CIGNO - Buonanotte Berlinguer

Cigno is an emerging artist from Rome, delving into the depths of dark ambient, industrial, and ritualistic music. Drawing inspiration from ancient traditions, somber atmospheres, and the emotional landscape of grief and mourning, Cigno crafts a soundscape that is both haunting and captivating.

"Morte e Pianto Rituale" is Cigno's debut album, a work steeped in the themes of death and ritual mourning. The album weaves together layers of deep ambient sounds, atmospheric drones, and percussive elements to create an immersive experience. It stands as a meditation on the solemnity of death, the cycles of loss, and the catharsis found in ritual. Each track builds an evolving soundscape, incorporating elements like field recordings, drone tones, and tribal percussion. Cigno's music invokes an almost cinematic quality, resembling a sonic ritual that guides listeners through the emotional states of grief, introspection, and release.

CIGNO
Nada! Nada! Nada!

The ten tracks on the album struggle to fit into the category of pop music and even more so they shy away from the commonly understood song form. “Nada! Nada! Nada!” it is a complex ecosystem where disturbing trip rock coexists with ethnic impulses and mystical moments. Heartbreaking screams punctuated by hypotonic percussion loops, industrial suites full of saturated distortions are then alternated with diabolical chants. Almost a sound psychoanalysis of contemporary society, almost the soundtrack of a Dante's song. CIGNO increases the dose with visionary texts, where he paints frescoes of contemporaneity between a socio-political and economic criticism of the West, up to ascetic verses whispered and sung recited.
Anarchic and against the current, CIGNO's artistic proposal also passes through the cover which symbolically depicts the heretic. The engraving represents the symbol of the human condition.
