Elia Piana

Tip! *75 copies limited edition* Ianua takes its name from the Latin word for “door,” drawing inspiration from the symbolism of Janus—the two-faced deity of beginnings, endings, and transitions. Conceived as a cyclical work where the end folds back into the beginning, the album is built entirely from guitar sounds, transformed through a Plumbutter and recorded to tape. Changes in tape speed and playback irregularities introduce subtle imperfections and shifting variations, allowing the loops to evolve gradually over time. Songs designed to be listened to at low volume, at dusk.
