amduscia

in the medieval demonology it is said that there was a duke from hell specially dedicated to music, who could offer a concert without the audience, being able to see the instruments being performed. roughly translated, that's ''amduscia'' - an ''dark waved electronic / dark electro / e.b.m. / industrial / aggrotech'' band born in 1999, in ''mexico city''. the first ''amduscia'' were: ''polo'' (vocal, lyrics & music arrangements), ''edgar'' (synth programming, sampling, mixing) & ''raul'' (lyrics). however, years after ''amduscia'' had turned into a two-person project with the only remaining members being ''polo'' & ''edgar''. sadly, on march 28th 2010 ''edgar acevedo'' dies due to medical complications:

dreddup

this beast came to reality on 4th of june 1997 in the small suicide city of ''novi sad'', located in serbia (europe). this child changed its sound rapidly, from butterfly to hungry beast, from pornographic to art, from culture to insanity. in its early years, child produced several works of video art, film soundtracks & theatre music. collaboration with many underground acts & artists also took place in its career. it began to feed with first sounds on ''abnormal waltz'' (being released for netherlands-based netlabel, ''dadaist audio'', in 1998).
exploring the dark sides of the human mind the second work, ''mr. borndead's feast'' (2004), had its good vibes & some extremely bad ones. many commercial segments destroyed the beauty of the original songs because child was hungry for sex. this work talked about the past & the bloody feast of the close minded.
2004's it began to walk continuing to expand & redefine its sound & purpose. a substantial increase in live performances - once an unheard of rarity - has lead to much greater recognition by a new generation of fans. child was ready to eat your souls & fuck your whores.
in 2005, holland music label ''mooc sound records'', released ''mr. borndead's feast'' in digipak format.
child began to scream.
next work came in august 16th 2007 - ''future porn machine''. this new work sounded more darker & more ''industrial rock'' than the previous one leaving the production rough. the main concept was the pornographic future, where art = pornography = art where machines are replaced by humans. ''insurrection records'' from ''belgrade'' (serbia) recognized it & released it. the whole idea now went to the ''crossover'' sound. child began to fuck hard.
third work ''el conquistadors'' was finished in late 2008. this was meant to be totally different from the previous works. new taste followed more ''post-industrial'' & less melodies, including some very dark whispers & new insanity in live performance. its concept was to bring the old sound from the 80's back to life. this work was the last one in time trilogy talking about the present tense & human inner boundaries. it was officially released in serbia for ''insurrection records'' on march the 6th of 2009. child began to kill.
in 2010 child re-mastered & re-released it's third work for ''industrial'' music label ''beast of prey'' from poland.
next work came out in february 2011 - ''dreddup'' was released.
this 4th work came out as a surprise to the audience as the sound changed rapidly. this new taste was labeled ''personal horror diary'' from one of the press critics. this work defines the darker side of the child's taste & goes beyond ''el conquistadors''. it was a complete abandonment of genres & this is now pure fucking insanity. child fell asleep.

japan

formed in ''london'', england in early 1974, ''japan'' comprised ''david alan batt'' (a.k.a. ''david sylvian'', on vocals), his brother ''stephen batt'' (a.k.a. ''steve jansen'', on drums), ''richard barbieri'' (on keyboards) & ''anthony michelides'' (a.k.a. ''mick karn'', on saxophone & bass). a guitarist, ''rob dean'', was added to the line-up when the band won a recording contract with the german record company ''ariola-hansa''.
eminently unfashionable in the u.k. ''punk'' era, they first found success in japan.
after three albums with ''ariola-hansa'', they switched to ''virgin records'' in 1980 & found their fortunes dramatically improving thanks to the surge of popularity in the ''new romantic'' movement.
japan's androgynous image made them suddenly fashionable & they registered several top 20 singles.
disagreements between ''karn'' & ''sylvian'' undermined the band's progress just as they were achieving some long-overdue success, & they split in late 1982.
the members diversified into collaborative work & solo careers, reuniting (minus ''dean'') in 1991 for a project under the moniker of ''rain tree crow'':
