@alexeyvolkovofficial questions what side is above through unchained painful rhythms and modernly packed 80’s industrial ethics with “Monotonic Impermanence”.

Masterly managing to fuse flesh-cutting percussion through meticulous soundscapes and robust chainsaw basslines. Up is down and down is up in these severe compositions where you can count on nothing but relentlessness. Authentically finished by two heavyweights by the name of Simon Crab / @crab (Bourbonese Qualk) and Slow White Fall / @oliverho13.

released December 12th, 2022

Alexey Volkov | Monotonic Impermanence [clips]

Semionauta, the latest pseudonym of Giordano Fiacchini, is an artist, musician, and researcher in the field of multimedia arts. Over the last decade, he has explored multiple approaches to sound, from abstract experiments in Sound Design and Noise Music to real-time composition.

His artistic practice is multifaceted and aimed at providing intense sensory experiences. In addition to performing in clubs, festivals, and contemporary art museums in the United Kingdom and Italy, his work has landed on the rosters of international labels including ooh-Sounds, Different Circles, Nervous Horizon, and HIDE-Productions.

Together with Santa Cecilia they form the duo "Santa Cecilia & Semionauta" creating experiential works that, through music, light design, body, and technology, foster dreamlike spaces and parallel dimensions.

Interdisciplinary collaborations with artists from diverse fields fuel the direction of monumental durational performances, where each practice is explored both dramaturgically and symbolically.

In recent years, the duo’s research has centered on collective memory, revisiting ancient sounds, traditional instruments, and ancestral vocalities to explore the mythical realm of archetypal imagination, juxtaposing ancient memories with contemporary symbols of Mediterranean folklore.

Their debut EP "Tell Me To Sin" was released by Strange Therapy in 2024 and is followed up by “Trascendenze Artificiali: Act I” LP in 2025.
