Kandinsky Noir is a Berlin based solo project by Anto inspired by EBM, Post-Punk, Industrial, Progressive Metal sounds. The focus of the composition is on relentless odd time signatures, heavy dissonant guitar riffs, catchy choruses and a combination of guttural and clean vocals.

It is a praise of failure, an ode to existential emptiness. The choice of the sax as the main instrument is due to its unique nature related to breathing: when the music stops, the breathing stops. The long solo at the end creates a sort of double movement between the almost black metal double kick drum pattern and the soothing sound of the brass, as a crescendo towards the inevitable tragedy, in fear and relief. This track saw the collaboration of the portentous Elisa Pambianchi, Frontwoman of the Italian Darkwave Band 3 Dead and the mesmerising saxophone play
