12. Endless Dream 03:34
13. Dor Mee Än - Finale 03:59

Formed in 1995 by Gregg Anthe and Emmanuelle D., 

Morthem Vlade Art gained a substantial place for itself within the dark movement with its first album 

"Herbo Dou Diable" (1997) a baroque style alternation of neo-classical atmospheres, 

industrial percussions and strong gothic-rock songs with staggered rhythmics.
Without disowning its roots, MVA lets itself be carried along by its many musical, literary and films inspirations.

The result is "Organic But Not Mental" (2000) an album that demonstrates this point very well in the way 

that it turns over a new leaf and gives up the gothic-rock influences.

Just like its title, it is punctuated with electronic atmospheres of symphonic overtones, 

weird samples and distructured industrial songs.
Then, 2001 sees the birth of "Antechamber", made of aerial electronics minimalism carried by raw voices.
In 2002, the group will sign on the American label Luminal Records for the release of a first compilation "Slow Wave Sleep".
"Photography In Things" (2003), MVA's fourth album, is entirely synthetic,

that is led by the absence of acoustic instruments with a few rare exceptions.

Here the band is blending elaborate electronica, eighties sounds and industrial rhythmics.

In 2004 they completed their fifth album entitled "Absente Terebenthine".

Through loads of rhythms and new-wave melodies, this new album presents a mixture of various music genres 

leading to the future with an incredible coherence: distorted industrial and acoustic ambiance 

with electronic songs gathered together in a rock entity.
In 2005 "Autopsy", a compilation of their early works, compiling the first three demos of the group 

("Order Of The Fly",  "Azazel" and "Allegory Of Putrefaction"), was released.

In the same year however, Gregg and Emmanuelle decided to end the band.

To highlight that sad decision they decided to play one last live show,

co-headlining a festival in Luxembourg on November 26th 2005.
"Uncertain Days - Best Of 1997-2005", that was released on March 30th 2007 its a two CD set, 

with many unreleased mixes and highly seeked songs for the first time ever on CD.
Gregg is meanwhile working on his solo projects In Broken English and HNN (Hsilgne Nekorb Ni)

while Emmanuelle is writing her first book.

RA was the side project of Andrei Rusu (aka Vlad Dracul), 

member of the German symphonic black metal band Agathodaimon
and is considered a continuation of his other early project Drusus (1995-1998).
RA was created because of Andrei's love to the Romanian poetry 

and his search for something deeper to mirror these poetic aspects.

As a result the music was created to suit the verses and not vice versa as he was normally did with Agathodaimon.
Some of the lyrics were written by the Romantic poet, novelist and journalist Mihai Eminescu (1850 – 1889),

that he is considered one of the most famous and influential Romanian poets.
The project released two albums with "Geniu Pustiu" being the first one in 1999 and "Sinnocence" in 2001 being the last.
"Geniu Pustiu" also features Dan Byron on vocals (guest vocalist on "Higher Art Of Rebellion" of Agathodaimon).

Impressions Of Winter are a German darkwave/neo-classical band 

that began in 1994 as the project of Joe P. (Joachim Proell).

Because of his high demands on his compositions, 

friends of his began to realize that his music was far too good not to include vocals.

So the initial line-up was completed by Andres Waldura and the group's first female singer, Laikha.
Mozart (of Umbra Et Imago) from the German label Spirit Productions 

offered to produce their first album, "Cantica Lunae - Songs Of The Moon",

which was released in the spring of 1997 and received positive notice.
After this release singer Laikha was replaced by Felicia S., and in the summer of 1998 a second CD 

"Deceptive Springs And Fading Landscapes" was released, followed by "Iuturna" in 2000.
Later in 2001 with their CD release "The RemiXperience" the band takes a slightly different retrospect on their work,

as their greatest hits had been re-mixed for this occasion.
Their last release was issued in 2003 entitled "End Of A Summer".
