Asymmetric Universe is an instrumental project formed in 2018 by the brothers Federico Vese and Nicolo' Vese. Their goal is to create complex music but still accessible to the listener, ranging from modern prog metal to fusion, from avant-garde jazz to emotional ambient, along with chamber orchestration.
In 2019 the two brothers released their completely DIY debut EP “When Reality Disarticulates”.
In 2022 they finished their second EP “The Sun Would Disappear As I Imagined All The Stars”, with the brothers handling again the whole production and composition process. The Ep was released on 28th April 2023, just before touring EU and UK as the opening act for Ne Obliviscaris and Persefone in the Exul EU/UK tour in May 2023.
In 2024 they signed with Inside Out Music and play at the ArcTangent Festival. In 2025 they released their debut full length album "A Memory And What Came After".
With an ambitious new record, a growing international presence, and an uncompromising creative vision, Asymmetric Universe continue to push the boundaries of what instrumental progressive music can be: fiercely technical, emotionally resonant, and wholly their own.
"Jazz and Metal have nothing to do with each other? Asymmetric Universe from Italy clearly say, "Si, certo!" ("Of course they do!) and effortlessy bring the two genres together"
