Welcome to my Structure

About Me

New Songs Online!The Arkitecht is a one-man band created by Genaro Ochoa in Mexico City. The idea of the project is to be non-dependable on other musicians to accomplish a "band" sound. It is a blend of all the metal and progressive sub-genres I like and thus resulting in an intrincated combination of styles.This year will see the light of The Arkitecht's fisrt album called "Hyperstructure". The Album was recorded in my homestudio in Mexico and was mixed and mastered by Brett Caldas-Lima at Tower Studio in Montpellier, France.I'm currently searching for the right person to make the artwork and for a worldwide distribuitor.Enjoy!

Band Members: Vocals Dante is the frontman, singer and one of the two song writers of War Kabinett. He is the main singer in Hyperstructure. Due to his versatility he was able to sing from very extreme death metal sections to very calm prog rock passages. Vocals Alvaro is involved in a ton of projects ranging from Regaeton, Pop and Hip-hop to Electronic music. He sings, plays guitars and bass, and produces music in his homestudio. He is the second singer on Hyperstructure, mainly singing on the progressive rock parts. Guitar Solos Cesar is a young, yet accomplished, guitar player from Pachuca, Mexico. He is a YouTube phenomenon and is currently finishing the last details of his first solo album “Cesar Huesca”. He recorded most of the guitar solos in Hyperstructure, giving his very distinctive touch to the music. Lyrics A young writer, editor and script writer. Lila is the main lyricist in Hyperstructure. She worked very closely with Genaro to accomplish a solid storytelling while remaining musical and poetic. The man behind the project. Genaro recorded all guitars and keyboards, programmed the drums, the bass and the orchestra. He is the producer of the album and, in conjunction with Lila, he wrote the lyrics.Ivan Lopez and Andres Gonzalez (both, very talented drummers) helped with the drum sequencing, contribuiting mostly with fills and a more real life drumming perspective.
Influences: Hyperstructure It is the story of the enlightenment of a common man. He seeks for an answer, he looks for redemption. It is a mental journey through the very issues that have brought the planet to a transcendental point in history. If we, and all the life in this planet, are to survive, it is up to us, but first we must understand the task we are to accomplish. The music sets the course of the journey in six chapters (six songs). Every song addresses a different side of the subject with a unique mood, yet they all work as an integral suite. Face Thief This song is a Symphonic Death Metal Epic, lasting a little over 32 minutes. The story is a thriller, a serial killer who surgically removes the face of his victims seeks to bring the life of a gifted artist to its very ashes. The orchestral arrangements emphasize the dramatic development of the events in the fashion of a Hollywood blockbuster.
