about

In the year 2024, amidst a world filled with noise, chaos, and constant innovation, Zi Iacchos in Greek mythology is associated with Dionysus, the god of wine, fertility, and ecstasy. Iacchos is often regarded as a companion to Dionysus, a guide to the mysteries and celebrations that accompany the worship of the god of wine. In some traditions, Iacchos is even considered an incarnation or aspect of Dionysus himself.

Thus, Zi Iacchos, in the context of our time, represents a fusion of these mythological archetypes with a contemporary vision of artistic expression. Like his mythic namesake, Zi Iacchos is a guide through the realms of sound, an interpreter of the mysteries hidden in the darkest corners of the human soul.

"Heaven" and "Hell" aren't just titles; they're portals into a realm where reality bends, where darkness dances with light, and where the mundane is transmuted into the extraordinary. But how does Zi Iacchos achieve such alchemy? Through the simplest of means yet the most profound of methods.

With nothing more than a microphone and two effect pedals, Zi Iacchos ventures into the depths of soundscapes, capturing fragments of the world around us and reshaping them into something utterly mesmerizing. It's a testament to the power of creativity, to the boundless potential of human expression.

In "Kadom," you'll find yourself soaring on ethereal waves, enveloped in a celestial embrace that transcends the limitations of the physical world. It's an auditory tapestry woven with threads of euphoria and tranquility, inviting you to lose yourself in its heavenly embrace.

Conversely, "Modak" plunges you into the abyss, where discordant echoes and haunting whispers beckon from the shadows. It's a visceral descent into the darkest recesses of the human psyche, a confrontation with the demons that lurk within us all.

But amidst the chaos and the cacophony, there is beauty to be found. Zi Iacchos isn't content to simply dwell in the realms of light or darkness; instead, they navigate the liminal spaces in between, crafting a sonic landscape that is as nuanced as it is mesmerizing.
