KEYGEN CHURCH is the brainchild of technologist/songwriter Victor Love (Vittorio D’Amore). Love, additionally of 8-bit phenoms Grasp Boot Document (MBR), is a one-person outfit, writing, and recording by way of undisclosed real-time stream occasions, the place the devoted (and fortunate) bear witness to KEYGEN CHURCH‘s spontaneous inventive course of. Like earlier alt code/textual content art-titled albums ░ ▒ ▓ █(2022) and ░█░█░░█░█░█░ (2022), Nel Nome Del Codice is a modern-primitive love letter to doom/gothic/black steel with foundations in Baroque-era Classical and Romantic-era music.

Love received his begin in music by know-how. He was a tech at his father’s pc enterprise, the place hands-on expertise with {hardware} and software program cultivated a bounce to sysadmin at college. From there, the Italian fell into digital advertising and marketing and trendsetting. When the KEYGEN CHURCH architect was uncovered to pirated software program, the intro – known as “cracktros” – music was pivotal to the “key generator” tradition. The scene (aka “demoscene“) that developed out of that caught his metal-attuned ears and gadget-oriented thoughts. Grasp Boot Document and KEYGEN CHURCH are the merchandise and expressions of a bygone bootlegging period thrust into the current by completely different style lenses. Suppose the previous is impressed by demise steel. In that case, the latter is symphonic black steel, and Nel Nome Del Codice is just not not like Arcturus‘ La Masquerade Infernale or Elend‘s The Umbersun if envisioned by Japanese 8-bit composer Koichi Sugiyama (Dragon Quest).
Love’s work in KEYGEN CHURCH is homage and innovation. He’s a fan of ciphers – astute followers should work out the place they’re used on Nel Nome Del Codice. The emblem is ASCII artwork, a “graphic language” created by bulletin board system (BBS) customers within the early days of the Web. Whereas the quilt might seem minimalist initially, the 1-bit pixel artwork by Germany-based illustrator Valenberg (Perturbator, VirtuaVerse) alerts KEYGEN CHURCH‘s ascent to their closing kind. If the metamorphosis is full, Love’s journey to Nel Nome Del Codice has been inspiring. The refined craftwork of “Lode Al Disco Sacro,” “Sulla By way of Della Gloria,” the almost eight-minute nearer, “Sempre Nel Mio Pensiero,” beholds darksome liturgical majesty, the likes of which we’re listening to/experiencing for the primary time at our respective pews.
