From the mountains of Madrid comes Antinoë, the haunting one-woman project of pianist and vocalist Teresa
Marraco. With her ethereal voice and stark, piano-driven arrangements, Antinoë shapes soundscapes where
neoclassical elegance collides with the atmospheric weight of metal, weaving music that is at once fragile,
immersive, and profoundly melancholic. Fans of artists like Agnes Obel or Enya will find resonance here, yet
Antinoë’s world is darker, steeped in reflection, loss, and yearning.
Since its inception in 2021, Antinoë has embraced a uniquely personal approach to darkness, building her songs
around intimate piano compositions intertwined with her rich, resonant voice. Marraco’s background in extreme
music further anchors her vision: she has collaborated with acts such as Coldborn, Elffor, Balmog, and Empty,
and recorded the piano/keyboard parts for Dimmu Borgir’s live performance of Det Nye Riket at Beyond the
Gates Festival. Her 2023 debut, “Whispers from the Dark Past”, an acoustic reinterpretation of 90s Norwegian
black metal classics, garnered critical attention and cemented her distinctive identity on the border between metal
and neoclassical expression.
Now, Antinoë unveils her first full-length album of original material: “The Fold”. A conceptual journey that
navigates the acceptance of death, tracing the process of “folding inward,” to confront different stages of grief,
one by one, inviting us to walk a deeply personal path that nonetheless exposes universal themes such as
existentialism and the embracing of chaos as a necessary part of oneself. With “The Fold”, Antinoë transcends
genre boundaries to deliver music that is delicate, symphonic, and unflinchingly dark, an invitation to step into
shadows and discover their hidden beauty.
