Ixion

1)Ixion is an atmospheric funeral doom band : Ixion was born in 2004 when Julien Prat started to work on his own compositions. During three years, he writes several tracks from a dark and atmospheric music to a more classical doom metal. Six tracks are finally selected for the first demo, which combines the doom and atmospheric sides, as well as some electronic and symphonic elements.
From that point, Ixion's music can be linked with some funeral doom and gothic/doom metal bands, with a particular work on keyboards and ambient soundscapes.

Douglas

This tag relates to three artists, the Welsh pop-punk band, a Chilean pop singer of the same name, and a Pittsburgh folk rock/rock n' roll band. 1.- Douglas had a knack for writing songs with hooks that could land whales whilst retaining a hardcore sentiment coupled with energy and emotion. Live performances were a frenetic mass of raw energy, chaos and positive belief in what they did, leading to slots on the Warped Tour and supporting Lostprophets on their 2003 UK tour. After their most successful headline tour to date, changing personal priorities lead to Douglas splitting up.

Benoit & Sergio

Hailing from Washington DC, Benoit & Sergio are an electronic-pop duo whose sound owes as much to Galaxie 500 or The Jesus & Mary Chain as to any house or techno pioneers. Their debut EP, "What I've Lost," was released in November of 2009 on Bruno Pronsato's record label, thesongsays. Boldly unfashionable, What I've Lost is a rich and charismatic record that effortlessly brings a pop sensibility to a techno framework.
