Italian producer 19:26 makes his Afterlife return with The Passage EP, a five-track release that transforms memory, rupture, and rebirth into sound. Following his acclaimed performances on stages such as the Pyramids of Giza, Kappa Futur Festival, Space Miami, and Ushuaïa Ibiza, this marks his most personal statement yet.
Across five emotionally charged productions, 19:26 explores music not as entertainment, but as transformation. Collaborations with MRAK, Yubik, and Layla Benitez join forces with two solo efforts — the vocal-led Resurge and haunting closer Nocturne.
Each track is a threshold:
Overrated (w/ MRAK) – The rupture; illusions collapsing.
Relax Your Mind (w/ Yubik) – The release; hypnotic surrender.
All The Time (w/ Layla Benitez) – The obsession; cycles of desire.
Resurge – The ascent; fragile yet unstoppable.
Nocturne – The reflection; nostalgia suspended in twilight.
At the core lies the concept of The Passage: the fracture of perception, the awakening of resonance, the ascension into rebirth. Cold yet emotional, futuristic yet haunted by memory, it captures 19:26’s singular aesthetic — monumental in scale yet intimate in confession.
Born in Naples and raised away from the city he longed to call home, 19:26’s path began far from music. Trained as a lawyer, he even earned a scholarship for an elite magistracy program, destined for the courtroom. Yet the silence became unbearable. Guided by his grandmother’s piano, his grandfather’s odyssey, and the ghost of a mural reading “1926,” he abandoned certainty to embrace the stage.
With releases on Afterlife and Siamese, support from Tale Of Us, Tiësto, and Camelphat, and collaborations with Mrak, his trajectory is clear: 19:26 is defining the next wave of electronic music.
