Cabaret Nocturne - blind trust (Ermete Lo Stige remix)

Suzi Sabotage - persona non grata (Ermete Lo Stige remix)

The Tuscan duo was born in recent months from an idea of ​​Ermete Lo Stige (musician and DJ) and Marianna Magni (singer and musician). Both linked by enthusiasm and passion for music, even if they come from different musical backgrounds, they decided to collaborate and create a genre that is basically "Electronic" but able to range and navigate without limits through different types of sounds. : from the '80s style to the minimal wave, from the cold and dark sound of a dark-synth and dark-ambient mold up to touches of techno, electroclash and more electro-pop shades.
Released January 4, 2022
"On my skin, in my veins" the first single by Lo Stige DJ and Scarlet Fever (Italy, 2021). Lyrics and vocals are by Scarlet Fever and were recorded by Francesco "Veleno" Baldi at Sonoria Recording (PO).

So much destruction, so little time

"The Snake represents the cycle of life, death and rebirth, thanks to the process of skin change. In the Native American tribes it was a magical animal, symbol of the medicine of dreams, of the unconscious and of all uncontrollable energies." // "Molt of the Snake" is an introspective journey that will lead you into a visionary world crossed by ambient sounds and synths with a restless soul, but sometimes nostalgic for the sound of the 90s. A return to the origins represented by ouroboro and a constant search for the beat that rides syncopated atmospheres and pungent sounds. Tight rhythms, downtempo and techno, experimentation, without ever putting aside minimalism and the darker side and "wave". Self produced and mixed by Ermete Lo Stige, released by Distrokid February 17, 2023. On track n°8 "REVIENS" lyrics and vocals are by Valérie Hendrich aka Valanaïs, artiste pluridisciplinaire and dear friend from Strasbourg, France.

On August 20th, Ermete Lo Stige reached out to his friend Nino Sable, proposing a collaboration on a track previously different titled. Nino and Ermete had previously worked together in 2021 on a track called "Scars in the Sky." Nino agreed spontaneously to the new project. Nino's initial concept for the song revolved around a character who frequents nightclubs across the country. This character never stays in one place but always takes someone along. Some perceive this character as a kidnapper, while others see him/her as a savior. The idea is that this person attends parties and offers an escape to those who wish to leave their small towns and start anew. After drafting the main storyline, Nino recalled another story from 1995 when he attended the Deutsche Schule zu Porto in Portugal. As a newcomer to the school, he was assigned to a free desk. The desk of a girl who had tragically committed suicide a few weeks earlier. On the desk, she had carved two messages into the wood: "Follow me" and "Down the rabbit hole."

Down the Rabbit Hole (feat. Nino Sable)

Ermete Lo Stige from Tuscany, Italy, is a musician since the '90s, and then a DJ, who has always been fond of underground music and subctultures. He begun with console and clubbing in 2010, in the new wave scene, and in this year he decide to stop playing bass and drums to devote himself exclusively to the activities of DJing and producing. 

His eclectic style is deeply rooted in minimal and eighties sounds, but mixed with many other influences, such as: new beat, downtempo, synthwave, techno, indie dance and dark disco, creating a personal, unique sound, always deeply connected with the dancefloor. The intention of Ermete Lo Stige is to create for listeners an approach to electronic music experienced as culture, a safe moment and a vehicle of sharing: a living art that speaks to the world, that emotions and expresses itself through the body.

He has currently released different works either as solo artist and as a contributor/remixer and he has attended with live and DJ Sets in hundreads of events, and clubs.

The narrative and the evolution of Ermete Lo Stige's artistic path as producer and composer initially created dystopian and experimental worlds, later giving it a more modern edge aimed at the dancefloor. A journey between dark atmospheric and ambient melodies, but with a tendency to go towards a more techno and disco sound. In fact, in 2024, the current year, a new path begins: it has new productions in the pipeline that make a clean break from the past and embrace clubbing in a decisive way.
