Ritmos oscuros del bailar muy sucio: Fasenuova (Discos Humeantes / ES)
We are really happy to announce a new and exciting addition to our European roster: Fasenuova (Discos Humeantes / Spain). The duo consisting of Ernesto Avelino and Roberto Lobo is one of the first bands confirmed for this year’s Incubate Festival in Tilburg, Netherlands in September 2013, where they will sharing the stage with bands like Front 242, Built to Spill, Prurient, Shannon and the Clams, My Cat is An Alien and many more. The band will also be available for a bunch of dates during the same period around Europe.
Fasenuova is the perfect combination of dark rhythms that seem to come from an obscure and foggy forest, a forest full of vintage keyboards and primitive drum machines. After the release of their first record “A la Quinta Hoguera” (Discos Humeantes, 2011), the band was invited to play in the most reputed music festivals in Spain like Primavera Sound in Barcelona, Tanned Tin in Castellón and LEV in Asturias. The album was included in many best of the year lists and was critically acclaimed by the most important media in Spain such as El País, Rock de Lux and Playground Magazine. International media like Pitchfork in the US and The Guardian in the UK also mentioned the band as “band to watch” in their recent explorations of the Spanish independent music scene.
Their first LP is full of shaking and transgressing sonic treasures that test the limits of the most rugged and experimental electronic music. Oppressive and hypnotic sounds that rise from the depths of the Spanish Asturian mining area, where the wilderness is facing the industrial legacy. We could talk about Throbbing Gristle, Suicide, Esplendor Geométrico or Cabaret Voltaire, but the truth is that Fasenuova have managed to carve a wholly unmatched and magnetic identity. The band creates an exciting and absolutely essential sonic space where occultist folk and industrial music come together in an extreme amalgam, inviting us to dance and be driven by obsessive rhythms and electric shocks that lead us to a truly unique sound and a total physical experience.
Already on the works is a new LP, another distorted and noisy electric storm that will make BUM! into your head and heart later this year, which the band will be promoting during their first European Tour this September.

Por fin podemos anunciar que nos vamos a encargar de la primera gira por Europa de este pedazo de cohete espacial venido de la preciosa Asturias y el poderoso Mieres, y para hacerlo no podemos tener mejores noticias: Fasenuova es una de las primeras confirmaciones del Incubate Festival 2013, a llevarse a cabo en Tilburg, Holanda, uno de nuestros festivales preferidos y por cuyos escenarios se han paseado bandas como Nurse with Wound, Anthony Rother, Chris and Cosey, The Fall, entre muchos otros.
Próximos a editar un nuevo disco y abrazados nuevamente por el sello asturiano Discos Humeantes, lo que hace la dupla conformada por Ernesto Avelino y Roberto Lobo es una especie de nebulosa muy oscura viajando por toda la fábrica, de punta a punta. Sus canciones (también conocidas como temazos en esta casa y en varias más) son engranajes perfectos donde la grasa chorrea por los bordes, espesa, bien negra y pulsante.
Fasenuova te lleva a bailar allí donde los lobos ya terminan de devorar indefensas presas, donde el bosque empieza a darte miedo. Bienvenidos a la máquina oscura donde despegan los sentidos, el orden natural de las cosas puesto patas arriba y mirando al espacio exterior.
