MARKONEE originate from the lively Rock scene of Bologna, Italy, where the band was founded by guitar player Stefano Peresson (ex-Danger Zone) back in 1999 together with guitar player Carlo Bevilacqua. Adapting their band name from the Italian radio pioneer Guglielmo Marconi the band’s  sound carries on the Classic Hard Rock in the tradition of genre favorites such as Winger, Ratt, Warrant, Skid Row, Pink Cream 69, Firehouse and Gotthard.

So far the band has released two records, “The Spirit Of Radio” (2006), a concept album about the invention of the radio, and “See The Thunder” (2009), which was mixed and mastered by Beau Hill (Alice Cooper, Europe, Ratt, Winger). MARKONEE toured mainland Europe and the United Kingdom extensively in support of their second album, performing dozens of shows with the likes of Winger, Gotthard, White Lion, The Sweet, Molly Hatchet, Tyketto, Soul Doctor, Y&T, L.A. Guns and House Of Shakira.

“Club Of Broken Hearts”, their brand new, third release, marks the recording debut of singer Alessio Trapella, who joined the band in 2011. For their latest effort the Italian five-piece recorded 12 original tunes and delivers their strongest set of songs up to today.

This time the album was mixed & mastered by Roberto Priori (Danger Zone, Wheels Of Fire), “Club Of Broken Hearts” also features a guest performance by Michele Luppi (Los Angeles, Secret Sphere, ex-Vision Divine). The album sees the band rocking a little harder than on their previous record, offering driving guitars, majestic vocals and a driving big time groove. Highlights include the rock anthem “I Say No”, the catchy title track, the cleverly arranged “Shaken & Stirred” and the musical tribute to their hometown, “Rock City”.

Alessio Trapella - Vocals

Stefano Peresson – Lead, Rhythm & Acoustic Guitars, Keyboards

When Indigo Balboa and Paco Cerezo started to work together in 2008 they felt that their musical talents are a perfect match. At the time the Spanish duo started to compose songs together and founded the band INDICCO, Indigo Balboa had just returned from California where he was working on his second solo album with the well known musician/song writer/producer Mark Spiro and Paco Cerezo had just left the internationally renowned Spanish Melodic Rock band 91 Suite of which he was the co-founder and guitar player.

Three years in the making, Karmalion” marks INDICCO’s debut album, a pure Melodic Rock affair of international quality, combining fresh new ideas with the classic AOR trademarks of the bands that inspired INDICCO’s sound, like Survivor, Giant, John Waite, Toto and Bad English.

Karmalion” unites the Spanish Melodic Rock elite with three iconic AOR heavyweights, underlining the high musical standard the band is aiming for :

Jimi Jamison (Survivor), one of the best vocalists of the AOR genre, is sharing lead vocals with Indigo Balboa on three tracks, did backing vocals and co-wrote a song as well.

Mark Spiro (Bad English, Giant, John Waite, Mr. Big) co-wrote and recorded vocals for three songs of the album. He also played piano and keyboards and took care of parts of the production at his studio in Carlsbad, California.

Tim Pierce (Rick Springfield, John Waite, Eric Martin), one of the most in demand session guitar players on the globe is featured on additional guitars.

The album was produced by Indigo Balboa, Paco Cerezo and Mark Spiro and the band INDICCO is completed by Antonio Muñoz (ex-91 Suite) on bass, Lean Martinez (ex-91 Suite) on drums and Angel Valdegrama on keys.

In their home country where they toured with Jimi Jamison and several other international acts the band already won praise for their powerful live sound.

This year INDICCO will be on tour again to promote their album “Karmalion”, on some dates they will be sharing the stage with Jimi Jamison.

Liebe Medienpartner,

wie bereits vorab angekündigt, erscheint bei Eagle Vision/Edel am 31.05.2013 die neue DVD von FRANK ZAPPA. Weitere Details zum Produkt finden Sie weiter unten.

Wir sind zuständig für Printpresse aus Deutschland und Österreich. Bereits bei uns angefragte Muster, sind heute versandt worden. Wir nehmen gerne noch weitere Promobestellungen entgegen!

FRANK ZAPPA

A TOKEN OF HIS EXTREME

Eagle Rock Entertainment und die Familie von Frank Zappa freuen sich, die erste offizielle Veröffentlichung von „A Token Of His Extreme“ bekanntgeben zu können. Es handelt sich um jenes Originalprogramm, das Frank Zappa in den frühen Siebzigern fürs Fernsehen hergestellt hat.

