2010 Album Releases You Want to Listen to

A rich and provocative year, 2010 meant the release of many new albums from the relevant names from the gothic, industrial and electro scenes, but also the discovery of new artists, that come, layer upon layer of sound,  to further enlarge the musical spectrum, reconsider the influences, and at the same time remain under the non-mainstream cone of light.

[mudslide:picasa,0,VIVAMUSICROMANIA,5480295695151296497,21,320,center]

Viva Music took the second step in mak­ing the dark gothic.industrial.synth music known to the Roman­ian audi­ence on Sun­day, December 5, 2010. Our dear friend and sup­porter, Lau­ren­tiu Rusen (thank you, Laur!) and Vivi were guests of the extremely pop­u­lar A la chart de week-end, with Bog­dan Crutescu show on Radio Bucuresti (98.3 FM) for the second time.

We talked about electro.dark.gothic.industrial music, the elec­tro scene, the gigs Viva Music is organizing in the first months of 2011 (the third Darkwave.ro Fest, NIN live tribute and Combichrist). We are grate­ful to Bog­dan Crutescu for his invi­ta­tion, and we appre­ci­ate his support. It looks like he is turning into an electrohead himself!

Stay tuned on Sunday, December 26, between 7:30–8:00 pm and 8:30–9:00 pm cause we are playing ELECTRO.INDUSTRIAL.SYNTH MUSIC on Bucuresti FM again! Please write to us with sug­ges­tions for the playlist at viviana@vivamusic.ro. Don’t forget that you can watch the show live on http://www.bucurestifm.ro/.

Viva Music at Wave Gotik Treffen 2009

WGT 2009 – GENERAL INFORMATION

WAVE GOTIK TREFFEN (18th edition), the largest alternative festival in the world, took place between May 29 and June 01, 2009 in Leipzig, Germany. Check out the WGT Website for full details.

For many years the Treffen was celebrated as the largest gathering of the “dark family” in the world. All over the city more than 190 bands, projects and single artists performed on about 20 stages. The events took place for instance in the vaults of the Moritzbastei, in the splendid neoantique cupola hall of the Volkspalast, in the crypt of the Völkerschlachtdenkmal, a famous monument of the battle of 1813, as well as in large concert halls. The people from Leipzig are familiar with the Treffen after 17 years – the Gothic guests are welcome.
