Cryo [VINYL]

"Cryo" is the debut album by the duo of Greek cellist Nikos Veliotis and Swedish pianist Alex Zethson. Veliotis is best known for the pioneering electronic band In Trance 95, MMMD, and his collaboration with Giannis Aggelakas of the rock band Tripes. Zethson is a member of bands such as Goran Kajfes' Tropiques, Angles, Fire! Orchestra, Vathres, and more. The duo met in Athens when Tropiques played at the legendary record store, gallery, and music venue Underflow, where Veliotis was invited for an opening solo set. The next day, the duo entered the Athens studio Artracks and created "Cryo", consisting of two long pieces in which the duo explores slow shapes and waves of sound, the piano's lower register creating rumbling clouds and shimmering harmonics into which the cello blends and transforms. Together, they crafted organically undulating, intense, heavy, and dark drone music. The album was meticulously mastered by Mell Dettmer, who has collaborated with drone metal bands like Earth and Sun O))).
