Mathame Debut NEO For The First Time In The US At The Brooklyn Mirage

Emo Tech DJ and producer duo Mathame unveil NEO World, a multi-stop, tour that will introduce their most groundbreaking concept to date – NEO – to audiences around the globe. Originally debuted during their residency of the same name at Ibiza’s beloved nightlife establishment Amnesia, NEO is an evolving art form that blends cutting-edge technology with the unifying power of music to deliver an experiential marvel in a category of its own. On Saturday, October 5, the duo will kick off the tour at The Brooklyn Mirage via a two-hour, 360-degree sonic experience – featuring the humanoid monument as the euphonic centerpiece at an impressive 9 meters tall – immersing attendees into their forward-thinking, cinematic artistic vision in a completely new way.

Born from an odyssey the brothers (Matteo and Amedeo Giovanelli) embarked on late last year in Tokyo, Japan, NEO is more than just a statue; it is a bridge between the ancient and the modern. By combining the emotional intensity of electronic music with rituals inspired by ancient practices the duo explored on their journey, NEO offers a transformative experience that connects audiences to a deeper sense of mindfulness and collective harmony.

A revolutionary approach to live music experiences, NEO comes to life as an android cyborg in a meditative state, delivering an unexpected optical element that transcends traditional LED visual integrations. A physical manifestation of the duo’s connective ethos, NEO creates spaces for human interaction and emotional resonance as Mathame invites audiences to explore the interplay between sound and the senses.

Revealing itself through the absorption of lights, shadows and colors synchronized with an expertly curated soundscape, NEO appears to dance through presence and absence, expressing an array of human-like emotions throughout each set. Simultaneously, the duo engages and interacts with the atmosphere, responding to mood and reaction to create an experience that evokes catharsis and communion in equal measure. NEO is a symbol of unity and peace, of coexistence and tolerance, a symbol of a place where people stay together in euphoric moments between nature, technology and spirituality.

From the solitude of volcanic Mount Etna to stages around the world, Italian DJ and producer duo Mathame connect audiences around the globe through transportive music that transcends genres, generations and dimensions. More than another DJ duo, Mathame are sonic alchemists whose productions unfold as poignant explorations that intertwine reverie and reality. Defying convention through their sound, the brothers masterfully immerse listeners into the futuristic realms they conjure, pulsating with sensorial magic and ethereal energies that linger in the air akin to candles in a great cathedral. Their first LP, “MEMO” was a technically driven masterpiece, paving the way for colossal collaborations with global talents like Tiësto and John Summit and amassing over 6 Million streams on Spotify and support from the likes of industry authorities such as Forbes’ 15 Best Albums List of 2023.

The announcement arrives hot on the heels of their most recent hit “I Will Find You” – a deeply personal release that reimagines the iconic intro track from legendary Italian DJ and electronic pioneer, Franchino – as well as the duo’s electrifying AV performance during Tomorrowland Weekend One. Marking their final AV show, Mathame’s performance on the Freedom Stage signaled the first full-length AI generated feature film on a public venue.
Harnessing machine learning to read, interpret and produce video clips of all the tercets of Dante’s Divine Comedy as if they themselves were the protagonists of a journey through hell, purgatory and paradise, the duo’s performance offered an unprecedented testament their dynamic vision, resonating at the crossroads of cinematic and futuristic realms.
