Biografia
As said by the late Juno Plus: “The middle ground between US and European electronic music is where the work of Hiver exists.” Echoing hypnotic melodies and haunting rhythms have given form to Hiver's sound. They have been defining their aesthetic path, driven by melodic and distant elements slowly evolving in a mould of linear rhythms. Their debut EP, A Day, on Vidab Records was followed by the highly acclaimed Blue Aconite EP, released via Curle Recordings and including a Tobias remix. Thanks to this release, Hiver’s name began to be recognized worldwide. Clubs and festival promoters soon started taking note of their work, as testified by their shows at Panoramabar, Dimensions Festival, Polifonic, ADE, Oval Space, Tresor, and tours in Asia, the US, and South America. Their sets focus on the interregnum between electronic and techno, with excursions through Detroit house.
Based in Milan, they have been playing as residents at the infamous Dude Club, and in the meantime, other labels and producers started approaching Hiver with collaboration offers. Since then, they have issued several releases on Curle, Luke Hess’s Deeplabs, Kann, Appian Sounds, Fides, LET Amsterdam, and Taped Artifact. In 2019, Peggy Gou featured a Hiver track on her compilation for !K7. In 2021, the duo made a comeback with releases on Polifonic's new label and Sungate Records, including the Wave Sliding EP on Peggy Gou's GUDU label, a record that both marks and celebrates Hiver’s 10 years of operation.