Aufgenommen wurde „A Token Of His Extreme“ am 27. August 1974 im KCET in Hollywood, es zeigt Frank Zappa mit fünf unglaublich talentierten Bandmitgliedern und einer ganz außergewöhnlichen Live-Show. Die Besetzung bestand aus:

Frank Zappa – Gitarre, Percussion, Gesang; George Duke – Keyboards, Finger-Cymbals, Tambourine, Gesang; Napoleon Murphy Brock – Saxophon, Gesang; Ruth Underwood – Percussion; Tom Fowler – Bass; Chester Thompson – Schlagzeug.

Das Programm, das von Zappa für „Honker Home Video” eigenhändig geschnitten, sorgfältig seziert und produziert wurde, umfasst folgende Klassiker: The Dog Breath Variations / Uncle Meat, Montana, Earl Of Duke (George Duke), Florentine Pogen, Stink-Foot, Pygmy Twylyte, Room Service, Inca Roads, Oh No, Son Of Orange County, More Trouble Every Day, A Token Of My Extreme.

Die Stereomixe wurden 1974 von Frank Zappa und Kerry McNabb in den „Paramount Studios“ produziert, gemastert hat das Material Bob Ludwig 2009 im „Gateway Mastering Studio“.

Frank Zappa während der Mike Douglas Show im Jahr 1976: „Dieses alles wurde mit meinem eigenen Geld und meiner eigenen Zeit zusammengestellt und dem Fernsehen sowie mehreren Geldgebern angeboten, von der amerikanischen Fernsehindustrie jedoch beharrlich abgelehnt. In Frankreich und der Schweiz dagegen wurde es mit großem Erfolg und zur besten Fernsehzeit gezeigt. Es gehört vermutlich zu den stärksten Videoarbeiten, die je von Menschenhand erschaffen wurden, und es stammt allein von mir. Die Animationen, die man zu sehen bekommt, wurden von einem Typen namens Bruce Bickford kreiert. Ich hoffe, dass er sich die Show anschaut, denn es ist vermutlich das erste Mal, dass viele Amerikaner die Chance bekommen, dies zu sehen.“

Da „Token“ nie kommerziell verwertet wurde, gehört es zu den meistgesuchten Programmen von Frank Zappa.

TRACKS: 1/2)  The Dog Breath Variations / Uncle Meat   3)  Montana   4)  Earl Of Duke (George Duke)   5)  Florentine Pogen   6)  Stink-Foot   7)  Pygmy Twylyte   8)  Room Service   9)  Inca Roads   10/11)  Oh No/ Son Of Orange County   12)  More Trouble Every Day   13) A Token Of My Extreme

Style: Hard Rock

Sometimes you just need a little bit of luck. Because of a funny coincidence the long lost original recordings from BONFIRE’s appearance at the Wacken Open Air have been discovered. This almost historical piece of music has been sonically updated and will now be released officially.

The German rock legend is releasing the album as a teaser before it’s new studio record ‐ planned for the end of the year. Of course, there have been some BONFIRE‐live records in the past, but on „Live In Wacken“ you can really find different versions of the band’s anthems like „SDI“, „Champion“ or „Ready 4 Reaction“ as well as the song „Wake Up“. An anthem the band hasn’t performed live for quite a long time.

Besides that „Live In Wacken“ offers exclusive bonus tracks. Live versions of the songs „Bells Of Freedom“, „Let Me Be Your Water“ and „Black Night“ from the acclaimed rock opera „The Räuber“ (previously unreleased on CD), the exclusive studio track „Thank You“ and an exciting new version of the ballad „Hold Me Now“ from the last BONFIRE‐studio album „Branded“.

„Live In Wacken“ has been mastered by Maor Appelbaum (Yngwie Malmsteen, Rob Halford, Queensryche) and will be released on the 31st of May 2013 on LZ Records/Sony Music.

Track list: 1. Intro/Wake Up (Live), 2. Never Mind (Live), 3. Sweet Obsession (Live), 4. In Zaire (Live), 5. The Stroke (Live), 6. Sword And Stone (Live), 7. SDI (Live), 8. Drum Solo (Live), 9. American Nights (Live), 10. Ready 4 Reaction (Live), 11. Obsessive Prelude (Live), 12. Champion (Live), 13. The Räuber/Bells Of Freedom (Live), 14. Let Me Be Your Water (Live), 15. Black Night (Live), 16. Thank You (Previously Unreleased), 17. Hold Me Now (Extended Mix 2013)
