New York’s Salvatore Mercatante arrives on LOTO with a record that is more menacing whisper than blood-curdling scream. Stega III: Dianus Of Doorways is the final part of his trilogy based on the Italian dreamwalking spirits, the Benandanti. The after-dark adventures of a coven of young witches are drawn out in Salvatore’s growling synths, rattling drum patterns, purring basslines and shimmering modules. It’s proper moody gear, nocturnal creepers that’ll tap you on the shoulder in the dead of night and stalk you until dawn.
