BISCUIT: "Cinnamon
Fadeout" Classicism
mixed with the spirirt of the indie generation, and far from
hypes and arty stuff. Guitar rock that flirts with melody, transparent
music by transparent musicians. Produced by Santi Garcia and mastered
by Bob Weston (of Shellac). This is their fourth album and they're
well-known thanks to their live sweaty performances, having played with
the MC5, The Dexateens or Boss Martians. They can also be proud of
having played at legendary The Cavern in Liverpool, where The Beatles
made their debut.

independent rock like Farside, Shades Apart, Lazycain, Piebald or Ruth
Ruth. Produced by Santi Garcia, quality guaranteed.

BACKFLIP:
"Dead man in Barcelona" Don't
expect new tendencies, humanism or other usual aspects of the
musical world. Backflip helps the others in the only way he knows,
singing absurd melodies and going from here to there with three or four
chords randomly chosen. Oh, and the beat.House,
Electro, whatever sound Barcelona can offer and makes you feel like a
total freak. 5 amazing songs produced by Eric Fuentes (The Unfinished
Sympathy).

Paraíso" While
he leads
Barcelona's rock outfit The Unfinished Sympathy, Eric has written,
performed and produced this collection of 10 masterpieces, from
cut-and-paste acoustic to symphonic electronic. A semi-automatic
trobadour, he plays everything from rhythm programming and drumming to
vocals, passing through layers of synthesiser and guitar soaring.

HALF FOOT OUTSIDE/THE
UNFINISHED SYMPATHY:
"A new defense/Learning imaginary numbers" As
these two bands started to get the aknowledgement of music media and
audience, they gave us a couple of unreleased tracks, one by each band,
to celebrate the debut of this humble label. From Pamplona, Half foot
outside re-recorded their, in our opinion, best song ever, and renamed
it "A new defense". And from Barcelona, The Unfinished Sympathy showed
their magic in the amazing "Learning imaginary numbers" from their
debut LP sessions.
