Nuovo Testamento

About

Nuovo Testamento is the sonic embodiment of a neon-lit, post-disco dreamscape, where Italian melancholy meets pulsating synth-pop. Hailing from Italy and Los Angeles, the trio—comprising vocalist Chelsey Crowley, producer Andrea Mantione, and multi-instrumentalist Giacomo Zatti—crafts music that feels both nostalgic and futuristic, blending the icy allure of 1980s Italo-disco with the raw energy of modern darkwave. Their sound is a hypnotic fusion of Crowley’s haunting vocals, shimmering synths, and driving basslines, creating an atmosphere that’s as cinematic as it is danceable. Since their formation in 2018, Nuovo Testamento has carved a niche in the underground music scene, earning a cult following with their debut EP *Exposed*. Their breakthrough came with the 2021 album *New Earth*, a masterclass in emotional depth and dancefloor-ready beats. Tracks like “Heartbeat” and “Michelle Michelle” showcase their ability to balance vulnerability with unrelenting energy, making them a standout act in the global synth-pop revival. Culturally, Nuovo Testamento bridges the gap between retro aesthetics and contemporary queer expression, with Crowley’s lyrics often exploring themes of love, identity, and resilience. Their live performances are electrifying, transforming venues into immersive, otherworldly experiences. Currently, the band is riding high on the success of their 2023 single “Heat,” a collaboration with fellow darkwave artist Boy Harsher, further cementing their status as innovators in the genre. With a new album on the horizon, Nuovo Testamento continues to push boundaries, proving that the past and future can coexist in perfect harmony.
