On November 25th internationally, Antiq is proud to present Hyver’s third album, Shaâtaunoâr: Shaâtaunoâr | Hyver | Antiq
The new Hyver album is a concept album in which YOU are the hero. Arriving before a castle, you are offered choices in arborescent paths, giving you the opportunity to actually choose the rooms in which you wish to wander. In Shaâtaunoâr, there is only one goal for you: escape! To exit this horrible castle, you have to make wise choices and find the path to the outside. The choices of music are dungeon synth interludes with the story told by either Virginie Ropars (French sculptress and artist, who does the English version) or David Thiérrée (French version, illustrator and painter). When entering to a room, the music becomes a fierce and epic blend of dungeon synth and black metal to describe you the rooms in which you wander.
Antiq is a label dedicated to the fully coherent concept of making music through sound, image, video, and attitude. They have been putting their entire existence into it since 2009. Over the years, Antiq have been identified as producers of not only perfectly coherent lyrics and themes through music, but also conceptual art and, of course, the manufacturing of beautiful objects. The label tries as much as it can to work with French creators, and if possible, with the smallest and most serious structures.
