Zona Utopica Garantita (abbr. ZUG) is a 2019 musical project born from the join of Frasco (Bloodygrave & Die Lust, SPO) and Jules (Cronaca e Preghiera, Nono) forming a Punk Electronic collective, that springs a vital live playing over electronic sequences. The joining of Danilo Fatur (CCCP Fedeli alla Linea) with his charisma, experience and poetry and, on synthesizers Misha (2020-2023) and Mystic Valley stabilize the band with a solid musical esthetic, direct and radical. ZUG’s music is a marriage between the machine-gunned punk of CCCP and the Body Music of the teutonic DAF, with his own poetry and experimental attitude. [Discogs] The album features a compelling selection of remixes by kindred spirits in the underground electronic scene. Kris Baha, SIIE, Unconscious, JG Outsider, and A State of Flux each bring a unique lens to Decrow’s original tracks, reshaping them into hypnotic, club-ready incarnations that pulse with fresh intensity. Complementing the reworks are three brand new compositions that showcase Decrow’s continued growth as a producer and sonic storyteller. These tracks expand his signature sound – deeply atmospheric, rhythmically intricate, and emotionally charged – proving that his restless imagination knows no bounds. These tracks were created and recorded by Najah and Dasz between 2018 and 2023 in various locations between Belgium and France and were mixed and mastered in Brussels in 2023 by Hubert Monroy. “Disappear” is about absence, obsolescence, both on a personnal level and on a civilisational scale, solitude and the big black hole of internet and social medias, the inevitable loss of our friends and our loves, the theft of our freedom and our souls. Still in the realm of moody synth-pop, the duet doesn’t hesitate to experiment with bass music, dub, country and every melancholic subgenres of pop culture. |
