about

Consisting of ten tracks, each one inspired by a different painting, “Scenes From the Sublime” is an ode to beauty, the unfathomable and the minds capable of channeling the sublime. A captivating yet unsettling contemplative aural experience that guides the listener through dense dystopian atmospheres granting oneiric visions of delicate grandeur and otherworldly scenarios transcending time and space. This journey features collaborations by Alphaxone, Dødsmaskin, Leila Abdul-Rauf, Mount Shrine, Phelios, Phragments, Shrine, Xerxes The Dark, George Zafiriadis from Martyria and Yann Hagimont from Cober Ord.
Available in High Resolution Audio 24-bit FLAC.

europaeculturaelettronica.blogspot.com/2020/03/neraterr-scenes-from-sublime-recensioni.html
- "Più che commentare semplicemente i vari quadri, ci rende partecipi del loro significato più profondo. La musica del compositore spezzino diventa così una sorta di portale che collega il mondo percepito a quello spirituale. In questo modo l'ascoltatore ha la sensazione di entrare dentro il quadro, vivendone gli stati d'animo e i significati più reconditi, tra ermetismo e fenomenologia dello spirito. Un viaggio verso i misteri dell'anima umana, che si tramuta in un immersione dentro se stessi"

www.rosaselvaggia.com/recens.dischi_03_20.htm
- "Antoni è un artista di prima grandezza nonostante la giovane età";
- "È più appropriato parlare di pittura e scultura sonora, in quanto il suono è davvero scolpito e ogni suo elemento riesce a destare stupore per la sua raffinatezza, come quando si esaminano i dettagli di una celebre statua e ci si chiede come sia stato possibile arrivare ad un tale livello di perfezione";
- "Non c’è sufficiente spazio, anche se si dovrebbe eccome, per parlare di ogni singolo brano e di come si rifletta perfettamente nel dipinto in questione"

- "Het idee is geweldig, de uitwerking prachtig. Ondanks de vele verschillende invloeden – van renaissance tot surrealisme – weet Alessio Antoni hier een eenvormig werk te bieden dat van begin tot einde weet te boeien. Neraterræ neemt je mee op een kosmische trip doorheen de kunstgeschiedenis, en je zal niet rouwig zijn als je op de uitnodiging ingaat"

www.versacrum.com/vs/2020/04/neraterrae-scenes-from-the-sublime.html
- "Le sonorità sono sempre nel solco di una musica isolazionista e nera come la pece, figlia del miglior Lustmord";
- "'The Collapse of Matter and Time', ispirata a Salvador Dalì, è pura arte surrealista"

www.mesenceintesfontdefaut.com/2020/03/27/recommandation-neraterrae-scenes-from-the-sublime
- "Une immersion riche dont le concept sort agréablement de l’ordinaire";
- "Tout comme lorsque nous observons une toile, les détails se révèlent peu à peu et ils peuvent surgir même après l’avoir regardé des dizaines de fois. Le cas est tout à fait similaire avec les créations dantesques de NERATERRÆ, libre à vous d’y plonger aussi souvent que vous le souhaitez"

sowhatmusica.wordpress.com/2020/03/31/neraterrae-scenes-from-the-sublime
- "Un viaggio sonoro affascinante tra vibranti visioni in bilico tra cielo e terra, accomunate da un senso di indissolubile terrificante stupore"

igloomag.com/reviews/neraterrae-scenes-from-the-sublime-cyclic-law
- "The music delivered here is one solid exploration in subterranean micro-genres which navigate through deeply ominous blackened drones to ambient isolationism and eerie ambient soundscapes that float and oscillate into one infernal void"

christianmontagna.blogspot.com/2020/04/neraterr-scenes-from-sublime-cyclic-law.html
- "L'andamento sonoro dipinto da Alessio Antoni piega le nostre volontà e le divora nel buio, senza nessuna esitazione. Il manifestarsi di 'Scenes From The Sublime', lento e penetrante, non si può assolutamente fermare durante lo scorrere dei minuti"

www.benzinemag.net/2020/06/05/neraterrae-scenes-from-the-sublime
- "A la fois lettré, sensuel et cultivé, Neraterrae impose une musique ambitieuse, complexe et mouvante";
- "Même si la torpeur gagne du terrain tout au long de Scenes From The Sublime, on est gagné par ce sentiment paradoxal de baigner dans la lueur d’une heure argentée";
- "Alessio Antoni s’empare de la vision de ses aînés et entre de plein pied dans ces tableaux, il anticipe même le geste du pinceau"

opduvel.com/2020/05/05/neraterrae-scenes-from-the-sublime

- "Οι κανόνες τού δημιουργού Alessio Antoni με το Scenes From the Sublime που παρουσιάζεται σήμερα και έχει ήδη κυκλοφορήσει, σπάνε κάθε όριο της φαντασίας μου";
- "Ο Alessio τολμά εδώ κάτι πολύ δύσκολο. Κοντράρει τον εαυτό του στον ύψιστο βαθμό τέχνης. Πειραματίζεται και βγαίνει πιο δημιουργικός παρά ποτέ στο ολοσκόταδο"

www.fluxwebzine.it/en/neraterrae-scenes-from-the-sublime
