History

Tale of Us make techno that behaves like film music. The tempo is moderate, the kick has a soft edge rather than a punishing one, and the weight of a track sits in a long minor-key melody that takes several minutes to arrive and then repeats until it fills the whole room. The Italian duo came up through the European club circuit and found their form in the melodic techno that took over large rooms and festival tents in the second half of the twenty-tens. Afterlife, the party and label they founded, matters as much as the records: heavy staging, cathedral-scale visuals and a deliberately solemn tone made it a brand that other artists were programmed into, and it set the visual language for the whole style. Endless and Nova show the approach plainly, patient arrangements that withhold the melody and then refuse to let go of it. The criticism and the appeal are the same thing: this is music built for scale and unashamed about emotion.
