Embark on an enchanting journey through a dense and mysterious forest of soundscapes with Ides of March's EP "Reticent," released on Wout Records.

From the very first step into the forest, the title track "Reticent" sets the mood with its haunting, mystical beats and eerie melodies that feel like a misty fog enveloping your senses.

As you wander deeper into the woods, the "Reticent" (Toxism Remix) takes things up a notch with its pulsating basslines and heart-pumping rhythms that feel like the sound of footsteps on the forest floor, urging you to explore even further into the unknown.

But just as you start to feel lost in the labyrinth of sound, "Spotless Soul" guides you with its serene, melodic soundscape that feels like a ray of light piercing through the darkness, illuminating your path and providing a sense of direction.

As you continue your journey, "Spotless Soul" (Doguez Remix) brings the sounds of the jungle into the forest, with its Afro-inspired beats and exotic rhythms, making you feel like you're not alone in the woods, but instead surrounded by the sounds of nature.

Finally, the journey culminates with "Analog Frequencies", a track that feels like the calm after the storm, with its soothing, nostalgic sounds that evoke a sense of reflection and introspection, like a clearing in the forest where you can take a moment to appreciate the journey you've been on.

Overall, the "Reticent" EP is an immersive and captivating experience that leads you through twists and turns, but ultimately brings a sense of clarity.

The concept of Ides of March for Manuel and Pietro sees the light for the first time in 2018 in Amsterdam, where they both are based. The Spanish-Italian duo first met in 2016, and soon found out their common interest in electronic music.

They set their international debut with their first EP "XV-III" for UK's label sequence music in 2020, followed by the single "Corpus" on German imprint Club Mood Vibes. They then released the track Dreamwalking for Mexico City's label ARKHAMRA VA in 2022 and their second EP called "Hyperion" in 2023 on the Ibiza & Tulum based Uxoa Dutxa Elite. 

The sound that this duo brings in their DJ sets and productions spaces from progressive house, to electro, to more melodic and melancholic shades of techno, in a blend characterized by the two's personal taste and musical background. 

Their work has so far been supported by international acts such as Richie Hawtin, Joris Voorn, Axel Haube, Wurtz, The Element, Jos & Eli, Alfa Romero, Paco Osuna, Olivier Weiter, Mitch De Klein, Justrice, Fat Cosmoe and Kadosh among others. Their release "Reticent" on Wout Records caught the eye of David Guetta, who inserted the Toxism Remix of the track Reticent among his favourites in heavy rotation. Their last release "All Is Light" has been published on Amsterdam's Click Records, including a remix from the label's boss Lake Avalon himself.

In July 2021, the duo started their event concept series, @synesthesiamusicart where they shared the stage with artists such as Hollt, Beswerda, Mitch De Klein, Kimman and Echonomist. The aim is to keep evolving, blurring the lines of music genres.
