AARDVARKS

GERMANY

The colombian born man Hernan Martinez plays the guitar in AARDVARKS
and CENTAUROS-A, two strong metal bands.
I achieved to do this "face to face interview" with him in Bogota City

Hi Hernán...

Thank you for invite me to do this interview and also for your
interest to know about the bands.

Let me know the time being in AARDVARKS and CENTAUROS-A

 I have 2 and half year in AARDVARKS, in CENTAUROS-A 2 years; AARDVARKS
got 11 years and they have a particular sound, so my compositions keep
that sound. In CENTAUROS-A is diferent, I entered when they got 1 year
and they were seeking a kind of music, so I can explore a lot.

What can you tell me about the promotion of "Conglomerate" album in Colombia?

 We want to enter in the underground of south america and we started in Colombia.
It's a great work and I know that here in Colombia are persons that like it.
We wish to play here in a future.

How do you describe the Germany scene?

 It's strong, there are persons for everything, they support,
if there is a concert of a Gotic Band and then a Death Metal Band,
the people listen. also the persons buy the CDs and the bands survive.

Do you play in another bands outside AARDVARKS and CENTAUROS-A?

 I play in SYRE, it's a neo-thrash metal band from Bonn, we want to record
a Cd and bring it to Colombia. Also I am in a project of folk and new age
and I'm in MISTICIA, a thrash metal band with another colombian man
(Diego Rodríguez).

Do you want to record with CENTAUROS-A too?

 We recorded 8 songs, we wish to press in Colombia the promotional of 4 songs
and it's a proposal of the dutch label HAMMER HEAD, they want to release the CD

Thank you for the time meeting me for this interview...

Thanks Alex.
Support the metal!!
