KERMIT - Litoral [2014]

KERMIT is a jazz/post-rock project from Malaga (Spain) that was born in 2011 from the desire to experiment with the endless possibilities offered by two guitars, a bass and a drumkit. The result is a landscape of multiple textures that make sense when played together, only when superimposed. KERMIT is a melancholic trip that is sometimes subtle and tender, and some others aggressive and heartbreaking.














Genre - Post-rock | Experimental | Jazz
Country - Spain (Malaga)
Label - Itaca, Pin Records

ATLANTIDA SAVES - The Soundtracks (EP) [2014]

The band Atlantida Saves embodies its musical ideas in context of instrumental music combining pulsing rock energy with sudden mood. The current band's direction has been realized in tunes of fresh album. This record is a result of live experiments with each track, its atmosphere and structure. Despite Moscow descent this material has been inspired by US modern-rock formations, though it is still far from being categorized. Atlantida Saves keeps the breath of big city's everyday life in each track working out an unusual and individual musical approach.
