Acousmatic black metal is our self-defined musical genre, a kind of conception about the sound experience, related to the phylosophy of Pythagoras of Samos. The acousmatic art, according to Pierre Schaeffer "is said to be derived from akousmatikoi, the outer circle of Pythagora's disciples who only heard their teacher speaking from behind a veil. In a similar way, one hears acousmatic music from behind the 'veil' of loudspeakers, without seeing the source of the sound". Inspired by the Russolo's researches in his black Art of Noise, the sound spatialization studies of Karlheinz Stockhausen and his music theory, and by Edgar Varese's studies and his vision of "sound as living matter". Music for loudspeakers and audience; based on atonal music and non-idiomatic improvisation principles, applied to a radical black metal approach, linked to authors such as Abruptum, Bathory, Moevot, Hellhammer, Celtic Frost and other pioneers in this music genre, designed in acousmatic key, for an immersive deep listening experience in the sound projection.
