Padre Guilherme is rewriting the rulebook of melodic techno with his debut EP ‘Veneremur Et Adoremus’, released via Lux Aeterna Records. Known for bridging sacred tradition with club-ready intensity, the Portuguese artist elevates his mission to full creative flight alongside Italian duo Ebmath, vocalist Liliana Sofia Coelho, and the angelic Pequenos Cantores de Amorim e de Laúndos choir.
The opening track, Ave Maria (Original Mix), takes Caccini’s timeless work and reimagines it for modern dancefloors. Lush pads swell beneath crystalline vocals, while driving percussive layers create a euphoric tension-release that feels as natural in a cathedral as it does in an Ibiza after-hours. Coelho’s delivery pierces through the mix with reverence, while the children’s choir adds a transcendent dimension rarely felt in club music.
On Adoramus (Original Mix), Padre Guilherme leans into hypnotic minimalism, weaving devotional chant into a rich tapestry of techno rhythms. It’s a track that rewards patience, building with an understated pulse before breaking into a sweeping melodic finale. Where Ave Maria feels celestial and uplifting, Adoramus is contemplative and immersive — the yin to its yang.
Ebmath’s fingerprints are all over the project, their mastery of atmospheric sound design and retro-inspired textures lending depth to the EP’s spiritual ambition. Together with Padre Guilherme’s vision, they’ve crafted a release that sits at the crossroads of ritual and rave, meditation and momentum.
With appearances at Afterlife in Ibiza, Medusa Festival, Zamna Chile, and even under the watchful gaze of Cristo Redentor in Rio, Padre Guilherme has proven that techno can transcend its boundaries. ‘Veneremur Et Adoremus’ redefines the space where faith and electronic music collide.
