"Archetipo" explores the landscapes of the unconscious. The word "persona" in Latin means mask: thus the personality, the scenery of the ego, is transformed into a theatre of archetypal images, merging word and music, like a rhetorical figure, a synesthesia. The aesthetic-musical research is a poetic-sound journey into the psyche, to tell and celebrate it.

Debut single from Erlinn – But I hope… This is a track about frustration and fatigue that fill all the space around – but no matter what happens, there is always hope in your heart. It leads us like a guiding star. Gentle emotional vocals, deep samples and melodics convey the whole spectrum of emotions: from despair to faith in the best. Le premier single de Erlinn est la chanson But I hope ... c'est une piste sur la frustration et la fatigue qui remplissent tout l'espace – mais quoi qu'il arrive, il y a toujours de l'espoir. Elle continue a mener, comme une etoile de guidage. Des voix emotionnelles douces, des samples profonds et de la melodica transmettent toute la gamme des emotions, du desespoir a la croyance en le meilleur.

The band was formed in the end of 2021 from two musicians who have over 10 years of experience in different bands and genres. Kirill Diakov, vocalist and songwriter, has been singing and composing in bands of dark experimental, new wave, gothic rock and jazz genres. Maxim Karaganov, multi-instrumentalist, continues his parallel work in a dream-pop band. The musicians teamed up to create a concept album about the crisis of relationships whether its interpersonal or intrapersonal. This is a poem, a story told in the first person of each of the characters who bring their experiences out to the public. The musical component is the cold sound of a drum machine, along with catchy guitar hooks, as well as arrangements unusual for the synth-pop genre. Additional musicians: Dmitry Talyan – bass on “Goodbye Ivan”, “You Near” Maria Bogaichuk (Maria Chu) – back vocals on “You Near”, Production: Alexander Medvedev - mixing engineer Anatoly (Tokee) Grinberg – mastering engineer
