We’re delighted to announce the signing of powerful, original and hypnotic French/Chilean band Nova Materia. Their first album is under production, and will be released internationally just after the summer.

Nova Materia is a duet consisting of Caroline Chaspoul from France and Eduardo Henriquez from Chile. On the border between rock and electronica, their music incorporates eerie sounds generated by raw and mineral materials (metal, rocks etc) to create tracks that are in turn hyper-rhythmic and dreamy. The band’s sound is already making headway in festivals & clubs as well as in the visual arts & performance communities.

Nova Materia was born three years ago from the ashes of Panico, the Chilean postpunk group with which Caroline and Eduardo toured around the globe and released several albums. After two EPs produced a.o. in collaboration with French producer Chloé and her Kill The DJ label, Nova Materia now joins the likes of Acid Arab, Konono N°1, Juana Molina, Yasmine Hamdan and Matias Aguayo on the Crammed Discs roster.
