bored witch - ep cdr
Bored Witch is the culmination of an unexisting trend or an imaginary hype. A band soaked in studio jams, obscure recording sessions and adventurous live appearances. The attitude in these tracks is punkish (in its very political sense) but they also add bits of kraut rock loads of no-wave, noise and improvisation. In their own words "this band is a lapse between relationships, a chance to do something different, to make brain-melting pagan rock’n’roll to be exact, to join the halves and make a whole, to be interesting just this once...", "ENCOURAGE GIRLS STAGEDIVING, FUCK PATRIARCHY".
Muso Fantasma - Se Puede Bailar Con Los Demonios Pero Siempre En Actituo De Fiesta cdr

Their music is like a trip to unknown and gostly places. a collage of sounds with dramatic melodies. They use sumplers, effects, keyboards, electric guitar and industrial percussions. The artworks are made by Muso Fantasma making this release a real art object!

Sentimental expression is replaced by psychological variations through alternation of urban and natural music landscapes.
