wasn’t until he moved to Detroit and became part of the city’s hip-hop scene that he really began to make a name for himself with his production skills on his first beat albums. In 2009, Brown won the Detroit Red Bull Big Tune Championships, and later that year the producer signed on with Mello Music Group. Under the label, Apollo released a body of work that lives up to the legacy of the head-nodding, screwface-inducing, soul-replenishing lineage of Primo and Pete Rock, J Dilla and Large Professor, Mobb Deep and DJ Muggs. This is the tradition that Apollo Brown triumphantly upholds, conceiving, beat by beat, an East Coast sound with a midwestern mentality, hard and nasty drums that blends sadness, depression, and tenderness. It’s fall music, somber relatable music, gray sky music that offers the unvarnished truth. These aren’t beats impersonally e-mailed across the continent from producer-to-MC. On every album bearing the Apollo Brown alias, the artists create songs in the same room, bouncing ideas and concepts off each another until the final product is a masterpiece. Everyone from Danny Brown to Chance The Rapper, Freddie Gibbs to Masta Ace, Black Milk to Oddisee, and Westside Gun, have spit bars over his beats. The explanation why is pretty simple. If you still have any doubts, all you need to do is press play.
MARCO POLO (NYC, US)
Don't let the name fool you. Producer Marco Polo is more time traveler than explorer. In the past decade, this T.O. native has been transporting listeners to an alternate dimension, somewhere between the 90s and the present. Marco, born Marco Bruno, who started making music in 1999 after buying an MPC with student loan money. The MPC and a pack of Newports as his sole accomplices, Marco made a bold move to NYC in 2001. As an assistant Engineer at renowned recording studio, The Cutting Room, MP honed technical skills and got to know some of the rap game’s finest. The Marco Polo production credit quickly began to hold more weight, with production credits with legends such as Rakim, Westside Gunn,Scarface, Phaorahe Monch, Talib kweli, Masta Ace, Sean Price. MP’s discog of features, collaborations and solo projects grew steadily, leading to the 2007 release of the critically acclaimed “Port Authority.” This debut production album – featuring a who’s-who of MC heavyweights including Large Professor, Kool G Rap and Buckshot – was a career milestone that claimed his place as one of the new school’s most respected beatmakers. The production credits continue to grow and MP has been touring the world. He is expanding his creative horizons into the world of licensing, landing some noteworthy soundtracks, including “Kick-Ass 2”. His original production was selected as the official theme song for the Brooklyn Nets on the YES network . Up next Masta Ace x Marco Polo 3rc LP coming 2025.
