El Ultimo Sol es un encuentro entre mundos.
Un cruce de caminos entre realidades, vibraciones y sonidos, donde lo antiguo, el pasado y el presente, se unen formando un espacio sin tiempo. El tiempo se diluye creando un círculo sagrado. Para nosotros es un vínculo íntimo y personal, una relación con lo salvaje, con lo mistérico de este mundo aparentemente corriente, y de otros mundos ocultos a la vista, y que convergen en un mismo punto, en un mismo instante. Un oasis en medio de una vida que empuja a correr, a no tener tiempo para sentir. Un lugar donde todo se detiene para reconectar con lo esencial, con lo primitivo e instintivo, volviendo al origen.
En este proyecto están involucrados Gemma A. y Daniel P.Daniel P. es miembro fundador de Arnica, Wihinei Rita, Ghazghkull y colaborador tanto en estudio como en directo con bandas como Death In June, Allerseelen, Blood Axis, Traum´er Leben, entre otros.

EL ULTIMO SOL is a encounter between worlds. A cross roads between realities, vibrations and sounds, where the old, the past and the present come together to form a time less space.
Time is diluted creating a sacred circle. For usitisan intimate and personal link, a relation ship with the wild, with the mysterious of this apparently ordinary world, and of other worlds hidden from view, and that converge at the same point, at the same moment. An oasis in the middle of a life that pushes you to run, to not have time to feel. A place where everything stops to reconnect with the essential, with the primitive and instinctive, returning to the origin.
In this project Gemma A. and Daniel P. are involved.Daniel P. is founding member of Arnica, Wihinei Rita, Ghazghkull, and collaborator both in studio and live with bands such as Death In June, Allerseelen, Blood Axis, Traum´er Leben, among others.

-Iberian Ur-Folk- Àrnica is an Iberian based Ur-Folk project. Its music deals with old keltiberian roots, tradition, ancient Gods, values and nature warrior anthems.
Using instruments like electroacustic guitar, flutes, goliaths, wooden drums, cimbals, cowbells, horns, totem sticks, some of them self-made, all the music develops side by side with their chants.
Since 2008, Àrnica has been growing strong on stages of several european countries. Portugal, Spain, France, Switzerland, Austria, Germany, Poland and Lituania has count with this brave band for concerts and festivals.
Its on stage where Àrnica develops the power of its music. Powerful, contundent and intense concerts planned as Rituals where all audience senses are involved. Also develops acoustic concerts, exploring more intimate and close feelings and energies. Àrnica has played by Cromlechs, Sacred Trees, rivers…
The band has been collaborating with other wellknown band of the scene as Sturmpercht, Camerata Mediolanense, Andrew King, Traum’er Leben, Svarrogh… and share stage with Death In June, Blood Axis, Orplid/Barditus, Of the Wand and the Moon, etc…
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.
Label: Equilibrium Music – EQM035 Format: CD, Album, Digipak Country: Portugal Released: 2017 Style: Ur -Folk
A Wolf’s head shape is tearing apart the mist. Howlings in the distance bring silence to an end, the throbbing of blood now resounding in wardrums.
For well over 10 years, ÀRNICA have been patiently carving their niche in the Neo-Folk scene. The genre’s free form aesthetics have served as a perfect starting ground, yet were quickly subdued by ÀRNICA’s own vision as they delved into Iberian lore and tradition to find both a wealth of musical references and the spiritual elements that would shape them into a unique entity.
Well acquainted with the Post-Industrial school of experimentation and sound manipulation, ÀRNICA were quick to make good use of its tools and techniques. Loops, samples and field-recordings merge seamlessly into traditional acoustic instrumentation, adding fine details and rural textures to their vivid portrayal of a world forgotten. This primal legacy to which ÀRNICA are devoted further manifests through the savage drumming, the warhorns and the battle cries, as sound ultimately transforms into a mesmerizing ritual.
Following numerous live appearances, which have brought ÀRNICA to share the stage with bands like WARDRUNA, DEATH IN JUNE, BLOOD AXIS or TYR, the band now join Equilibrium Music for their third full-lenght album, one which successfully captures the raw archaic energy of their shows into recorded form.
Much like an alchemic transmutation of lead into gold, ÀRNICA’s new offering shapes Ur-Folk into Ritual music, distilled under the scorching sun of Iberia to bring one of the most menacing and intense releases ever related to the genre. The album speaks of an old ruler that inspired his kin to fight back against those who sought to take their ground, back in an age forlorn where man and beast were as one. Now, more than pay mere tribute, ÀRNICA call upon Cabeza de Lobo to lead the Wild Men once again, in a much needed return to wilderness

‘Lecho de Piedra’ (‘Deadbed Stone’) is the new long play by Àrnica. The iberians are back with an Ur-Folk offering full of harsh-folk tunes (‘Valle de Lobos’), nature chants (‘Monte Nublado-Cima’, ‘Trazos de Sangre’) and warrior poetry (‘Monte Nublado-Ladera’, ‘Las Plumas del Cuervo’). Dealing with the concept of die over the stone, in a mountain or within the forest. To die outside among the nature. Guitar, flutes, accordion, mouth harp, a lot of diferents drums, gralla, catalonian bagpipe, stones, bones, antlers, ratchets, cowbells, field recordings and a couple of samplers were used for the creation of this new piece. Created as a spiral block the offering reveals a journey through old values and feelings. A very special collaboration in ‘Una Bestia Astada’ track: Jay Kokopeli (Traum’er Leben) joined us with his wild breath.
Àrnica – Viejo Mundo Label: Percht Catalog#:Percht11 Format:CD, Digipak Style:Acoustic, Neofolk, Alpine Folk
The artist’s interests are deep rooted in the ancient Iberian culture and traditions. Their music is a mix of traditional Pyrenne Folk and heathen Battle and Hunting-songs. Their first fullength-album „Viejo Mundo“ is a tale narrated by an old man as his last legacy to a casual traveler. In a hut and near by fire the traveler will be the depositor of ancient knowledge about forgotten gods, wisdom of life, tradition and statements of war. All lyrics and singing is in spanish or catalan language. A wide range of instruments is used, on top of them accordion, guitars, drums and flutes. ÀRNICA creates wild and rural atmospheres, quite similar to their friends from STURMPERCHT, but just from the opposite part of the holy Alps.

South European Folk Compendium Label:Ahnstern Catalog: Ahnstern37 Format: CD Country: Austria Style: Dark Ambient, Modern Classical, Neofolk
This thriple-split CD is a unique compendium of South European folk music, inspired by Balkan, Catalan and Hellenic traditional culture. The sources and the stylistic devices of the three artists are quite different and descending from three different cultural regions, but there is just one intention and one deep mythological spirit, that unites the musicians to build up an axis through the mediterranean sunlit landscapes. On this album you will drown into the ritual, Alpine-Folk shamanism of Árnica, using a wide range of traditional instruments and the spirit of Catalunya – Svarrogh drags you to the deep and dark forests of Bulgaria by slavic chants, where you will meet the god Veles in his wooden shrine – and you will waft through a droning and apocalyptic haze to the powerful and emotional hellenic spheres of Défilé des Ames from Greece.
