VENTURIA
HYBRID

Building upon the unique sound heard on their debut, "Hybrid" is a fitting title for the numerous sounds that make up the Venturia sound in 2008. "Hybrid" sees Venturia’s music sounding even more modern, veering away from classical prog metal edge heard on the debut and delving into new territories. The majority of the change can be heard on the new songs arrangements with the addition of some ambient guitars and keyboards being treated in a trip-hop and electronic music style. The balance between the male vocals of Marc Ferreira and female vocals of Lydie Robin are now equal and "Hybrid" saw Lydie involved in the writing of the lyrics for the first time. Despite these changes fans of the bands debut will grasp the new album with open arms with the sound never being mistaken for anyone other than Venturia. "Hybrid" was recorded at Artsonik studio, Delémont, Switzerland and produced by Charly Sahona and Diego Rapacchietti. The sound is modern, crisp and powerful yet sounding more organic than the debut – in short a killer production.
