Sacrobosco’s "Blackthrough" Explores the Raw Power of Sound and Feeling

Known for crafting rich, atmospheric soundscapes, Sacrobosco (aka Giacomo Giunchedi) pushes his boundaries once again with his latest single 'Blackthrough' This new track reshapes the intricate structures of dance music into something warmer and more lo-fi. While fans will recognise nods to the legendary Warp Records sound, 'Blackthrough' forges its own identity, a blend of pure bass, textured beats, and a deeply emotional undercurrent. This is the final single leading up to his highly anticipated third album 'Apes + Tigers'.

Listening to 'Blackthrough' feels like embarking on a journey through a familiar yet experimental soundscape. The track flows seamlessly, shifting like a landscape bathed in different lights and moods. It's an experience where rhythm and power coexist with moments of quiet reflection and a hero synth that steals the spotlight, showcasing Sacrobosco's talent for balancing technical complexity with raw, human emotion.
The release also comes with two B-side tracks; 'Transparent Jungle' and 'Rosa Arancione Rosso'. Both tracks complement the experience and experimental nature of 'Blackthrough', offering dreamier, more exotic sounds that invite listeners to get beautifully lost.
Since first emerging under the name Sacrobosco in 2020, Giunchedi has built a reputation for fearless experimentation and refinement. From early releases like 'Dam' to the twin albums IVXVI and IXVXI, and now onto this latest chapter, he is continuing to evolve while staying true to his signature sound. His recent collaborations, like those with acclaimed trumpeter Paolo Raineri, add even more layers to his already rich musical tapestry.
With 'Blackthrough', Sacrobosco once again proves he’s an artist unafraid to explore, innovate, and connect. It’s a powerful reminder that in a world increasingly shaped by machines, the human heart still beats loudest.
