Gorgyra's new album "Hecate" is finally here: a sound adventure through
different forms of ritual music in time and space.
Occultism, Paganism, Alchemy, Gnosticism, Mithraism, Renaissance humanism,
Symbolism: these are the main coordinates of this unique album.
The opening (and title) track Hecate sets the mood: you're entering a different
realm. Dante makes his entrance in Inferno.
This song definitely deserves to be titled after the ôGreek goddess of
necromancy and sorceryö, i.e. Hecate.
The second track Athena is probably the more structured song of the album:
flute, dulcimer and mysterious chants converge around a martial pulsating beat,
exploring the beauty of different intricated melodies.
Nyx seems a hymn to nostalgy: dreamy, foggy, blurry.
Mithra and Teles explore more deeply into the ancient Eastern Folk soul of the
project.
Requiem, Amor fati and Lux aeterna dig into a different territory. The first is
a classical choir perfectly representative of the Christian Requiem tradition.
ôAmor fatiö is the only track with lyrics: an open invitation to seize the
moment (ôcarpe diemö) in pure Italian Renaissance style. ôLux aeternaö is a
devilish organ piece that closes this wonderful album.
