about

Antistandard continues its journey into sound with “Black Tide”, the third official album by Demetrio Cecchitelli aka Halfcastle. After releases on Biodiversità Records, Weird Tapes Rekords, and Ghost City Collective, the Italian young and talented artist now enters the Antistandard extended family.

The seven-tracks album is the apex of five years spent experimenting in the fields of ambient-noise and electroacoustic music, conflating freak ambient dream-like qualities with post-rock structures.
“Black Tide” slowly unfolds as a soundtrack to an imaginary movie. It invites the listener to abandon themselves to its sound and drift off, as if lulled by waves. The black tide of the title suggests a dark atmosphere, yet its darkness never overflows into hopeless bleakness. Instead, it’s a deep and immersive work, spiritual and tance-inducing in its repetitions.
