Very first CD by this Symphonic Progressive Hard Rock quintet, which boasts amongst its major influences the likes of Rush (from a Classic Rock standpoint) and Threshold & Vanden plas (in a more Contemporary vein). The fivesome have very creatively injected touches of local indigenous sounds into the grooves, and come up with a very originally-sounding product in the process.

The outfit continues down the same musical identity and esthetics as their previous album, on this, their new studio effort, which is the lads' fourth album, and one that features a stronger leniency towards Psychedelic Hard Rock than any of their preceding recordings.

With a totally unpredictable and unstructured style, this guitar, violin and drums threesome recorded this, their second disc. They were accompanied in its making by Chamber instruments, which contribute to the general sense of organized harmonic chaos. They wander through 60's & 70's soundtracks mixed with Crimsonian noises, and the rawness of Eastern European Punk Rock. A very peculiar combo.

This is the threesome's first album-formatted offering, and it is inspired by the "Choose Your Own Adventure" series of game-books, which were so popular during the eighties and the nineties. The fourteen Instrumental tracks are based in a kind of incidental way on different chapters of the saga, and done in a style reminiscent of the movie soundtracks from the sixties, as they blend together Electronic, Psychedelic, Progressive, and Groove sonic undertones together.

The publication in 1957 of his classic book "On The Road" provided Jack Kerouac with a sudden fame, the administration of which would keep him busily occupied almost until his demise. A collateral effect of this vivid renown were the assignments he received from different magazines.

Yodi Godoy was an initial member of Vox Dei, when he participated in the recording sessions of "La Biblia" back in 1970. Over four decades later, he has re-recorded this classic cornerstone of Argentine Rock, with his own personal vision and spin. This new version includes two movements which were absent from the original album, as they were never recorded to begin with back then. With Floydian atmospherics galore and Church Choirs, this interpretation is quite a remarkable and creative departure from the first one.

This is the fourth concept album recorded effort by Jacinto M. Corral, and it finds him in all his artistic splendour: the musician exhibits his vast academic knowledge, both from a compositional standpoint, as well as the impeccable execution of diverse musical instruments, in which acoustic sounds prevail. Jacinto's music combines Epic Symphonic Rock with Classical Music, Folk Music, and Medieval Music, as he builds multiple layers of awesome and richly-textured sonic landscapes and instrumentation, besides his own lead singing and the backing vocals.

Second CD by this young, up and coming bunch of lads, whose art and style is so evidently derivative of the Argentine Rock of the seventies (Seru Giran / L.A. Spinetta). A place where a Pop rhythm base and Prog Rock arrangements converge!

Once again, Aldo Pinelli returns with his Invernalia project, throughout which he exposes another of his many musical facets. The compositions here take on a different path from his other ventures. His topics and songs are more Progressive than ever before, and even perhaps in some aspects, darker and more dissimilar from each other.

This legendary Argentine Progressive Rock band was born in the City of Rosario (province of Santa Fé), and shared the stage with the likes of other mythical outfits such as MIA and Redd, who played a similar style of Prog Rock. This historic rescue of live-in-concert-recorded tapes, was part of a cassette that they used to sell at their shows. This edition includes three bonus tracks. The group split in 1981 by pressure of the military censorship of the day and their first disc never got to be released. Irreal featured among their ranks, such Argentine Rock stalwarts as Juan Carlos Baglietto and Adrián Abonizio.

The boys’ 2nd album incorporates various musical textures in a framework referring to trends in current Progressive Song structures. In this case in particular, the lads emerge with a prism of melancholic songs reflecting movement; a universe where many Fusion influences collide (Rock, Jazz, Bossa Nova, Argentine Folk, Theatrical Anthropology, Cinema, and Literature.)

Noteworthy musicians formed this group (García-Epumer-Ferrón-Gancberg) via their link with Luis A. Spinetta, to somehow keep the formidable style that “El Flaco” left behind, alive. Currently composed Jazz Fusion songs bunched with three songs recovered from oblivion for the special occasion.
