Between May and September of 2012 Rubens Vitale (Donvi) was interviewed by renowned Argentine Music Journalist Pablo Arias, with whom he shared the ideas which animated and impacted all of his existence as a political leader, trade unionist, point of reference in Argentina for the self-management of musical production, and professor. His project is to pour all of these experiences in a book aimed at the youth. Unfortunately he wasn't able to bring it to a conclusion, as he sadly passed away on October 27. Donvi was an excellent exhibitor, as well as a vast creator of ideas, and possessed a very particular method which combined timings, spaces, and collection of topics, that somehow all finally converged and combined together to flow into a central proposal.

This Instrumental quartet was formed back in 1979 in the city of Rosario (province of Santa Fé, Argentina). After a brief lapse during their first incarnation in the eighties, the band got back together again in the year 2000, and finally unveiled their very first album in 2004. The group sticks out especially because of their twin lead guitars, which provide a melodic type of sound consisting of sophisticated, Jazz-orientated cadences within a sonic structure that is primordially centered in Progressive Hard Rock, and with evident influences by the likes of such referential luminaries as Rush, Yes, Led Zeppelin, Jeff Beck, and Crucis.

This is already the third studio-recorded effort by this incredibly original Argentine outfit, in which they manage to consolidate their peculiar, yet very effective style of combining Kraut Rock, American Psychedelia, and Spaghetti Western-ambiented atmospherics.

Originally hailing from the Pacific coastal city of Valparaiso, Chile, this is a Power Progressive Instrumental Trio. The chaps have a decidedly marked inclination towards Jazz Rock Fusion, which includes plenty of Latin American rhythmic influences, as well as even affording Rock riffs through impecabbly-sounding clean guitars, which in actual fact are the group's principle characteristic.

New Chilean Instrumental project led by guitarist Richard Pilnik (Entrance). The combo's concoction is orientated towards combining Symphonic elements, Fusion and Prog Metal, thus making the group's sound not too far off from that of bands such as Planet X. There is a very strong presence of guitars (a la Allan Holdsworth and Steve Vai) and absorbing keyboards.

Carlos Kuraiem is a poet, writer and musician who sang during the last Argentine dictatorship (between 1976 & 1983) in several different theatres around the city of Buenos Aires. The album's mostly Folk Rock tunes, which have an obvious Protest feel and orientation in the lyric department, were recorded by utilising a portable studio back in 1984.

What we have here is the very first project by this group, which compiles and promotes music written by composers enrolled within the vast stylistic frontiers of Argentine Jazz. The outfit works on a basic formation, and then rotates the keyboards player, as well as the singer. Musicians of the undeniable calibre and quality of Diego Schissi, Juan Raffo, and Nicolás Sorín, amongst others, participate in this extraordinary and authentically originally unique project.

First recorded outing by this Prog / Symphonic quartet, which presents all of its vocal parts sung in Spanish. Their music goes through passages which are reminiscent of the sonic grandeur from Argentine Rock's glorious seventies' period, and show remarkable influences by the likes of Luis Alberto Spinetta, Charly Garcia, and many others.

Contacto is a band of musicians that transits cleverly and creatively between songs of a Progressive Rock orientation (albeit with a definite Hard Rock tint) and Post Rock.
