About the Artist

I think music (and art, generally) should always have something "new" to tell... I'm sick of boring, repetitive, obsolete ways of expression... Let's try to make people see what they usually don't... Let's break the stereotypes, let's knock them down......

Embrace the Darkness - Aksyn Elek by Sugo Music - Solea Group
EMBRACE THE DARKNESS By Aksyn Elek With guests Martina Sbarbaro & Silvia Cernicchiaro Classically trained pianist and composer Aksyn Elek (aka Boris Briozzo) has a deep appreciation for the classic masters Bach, Schubert, Schumann and Chopin, to name just a few. Like these groundbreaking forefathers of music he believes that music should always have something new to tell. His Electronica debut recording Embrace the Darkness is such an effort, blending together Intelligent Techno, Dark Psychedelic, House, Downtempo and Electro-pop styles with breakbeats and ambient vocals by Martina Sbarbaro and Silvia Cernicchiaro. When recently interview and asked how he could best sum up this debut recording he replied “it’s a blending of modern and classic...I want to try and make people see what they usually don't”. In a series of late night sessions, "Embrace the Darkness" was recorded in Aksyn's recording studio in Menton, France. The title of the album is based on a poem he wrote "Creature della Notte," a type of ode to darkness, which he says “I consider the darkness a powerful soothing vacuum, which divinely rests our minds and senses, cures our wounds and heals our souls”. Song list: Step Out, Pressure, Just Break Free, Skeptical Observer, S.A.R.A., I Like You, The End, What People Do, Self-Destructive Mind, Embrace the Darkness, Internal Collapse, Recalling the Past, The Cure. MORE ABOUT AKSYN FROM AKSYN: I'm studying law in Genova. I'm a vegeterian and I do believe in macrobiotics. I hate pollution... That's why I trust in an eco-compatible scientific approach and industrial progress, a smart and gentle interpenetration between nature and technology... I'm keen about philosophy and esoterism. Among my favorite writers and thinkers are Dostoevskij, Tolstoij, Heraclitus, Shelling (for his Theory of the Metaphysics of Music) and Nietzsche. Of course, I love music... I've played the piano for 10 years, studied sol-fa and composition at the conservatoire - even if I've always preferred a more personal and intimistic approach with music - and dedicated most of my time to listening to every kind of classical and modern music... As for my other hobbies, I like martial arts, extreme skiing, travelling, writing poetries, watching good films, going out with my girlfriend, computer graphics, night life (not in the clubs/disco, which I don't like at all), technology, virtual worlds experiences, any kind of challenging adventures and, last but not least, my BMW Mini Cooper... ;). My personality? Well, I'm pretty unpredictable and lunatic... I love my good principles as much as to stay on my own, or together with a few people... I hate noisy crowdy places... I think too much; this sometimes makes me psychologically weak and sensorially introvert, yet my will does not resent at all of this fragility... I'm the 'romantic type': I do believe in a rare divine kind of love… Source: www.sugomusic.com/aksynelek.html
