Aviador Dro are without a doubt the most avant-garde and influential techno-pop band from Spain. They started in 1979 and this year are celebrating their 40th anniversary playing shows, re-releasing some old works, publishing a book and also a new album.
«Acción Contra El Pasado” was recorded in Madrid in December of 1980 and is one of the oldest live performances of which there is a recording evidence. This concert is legendary not only for its age, but also for including some unreleased songs, a couple of early covers by Kraftwerk and Sex Pistols and vintage versions of classic tracks. «Aviador Dro y su Maquinaria Humana» (exactly as it was announced on the original flyer) was formed at that time by Biovac N, Fox Cicloide, Placa Tumbler, Derflex Tipo IARR, CTA 102, X, Metalina 2 and Cyberjet. A priceless piece of history restored and remastered from the original cassette recorded directly from the mixing desk.
Drawings created by the Polish artist Michał Arkusiński.
The Frozen Autumn – Pale Awakening (2 × Vinyl, Blue) Label: Avantgarde Music / AV447LP Format: 2 × Vinyl, Album, Reissue, Blue Country: Italy Released: 2022 Style: New Wave, Synth-pop, Darkwave
Pale Awakening is the debut album by The Frozen Autumn, which originally saw the light in 1995 following the demotape Oblivion and various live gigs in Italy and abroad. These led to the CD release of this concept album with crepuscular sounds, at times inspired by the sound of 4AD and Projekt Records, that unfold between reflective and atmospheric moments, imbued with melancholy with more rhythmic openings, yet always characterized by a common feature: the oniric plane, the certainty of the existence of parallel realities, the escape from everyday life to embark on an inner journey, aware that «there is something beyond».
27 years after the first edition, Avantgarde Music re-releases Pale Awakening in two valuable collectible formats: 12 «colored double vinyl in a gatefold cover with lyrics.

Trepaneringsritualen. Industrial ritual project founded by Swedish artist Thomas Martin Ekelund (born 1977), based in Göteborg. Active since 2008. Also called T x R x P and Teeraal Räum Pheynix.
Crvor Martyrivm is the new one-man musical project from the French-Spanish sound artist Alberto Hernández Serradilla, a.k.a. XIII, main mastermind behind the Spanish cult Dark Esoteric Ritual Ambient Industrial act NOTHVS FILIVS MORTIS.
After a long 10 year hiatus from the alternative Post Industrial music scene, XIII returns with this new side project, still deeply rooted in the Post Industrial musical tradition. However, whereas Nothvs Filivs Mortis concentrates on developing sonic & aural Dark Ambient & Ritual Industrial soundscapes with a strong Middle Age / Occult / Hermetic & Esoteric background, CRVOR MARTYRIVM still delves into apocalyptic & bleak sonic imagery, but with a much more traditional & formal musical approach, adopting an Avantgarde Orchestral Symphonic Martial Industrial musical form, albeit retaining some Dark Ambient elements.
Reminiscences of LAIBACH, IN SLAUGHTER NATIVES, LES JOYAUX DE LA PRINCESSE, THE MOON LAY HIDDEN BENEATH A CLOUD & IN THE NURSERY, to name just a few, can be heard in this new musical endeavour, allowing XIII to draw musical allegories of the world & society we live in nowadays, filled with personal yet intimate feelings & thoughts about the End of Days we are currently witnessing…
Scumearth. Harsh experimental electronic & dark ambient noise artist from Spain, also is a member of We are the Hunters and the Sci-Fi noise electronics Scum & Bones (disbanded). Also is a ghost member a support live and studio of the horror grind core band Machetazo.
