Conjuring Gothic Visions through Sound
Blood Dance. Remember the name, because this isn't just another band from the cold concrete heart of Mexico City. No, this quartet is here to shatter your preconceived notions of music and drag you kicking and screaming into the abyss of their creation. Forget genres. Blood Dance is a musical hydra, a beast that draws its lifeblood from the occult, the macabre tales of serial killers, the unrelenting pulse of S&M, and the eternal allure of vampires.
Natalya Speranzza pounds the drums like she's summoning the dark gods themselves, Castel's synths and guitars wail and moan like tortured spirits, Bree M's basslines throb with an ominous intensity, and the mastermind Asanti—well, Asanti weaves it all together with guitars, synths, and vocals that could wake the dead. They’re not just playing music; they’re conjuring a ritual, a ceremony of sound designed to make the darkest dance floors on the planet tremble and quake. So, if you're tired of the same old recycled noise, if you crave something raw, something real, something that'll grip your spine and yank you into the shadows, then Blood Dance is your ticket. They're not just a band. They're a revolution.
International Recognition
On stage, Blood Dance dominates, and they’ve shared the stage with legends like Corpus Delicti, Clan of Xymox, Hapax, Gitane Demone, Plastique Noir, and Spiritual Bat; and earned the recognition and support of many of these bands.
In 2019, Blood Dance began releasing a series of meticulously crafted singles under the guiding hand of Bari Bari, of Mephisto Walz and Christian Death. These tracks quickly garnered the attention of DJ around the world.
Their collaborations include other legends such as Frank KA of Corpus Delicti. Together they birthed Blood Dance - 'Addictive Remix,' a testament to Blood Dance's ever-evolving sonic canvas, pushing the boundaries of Goth.
