Label Info:
Sonorium is an independent record label from Germany, producing music in the range of styles like darkwave / gothic / dark metal / dark romantic. Sonorium started its work 2002 in Frankfurt (Germany) as a label platform for underground music in these musical styles.
Sonorium has a sister label called Sonic-X (www.myspace.com/sonicxrecords, www.sonic-x.de). Sonic-X produces electronic underground music from ebm/electro to noise and industrial.
The man behind Sonorium and Sonic-X, Tommy, has been active for years in the gothic and electro/industrial scene as a DJ (club Nachtleben/Frankfurt, Black Obsession /Club Bizarre fetish nights, and many other parties), also as a musician (f.e. Spoox, Blasthead, Adversus, T.H.Industry, Arts Of Erebus) and producer (f.e. Adversus, The Cold, Advocatus Diaboli, Arts Of Erebus, AntiStasis, soundtracks for live-show Die Kleine Gruftschlampe).
During 2005 Sonorium moved from the big city of Frankfurt to a little town called Zweibruecken in the west of Germany (very close to the french border) into a big old house, in which an old dream could be made true in 2006: our own recording studio! The studio now offers a professional music production and mastering, especially for bands of the dark scene (visit www.ts-musix.de).

Recent CD releases by the SONORIUM label:
CURIOUS - "Arrhythmia" SON 015 (CD album, 11 tracks) street date: nov. 14. 2008
New music for the wave-gothic-dancefloor but also for a comfortable evening near the fireplace with a glass of red wine. CURIOUS' second longplayer has been released on 14th November 2008 on the Sonorium label.
The band from Bielefeld/Germany has clearly developed their style and unfolded their very own profile, combining the obvious 80's wave influences with innovative and individual elements. CURIOUS have definitely cultivated and established their own sound with this album.
Songs like "Days", "To Run With The Hare And Hunt With The Hounds" or "J. Mary (Sweetheart)" should easily move the goth and wave dancefloors as well as the already released song "Thrill B" which is included as a bonustrack on the new album. "Resurrection", "Dazzled" or "The Way To Nowhere" are more quiet, emotional songs with a dreamlike ambience.

HEAVY-CURRENT - "Ratrace EP" SON 014 (Web-EP, 9 tracks) street date: sept. 12. 2008
New music by HEAVY-CURRENT! After the big success of their third studio album "Edacious" (2006 Sonorium), the Bielefeld (Germany) based electro-rock band now releases the "Ratrace EP".
This release offers the new song "Ratrace", which is a driving industrial-punk track, and provides a first taste of the upcoming album "Push The Fire". There are also 8 interesting versions of songs from the last album, remixed by NOVASTORM, KAOS-FREQUENZ, VANI and other artists.
"Ratrace" is released as a digital release, available in the most common music donwload shops. There will be a limited amount of CD-copies that can be bought on HEAVY-CURRENT's upcoming live-shows only. HEAVY-CURRENT have produced a videoclip for the "Ratrace" song:
ARTS OF EREBUS - "Icon in Eyes" SON 013 (CD-Album, 12 tracks) street date: april 06. 2007
The new album by the french-german gothic-rock band ARTS OF EREBUS. The band developed their sound into a more rock orientated and more powerful style with a clear increase of speed. But even with this new power and the integration of style elements from classical gothic rock guitars over modern electronic elements up to influences from punk music, the compositions by ARTS OF EREBUS still keep the feeling of the melancholic gothic-rock of the early 90s. Includes the club-hits "Thousand Ways to Die" - already known from their 2006 free web single - and "Dawn of the Dead".

ADVERSUS - "Laya" SON 012 (CD-Mini-Album, 5 tracks + Datatrack) street date: april 06. 2007
German Gothic-Crossover act ADVERSUS released a mini-album after their 2 successful longplay albums. Unlike the mostly driving, beat-dominated and complexe-opulent combination of metal, classical and electronic elements on the former ADVERSUS albums, "Laya" presents the band‘s calm and slow side with acoustic instruments and folk or classical melodies. The title song "Laya oder die Ballade vom schwarzen Stein" (Laya or the ballad of the black stone) is a celtic myths inspired gothic-folk-song showing the typical ADVERSUS-style of interacting male and female vocals in its more than 14 minutes of playing time. Also contains the longer album version of "Der Wind auf den Feldern", which was a free promotional track in a shortened mix. "Laya" offers 5 audio-tracks and a data section with a live-videoclip.

CHARLETT SCHWARZ - "Behind a Face" SON 011 (CD-Album, 12 tracks) street date: nov 16. 2006 CHARLETT SCHWARZ's debut album mixes up various styles from the dark and gothic music scene. "Behind a Face" is the first collection of songs by the young german band CHARLETT SCHWARZ, formed around singer and composer Veyna Muhr. Dark and melancholic atmospheres change to a powerful chorus in the wink of an eye. There is not one single stopgap, each song has it's own unique raison d'être. Variability and the experimental mingling of different styles are what keeps the band‘s creativity on the go. It's mainly Veyna's very own style of voice, which defines the character of the band and its means of recognition.

ADVOCATUS DIABOLI - "Sternenmarsch" SON 010 (CD-Album, 10 tracks) street date: oct 06. 2006 ADVOCATUS DIABOLI perform a modern gothic-rock style with danceable beats and powerfull electronics. Danceable, thrilling beats, dark guitar-riffs and expressive bass-lines form the base for the devilish fundament, where powerful, electronic sound creations with distinctive male vocals and infatuated femal vocals melt to a spellbinding symphony of darkness which will not leave any part of your bodies without motions and emotions. This german group around singer and songwriter Thomas Jaekel has already attracted great attention in performing on stage with - amongst others - Das Ich, ASP and Zeraphine as well as with the band's grandiose former CD releases "Enter your Forest" and "Sterbend durch die Sonne".

HEAVY-CURRENT - "Edacious" SON 009 (CD-Album, 10 tracks) street date: sept 15. 2006
Alternative Rock and Dark Electro are perfectly combined in this album. The german electro-rock band HEAVY-CURRENT has released their third studio album "Edacious" in late 2006, which is showing the band from a new and more rock side, whereas furthermore also the electronic and danceable factor is coming to the fore. Elements of rock music are meeting wide synthetic parts and melodies. The results of this special symbiosis are impelling hymns and club capable sounds: Electro meets Rock! Songs like "Question of Faith", "DBN" or "House of Shame" are showing, by the use of guitar and drums, how HEAVY-CURRENT can combine Guitar Rock and Electro to an equal concept for clubs and stages. The coactions of aggressive guitars, fat drums and warm Synth parts are building their typical sound.
