Behind The Scenes: ALBERTO RIGONI - Rage Of Olympus (Official Video)

Crafting Rage of Olympus was a journey into the epic and intense realm of Greek mythology, where gods and titans once clashed. Drawing from these powerful stories, I set out to create a track that captures both the intensity and grandeur of these mythological figures, balancing raw power with moments of introspection.

The piece kicks off with a high-energy, neoclassical-inspired section that echoes the chaotic power of Mount Olympus. It's a shred-heavy approach that allows the guitar, masterfully played by Thomas Polychuck, to shine. Thomas, a brilliant Canadian guitarist known for his collaborations with legends like Derek Sherinian and Virgil Donati, adds a fierce, technical edge that brings the gods' wrath to life. Every note he plays adds weight to the song, showcasing his incredible skill and artistry.

Adding to the intensity, Sajan, a young and exceptionally talented drummer from India, drives the rhythm with a dynamic and versatile performance. His drumming anchors the track, giving it a thunderous foundation that reminds me of Zeus' storms. Sajan's raw talent and unique style bring a fresh, energetic pulse to the piece.

As Rage of Olympus progresses, it shifts into a more melodic and reflective section. Here, the music takes on a softer tone, almost as if hinting at the wisdom and mystery that lies beyond the gods' might. This transition allows listeners to explore a different side of Olympus—a reminder of the delicate balance between power and peace.

Creating Rage of Olympus has been a thrilling experience, one that I hope resonates with anyone who listens. It's a tribute to both the ancient myths and the modern talents that brought this track to life.
