Agoria

"The Green Armchir" (out 11.10.2006 Pias/RTD)
Electronic music, sometimes sounding like e-punk, ambient and industrial music, sometimes even with a Trip Hop touch.

Beta Band: Best Of

Beta Band:
The Best Of Beta Band
out 29.09.2005

From the very beginning, when they brought out their debut EP called "Champion Versions" in 1997, Beta Band were well known in Great Britain. Three friends from Edinburgh started the group: vocalist Stephen Mason, drummer Robin Jones and DJ/sampler John Maclean. Bass player Richard Greentree joined the group later. They never tried to imitate any other music. Beta Band's songs are a mix of different types of songs and styles – everything from ballads and 60s garage to British pop, grunge and post punk. The band loved performing live on stage, and they never stopped experimenting with their innovative and fantastic music.

Do you remember the Smashing Pumpkins and their dark wonderful music? They were one of the rock’s top dogs in the mid 90is and their influence still is recognizable if you watch, for example, videos of The Killers. The Smashing Pumpkins were one of the most popular alternative psychedelic rock groups. They placed songs in movies like Lost Highway or Batman & Robin. But they broke up in the year 2000.

Did you know? The 1980s are back! At least that's what some people are saying. 1980s-style parties are popular and radio shows are playing the music of the 1980s again. So what does this mean? We know some famous bands from the 1980s, like Depeche Mode and U2, never really went away. It means that now – twenty years later – new artists and musicians are using all kinds of forgotten styles from the past.

Cosmic Rough Riders

The Stars look differen from down here (out 22.05.2006 WEA Internat.)
Wie gewohnt, kommen die Herren aus Glasgow ganz klassisch daher: E-Gitarre und Gesang, Akustikgitarre, Schlagzeug und Bass. Allerdings klingen sie nicht wie Britenpop, sondern wie guter alter Westcoast Sound mit tiefsinnigen Texten und schönen Melodien.

Luca

"Sick of Love" (VÖ 26.01.2007 India Records/RTD)
Die einen sagen dazu „Power-Pop“, die anderen „Desert Rock“. Luca machen in jedem Fall zeitgemäße Rockmusik mit schönen Melodien und saftigen Gitarren, die Calexico und Giant Sand Fans mit Sicherheit zusagt.

out 27.01.2006

If you're wondering, “Z” doesn’t stand for “Zorro” on this album. Like its one-letter title, this CD is a completely surprising album by the band My Morning Jacket. It includes all different kinds of music styles.

The original members of the band come from Louisville, in the US state of Kentucky, and they build their music around the vocals and songwriting talent of front man Jim James. He founded the band with his cousin Johnny Quaid (guitar), Two-Tone Tommy (bass) and Patrick Hallahan (drums). After two of the members left the band because they were on tour too much, Bo Koster and Carl Broemel joined them.
