1. Halo is a two piece sound-excreting entity based in Melbourne, Australia comprising of Skye Klein (dub project tether, glitchy dub electro project Terminal Sound System, post-rock A Beautiful Machine, ambient project Siilt) - Bass, Voices and Robert Allen - Drums, using these and miscellaneous noise to create crushing subversive anti-music.
Beginning as a three piece, Halo self-released two CDs in limited numbers before compacting to it’s current two piece lineup, allowing for maximum creative power and flexibility. Halo often incorporates electronic noise textures via four-track tapes and digital samplers to complete their shuddering wall of sound. The true power of Halo is best experienced live: a trance-inducing assault on the senses, pure cathartic terrorism and full-frequency blast. Halo has deafened audiences at countless clubs, pubs, warehouses and festivals around Melbourne including supporting Brutal Truth in 1999.
Drawing from an expansive range of sonic ideas and influences, as well as a love of constant experimentation, Halo is equally at home with grinding riff-driven noisecore and improvised dronal ambient noise, often mixing the two for maximum terror effect.
Released in September, 2001, 'Guattari (From the West Flows Grey Ash and Pestilence)' was the ultimate realization to date of Halo’s sonic identity. Dealing with fear and loathing in this age of corporate disease and environmental annhiliation, mixing bonecrushing heaviness with searing caustic noise textures, 'Guattari...' delivered truly extreme music from a very unique band. At times compared to a bastardized mixture of early Swans, Godflesh and dISEMBOWELMENT, Halo dismantled, leaking shuddering passages of electronic decay and radioactive drone on their debut CD for Relapse Records. A two week U.S. tour with labelmates Mastodon and Bongzilla in May, 2002 more than confirmed what Halo’s fans were hoping - that Halo’s live performances were as deadly as their recorded output. High-profile appearances at both the New England Metal and Hardcore Festival and NJ Metalfest drove the point home even further.
Having punctured the harsh outer skin with 'Guattari (From the West Flows Grey Ash & Pestilence),' Halo burrow deeper into the corrupt inner flesh of post-industrial depravity and corporate disease with 'Body of Light.' A rumbling diatribe of fear, loathing and pure sonic oppression, 'Body of Light' swallows its listener with the density of a collapsing star.
Halo were reported to have a new album on the way in 2008 which is still yet to be seen.

1. Halo is a solo project of Modern Classical/Ambient music by Italian composer Pasquale Riviezzo, 23 y.o. He currently lives in Zurich, Switzerland
He has been playing piano for 13 years and guitar for 8 years, and started his musical project Halo as a way to express his personal thoughts and feelings, considering music as a form of art, and therefore as a way to convey meaningful messages and emotions to listeners in the form of sounds.
After some self released works, his first EP "Late Winter Tales" was released in May 2012 by Canadian label Dewtone Recordings. A collection of B-Sides from 2012, Scenes from the four seasons, was then released in March 2013.
A new EP, Song of the Highest Tower, was released in March 2014 as a contribution to the "Places Series" project by the ambient/electronic record label A Strangely Isolated Place.
Pasquale also collaborates with Le Blanc Records label.
