Spanish project GARTH ARUM re-emerges through time with its debut album, marking the dawn of a new passion, of a new fire. ‘The Dawn of New Creation’ is ispired by dreams and emotions, venturing further into the depths of the human mind. A demiurge that leads the path to a new universe, beyond the notion of existence. This is the album of a lifetime, a deliverance of body and soul of the album’s creator NIGHTMARER, which is finally complete more than ten years after its initial conception.

You can listen to an early preview of the album, entitled ‘ A … Read more

C-Jeff – Preschtale

by Dæv Tremblay

Coming from Mother Russia is Virgil Donati and Derek Sherinian playing with old video gaming systems.

Chiptune, 8-bit, electronica, progressive, and a heavy dose of groove is what characterizes the artist. Melodies, riffs, solos, ambiances are all absolutely mindblowing.

Seriously, it’s like an 8-bit Planet X record, which says a lot about the talent of Dmitry Zhemkov, who is the one behind most of this!

If you have the slightest appreciation for music, you will absolutely fall in love with this amazing album. And I’m at a lack of words for it. It’s just… perfect!

8-bit metal special!

by Dæv Tremblay

Do you remember the time when video games had awfully ugly graphics, and music of the worst quality possible, but still providing us with memorable musics; as in Super Mario Bros., Castlevania, Megaman…

Some musicians today want to revive this era, for your musical pleasure.

8 bit melodic instruments backed with programmed drums will probably make you raise an eyebrow. Such quality-crushed instruments with a such good sounding drum is indeed rather bizarre, but given the harshness of 8-bit drums, we can forgive, and gladly accept it.

Kinship Synthesis is full of melodies that would fit like a glove … Read more
