Silvania

Silvania is an extinct project that was born by the hands of the peruvian duo Mario and Coco in the very early '90, both living at Spain since 1988. During all its existence, they were dedicated to blend the celestial vibe of Dream Pop with the finest Electronic and Ambient touches, giving their songs an ethereal, mesmerizing beauty which can bring Cocteau Twins, Dif Juz, Seefeel, Mellonta Tauta and A. R. Kane right up to our minds when listening to it. Yeah, they could fit very easily in the 4AD catalogue back then, but unfortunately they didn't reach any reasonable stage of recognizement and sucess during its existence, only a very reduced cult following during the 2000's era and so forth.

Since 2000, both members ended Silvania activies and started a New Wave/Electropop project called Ciëlo which was sadly haulted at 2008 due to the murder of Coco at Madrid. He seemed to be very dear to the local scene and everyone who knew him due to his total dedication to the sublime art of crafting music by the own sake of the art. However, his legacy is around there, deserveful of being admired, tasted and enjoyed at the same stellar level of Mario & Coco's creativity. All of Silvania's full-lenghts, besides the remix album Delay Tambor (1996) and the Solineide 1991-1993 compilation, released at 2003, can be found right below. Finally, as I always say, enjoy it!

enjoy!

Oh! It's the first link above. The record cover's the wrong one, though. That belongs to Campos de Espirales...

Thanks a lot for sharing!

About the seekers and lovers:

Hello! We are Carlos and Paloma, two brazilian seekers. Our wish with this bloggy is to spread anything related to Shoegaze, Dream Pop, Noise Pop, Post-punk, Alternative Rock, Post-Rock, Psychedelic, Drone, Krautrock, Experimental and so on and on and on. We are aware that the artists need to eat, get a place to live and stuff, so we strongly encourage you to always support them such as buying their albuns, singles, merchandising, and watching their gigs when you can. Our purpose is to spread good music only, and if for any reason an artist does not put up with it, just let us know and send us a polite e-mail and we fix that. Ah, and leave us feedbacks, comments, suggestions, fluffy gifs (ok, these ones are not wanted) and etc whenever you wish, huh? If you have a band and wish to have a space here, feel free to contact us and then we can post your myspace, facebook, bandcamp profile, videos, as you wish too!

Cheers from Paloma and Carlos! ;)
