The Shadow Sect project was born in early 2013 and is the result of the union of two well established musical and human
realities, Giulio Ascoli [Former WPL and current owner and administrator of Big Riddim Recordings] and Cristian Pavese [Former
DOM/The Anunnaki].
Having met each other during the organization of the Italian Therapy Session chapter, the two
soon discovered important affinities not only in the musical field but also in the personal and human one.Both grew up in a
background oriented mainly on Metal, Hardcore, Metal, Rock and crossover, in addition to a passion for experimental, electronic
and avant-garde music,
but divided by the stylistic and working orientations of the time.
Over the years both have affirmed their position in the world scene for their respective genres,
DnB \ Hard DnB for Giulio, Hardcore, Frenchcore for Cris not forgetting the techno rave origins.
2013 marks the conjunction of these two realities but in order to express their shape in the best way
they will have to wait around 2017 when both, having closed their respective contractual obligations with the agencies and
labels at the time, decided to take over the Shadow Sect
project and bring it to light focusing 100% of their forces on it.
In just two years Shadow Sect has released over 12 releases with the major and most importantlabels on the world scene such
as PRSPCT, EatBrain, Othercide, FutureSickness, Big Riddim Recordings, Close2Death, Hanzom Music and some others,
collaborating with the major
exponents of the European and World DnB such as : Dj Hidden, LucyFurr, Gancher & Ruin, Switch Technique, Hallucinator, Delimit,
Sinister Souls, The Clamps, Zardonic, Mizo , IHR,Dope D.O.D., Mollie Collins and The Satan, to name but a few.
Since 2017 in terms of live performances, the “Hellish Duo” is engaged in annual tours with worldwide coverage.
