Black Metal ist Krieg

About Me


Orkid grew up surrounded by transformable robots and Japanese kaiju monsters in a nondescript town near Milan. After spending some years among guitars, drums, screams and jumps, he decided to start to synthesize his own world, starting his personal trip. On the wrong lane. Final aim is the perfect synthesis, but the way is still way ahead. He lives in continuous and constant inspiration, stealing sounds that he later reproduces and process; ok, he just twists a lot of knobs. What he?s after is the color in the sound, and the multiform image. Fool. He stretches sound, contracts it, making it oscillating in melody until it falls down by itself, like a feather. He even has a degree but you wouldn?t tell it. His love for faders and colored buttons brought him to study as an Audio Engineer, and despite this he lives surrounded by constant noise. You wouldn't like him to give you a lift anywhere. He fights with harmony and distortion, always looking for the perfect alchemy. He rarely gets even close.
