Mathame

1 festival played

Sicilian brothers Amedeo and Matteo Giovanelli, shaping melodic techno out of long ascents and reverbed, guitar-like textures. Widescreen music built for very late nights.

Mathame's records have largely come out through Afterlife, the label run by Tale Of Us, and the duo's sound sits close to that roster: long, slow-building tracks with heavy reverb and melodic lines that carry more weight than the drums. "Skywalking" is among the tracks that got them attention outside Italy.

The Giovanelli brothers play as a pair, and their sets tend to work in long arcs rather than quick peaks, with the guitar-like textures of their studio work carried over into the mix.
