DATURANA original was founded in spring 2003 in the north of Hessen as psychedelic rock cover-band and consists of five members in ages between 20 and 38, which met in the special feeling of music. Over the years and influenced by the Doors and Pink Floyd, DATURANA started to arrange their own songs and create their own music-style, which is a compound of psychedelic, rock and blues. On their debut Album “Ghosts In The Flowers” DATURANA present a special organic sound. Drums, bass, guitar, Hammond, keyboard, synthesizer-effects and Vocals open the doors to other musical spheres. Most times the lyrical I finds itself on a journey, which is coloured by atmospheric changes between reality and dream. Love, pain and bereavement are interlocked and inspirited by personal experience. [ » more ]

LOS NATAS - Nuevo Orden De La Libertad

"Somewhere in the jungles of South America a tree is still standing. Somewhere in the slums of Buenos Aires a child learns to read. Somewhere south of the equator the spirit of rock and roll burns ever vigilant. A spirit calls to us across many borders and many hundreds of miles. Acall to create, a call to repair, a call to manifest a power to make things right in the world. This is not an album; it's a call to arms. This is not music; it's the sound of a revolution. This is Nuevo Orden De La Libertad, The New Order of Liberty. Ten new tracks from Argentina's prodigal sons of real rock and roll, Los Natas. Nuevo Orden De La Libertad, is the album we've always known that Los Natas could make. Thick, heavy, psychedelic swirlings that combine the best of both worlds this Latin son’s inhabit. " [ » more ]

THE MACHINE - Solar Corona

Originating from around Rotterdam (The Netherlands), The Machine are a traditional three-piece playing Psychedelic HEAVY Rock. Started out in September 2006, the current line-up was formed in October 2007. The late 60s and early 70s are a source of inspiration and are reflected in the heavy and downtuned sound this band has to offer. You can expect a pounding rhythm section and lots of soloing on guitar combined with an overall laidback subtlety. Here you get real heavy shit, long tracks and endlessly pounding psychedelic music. Coloured vinyl is limited to 100 copies only. [ » more ]

ATOMIC WORKERS - Third Disaster

Atomic Workers’ Third Disaster is astonishing. A true Unidentified Sonic Object. A spaceship, a time capsule coming from the past depths of hard rock planet such as from the future kingdoms of the so called post-rock. The space-rock, garage, psychedelic groove expands itself here as an overwhelming attitude instead of lying just as a mere gender label. As a result of a flexible and ductile line-up, that provides richness in sounds and harmonies, with keyboards, strings, electronic machines on the huge guitars floors, the music stream, along with touching lyrics, traces a unique and atmospheric organism, track by track. In the end, Atomic Workers sound far more than a simple band: not properly a superband, nor just an individual creativenesses addition, rather a confident collective aimed to multiply its creativeness, thanks to the accurate and powerful sound engineering too. The symphonic ambition of this third album is fully justified by the olistic vision of the music work. Excellent. Enzo20Mansueto [ » more ]
