1) Ataraxia was a pseudonym used by experimental electronic musician Mort Garson only on his 1975 album "The Unexplained: Electronic Musical Impressions of the Occult".
2) Ataraxia, formed in 1985, is a neofolk / neoclassical band from Modena and Reggio Emilia, Italy, that combines modern technology with archaic instrumentation over various media. They describe their music as a cross "between sacred and profane, ethereal and neoclassic, contemporary and early music." Their work has often involved research into European legends and Classical mythology. Contemplation, dreamy experiences, elegiac atmospheres, ritual movements float in a mysterious garden where contemporary textures of notes meet the embracing echo of classic sounds. Their lyrics are written in many ancient and contemporary languages (such as Latin, French, German, English, and their native Italian) as they try to bring to the surface the hidden treasures and revelations of each. Many of their performances take place in locations the band professes to possess specific spiritual qualities. Since their beginnings in the late 1980s, they have recorded over 20 original LPs every one presenting its own original concept. To name just a few, La Malédiction d'Ondine (1995) deals with female spirits of water and earth; while “Llyr” (2010) tells the story of a divine being traveling through times and forms. Their last work Quasar (2020) is dedicated to 7 archangelic archetypes.
Some of their earlier long sold-out albums have been recently re-released with numerous bonus-tracks.

Ataraxia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Estirpare dalle rive d'ogni fiume
Luce a luce
Cavare sangue
Se si può ritrovare qualche
Farraginoso imbelle Dio
Luce a luce
Cavare sangue
Risoluti eroici nulla
Con il viso puntato al cielo
Se ce l'hanno
Con il viso puntato al cielo
Puntato al cielo
Se ce l'hanno
Quali storie
Estirpare dalle rive d'ogni fiume
Luce a luce
Cavare sangue
Se si può ritrovare qualche
Farraginoso imbelle Dio
Luce a luce
Cavare sangue
Dilagano così, nella trasparenza della necessità
Risoluti eroici nulla
Con il viso puntato al cielo
Se ce l'hanno
Con il viso puntato al cielo
Puntato al cielo
Se ce l'hanno
The lyrics of ATARAXIA's Kremasta Nera are full of symbols that evoke a sense of mystery and mysticism. The song seems to be an exploration of the human desire to understand the world and find our place in it. The first stanza speaks of "ripping stories from the banks of every river" and "extracting blood, little by little." These images suggest a violent struggle to find meaning and knowledge. The second stanza continues this theme of struggle and determination, with the lyrics "they spread like wildfire in the transparency of necessity, resolved and heroic for nothing, with their faces pointed to the sky if they have it."
The use of the phrase "if they have it" in the last line of both stanzas implies a sense of uncertainty and doubt. The characters in the song are searching for something they may not even possess. The repetition of the phrase "light by light, extracting blood" suggests a slow and painful process of discovery. The final lines of the song, "Pointed to the sky, if they have it," leave us with the question of whether these characters have found what they are searching for, or if they are still wandering, lost and uncertain.
