Cesar Inca wrote me that he got ZePTo and he really likes it and to him it is the album that shows that NeBeLNeST have matured and found their sound, RIO sound. He also says that they have gone more experimental this time.

Well, I haven't heard it yet, but given the fact that I liked their previous NoVa eXPReSS, even though it took some time to sink in, I will definitely get this (I saw it for 13$ on Laser's Edge. Of someone sees for less, let us know).

Anyone else heard it?

Adam (Black Velvet) has added the Belgians Fukkeduk to PA:

 
 
I added Doctor Nerve (I almost suffered a nervous breakdown trying to write their bio):

Nick Didkovsky along with John Roual from Forever Einstein along with Hugh Hopper colaborated on a project. Didkovsky also produced the second Forever Einstein album.

Maybe Adam can assist when he returns?
I am speaking with him these days actually when he is available. I got help from Cesar Inca on this addition, so it should be ok now. I was a bit ambitious with the original bio I wrote, and I will make a simpler one. The one I did for Forever Einsten took a lot of time and efforts, and not much was left for Dr. Nerve.

I will certainly make a request.  It's just they're quite a remote band still and I am reluctant to upload the album... unless they are willing to add them without hearing them.  I think word of mouth from you, myself and Chamberry should be enough though.
 
Start the thread there.
Chamberry and myself will come and support the addition.
 
 
 
 
Anyways, back to our stuff.
This is for everyone,
I hope to add the Israeli RIO/Kleyzmer outfit - Kruzenshtern and Parohod soon.
Go to their websites for samples:
 
 
 
 
Some more links with reviews and info about them:
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Adam told me he liked them as well.

Joren: Assaf summed up Astrid Proll perfectly, but do check out my review.

Talking of Astrid Proll... I heard from Agustםn again today and he says he and the rest of the band are looking very much forward to their addition to PA, so when will this happen?  Just curious!
 
I don't remember if you proposed them in the collab linge or not.
If no, there is the place to start.
(and if you are going for Art-Rock, then I suggest adressing the new Art-Rock team: Raffaella and Micky).

I have done the bio for Otolithen and am now in the finishing process of the Forever Einstein bio.
 
After that I will work on the Doctor Nerve bio and finally on the Israeli band's bio - Kruzenshtern & Parohod.
 
I hope to have the first two added by this weekend and the other two next week (but I am not promising anything.
I am using every spare moments to work on their additions).
 
With every addition made, I will post the link here as well. So you can all rush and write reviews.... LOL
 


As if... LOL I'm afraid you're the only one who actually works here, Assaf. Wink

I was going over the Zeuhl list bands here and saw this (again) - This French band PSEU which has no bio and only one rating w/o review.

Anyone heard them, by any chance?
 
 
 
 
Oh and Yukorin, I am making progress with the list....

Astrid Pröll you say?

Artist Information

 Instrumentation
 Agustin Criollo - Bass guitar, Vocals, Synth, Guitars
Georgie Castro- Guitars, Alto Sax
Fernando Rosado - Drums
Andres Lugo - Prepared guitars, percussion, synth.

 Biography
 Formed in summer 2004 by 4 veterans of the local experimental music scene:Astrid Proll adds up to the new local avant-garde musical movement with a challenging and broad sound. The innevitable conclusion of more than 15 years of musical career. Agustin "Chito" Criollo on Bass guitar, Synths and Vocals; Georgie Castro-Ramirez on Guitars and Alto Sax; Andres Lugo on Synths, Prepared Guitars and Percussion and Fernando Rosado on Drums and Percussion compose this already infamous quartet of Experiemental Prog-Psyche Rock band. It is intended that Astrid Pröll's musical proposal, at times chaotic at times apocalyptic, mirrors the social and political reality that surrounds it. Their debut CD, released on the local indie label Noisex Records, depicts the cornerstone of all future AP's recordings blending some of the most visible influences of tha band together in a "Hallucinating Journey of Epic Proportions through Frenetic Rythms and Blissfull Noise..." This is only the beginning of a new cicle for these not-so-new performers from the local scene. An innevitable evolution towards a musical territory much more faithful to their music's reality. The developing of a work space that will be able to integrate the artist and his endevour. Be that as it may, we will always know it as Astrid Pröll.

Discography
 "The Astrid Pröll Bootleg" (EP) 2004
"Astrid Pröll" (CD) 2006



SmileGreat band. Great album. Very diverse (from Kraut, to post-rock to RIO, to KC influence to jazz to ambience and more!). Geck0 made a review of them at RYM so check it out as well.

Who/what is this Astrid Pröll anyway? It seems like it's all you've been listening to lately. Tongue

Don't forget Astrid Proll of Puerto Rico. Wink

Overall, they're probably more Art Rock, but one track in particular 88MHz is definitely RIO/Avant-Garde and oh what a track it is!

Recommend to you guys for sure.
