A cinematic journey through consciousness and code
Anyma The End of Genesys Lands on 30th May. It opens up a new chapter for Matteo Milleri — better known as one half of Tale Of Us, the mind behind Afterlife, and the singular force shaping audiovisual techno’s future. Across fifteen tracks, his second solo album fuses melodic trance, industrial techno and ambient tension with a visual and conceptual thread that explores artificial identity, decay, rebirth and resistance. It deepens the mythology built through his debut Genesys, but does it with more emotion, more urgency — and far more scale.
The first thing you notice? The End of Genesys sounds vast. Glacial intros give way to punchy, cinematic drops. Synths sprawl, fade, mutate. Vocals arrive warped, ghostly, then land fully human. It’s an album you feel across your chest, right through the crowd. But more than that, it’s built for experience — a listening arc that stretches from inner turmoil to collective release. This is storytelling through frequency.
End of Genesys Sonic design meets immersive ambition
Sound-wise, Anyma still works within melodic techno — arpeggios, atmospheres, heavy drops. But the structures here feel more evolved than on Genesys. There’s more contrast between aggression and stillness, more cinematic breathing room between drums. Work featuring Yeat is glitchy and maximalist, whereas Human Now leans fully into shoegaze melancholy. Elsewhere, Leave A Mark and Angel In The Dark hold back entirely, letting ambient texture do the heavy lifting.
It’s this sonic restraint that gives the record weight. The End of Genesys isn’t chasing charts. It’s building a universe. That includes the visuals — an ongoing part of the Anyma mythology. Each show is mapped and coded to react in real-time, turning club environments into sentient systems. Those attending his live set on May 30 — the official album release day — at Ibiza’s Ushuaïa, can expect full AV immersion.
Anyma End of Genesys Tracklist
The full tracklist runs like this:
Lucente
Voices In My Head
Hypnotized (feat. Ellie Goulding)
Taratata (with Grimes)
Neverland (From Japan)
Fortuna (feat. Sevdaliza)
Atmosphere
Work (feat. Yeat)
The End Of Genesys
Leave A Mark
In My Mind
Entropy (feat. fknsyd)
Angel In The Dark
Human Now (feat. Luke Steele)
Joke’s On You (feat. 070 Shake)
Standouts? Hypnotized plays it big-room with Ellie Goulding’s presence. Taratata, co-produced with Grimes, is wired and furious. Entropy slows things to a crawl, pulling you into noise and silence. And Fortuna — with Sevdaliza’s hypnotic cadence — might be the most emotional piece on the album. Every track sits between mood and momentum. And none feel filler.
From Berlin beginnings to the Sphere in Vegas
Before Anyma, there was Milleri: Berlin-based, Italy-raised, steeped in European club culture, and co-founder of one of the most influential techno duos of the last decade. Tale Of Us became cult fixtures through their emotive strain of melodic techno — first with Life and Death, later with their own Afterlife label. But while Tale Of Us pushed genre boundaries, Anyma has done something different entirely.
Since 2021, Anyma has been building a transmedia ecosystem — music, NFTs, AI-generated visuals, and stage productions that merge organic and digital elements in real time. Collaborators like Alessio De Vecchi bring the shows to life with moving sculptures, virtual avatars and post-human forms, all triggered by the audio itself. This isn’t just touring; it’s theatre built from code and consciousness.
That ambition reached a peak this year when Anyma debuted at the Las Vegas Sphere — becoming one of the first electronic acts to headline the 16K wraparound LED venue. His visuals, re-rendered for the Sphere’s colossal canvas, pushed generative art into full immersion: giant biomech angels, neural fog, liquid matter pulsing in sync with the drop. It’s not just spectacle. It’s narrative design at arena scale.
Ibiza’s [UNVRS] residency begins
And he’s bringing it to Ibiza. The End of Genesys will anchor Anyma’s 2025 summer residency at UNVRS, the Afterlife-powered multi-sensory series based at Hï and Ushuaïa. Running across key Fridays, it’ll form the backbone of his new live AV set — integrating this album’s mythology with next-gen visual tech and modular storytelling. If you caught his scene-stealing set during last year’s Afterlife closing, this summer’s evolution is set to level up the entire island format.
UNVRS isn’t just a residency. It’s a lab. A test space for the audiovisual possibilities Anyma has been developing. And this album — with its narrative closure — gives him the perfect foundation to build from. Expect new characters, new environments, and new interactive elements. And most likely, the beginning of whatever chapter comes next.
There’s real intentionality in how the album unfolds. These aren’t just bangers lined up for Spotify streams. They’re scenes. Chapters. Frames in a hallucinated film. And when you listen in order, you hear that arc — from awakening, to descent, to transformation.

Final word on Anyma’s vision
The End of Genesys is both statement and send-off. It closes a loop, but cracks open something stranger. Anyma has built a new kind of project: part musician, part architect, part machine. This isn’t about fame, or hits. It’s about memory, decay, ritual, rebirth. It’s about letting go of the human to feel something even deeper.
With [UNVRS] locked in and the Sphere now part of his live arsenal, Anyma isn’t just performing anymore. He’s prototyping the future.
