The IndieFunda Begins...


Dear friends as you can guess from the banner above, we are moving to our new beta site http://indiefunda.com/.  We are building it to work as community based platform for all the people who love music. I personally invite you all to sign up there and start writing your own posts about your or others people music. We give to the members absolute author rights from the very beginning and encouraging them to create rich articles full of edgy texts, audio and visuals. We try hard to keep it clean, spamming and shouting are highly prohibited.

Best regards, Nikolas

LunariaN




LunariaN, with the uppercase letters on the “L” & “N”. Formed in late 2006 and getting seriously into music in 2008. A rock-experimental/alternative/electro-rock band hailing from South Jakarta, Indonesia but taking London as our CHART BASE. 7 songs here are taken from a total of 18 they currently have.








"LunariaN likes to go beyond boundaries set by the industry standard while staying true to rock-n-roll music. They often sail the outer rim of sight and sound but never venture past the ear shot of humans nor their basic instinct to enjoy a catchy tune. Influenced by so many artists ranging from Rammstein, Radiohead to Baroque & classical music, you will experience a new age of rock music as they brand their own trademark style. Unusual breakdowns & progressions, vintage & modern sound mixed with abstract-poetic lyrics which speak loud and true... *love*war*conspiracy theory*anti-social*political* All reflections of their society and life experiences. LunariaN is CUTTING EDGE. REAL ROCK MUSIC." - Willy Clayton of Hooker Studio Productions-Pennsylvania, US

"They may not be exactly local, as this talented four-piece hail from Indonesia, but they are definitely something to look out for. If you’re looking for something fresh and new, but with the underlying features that are ever-present in a classic rock band, you’ve found it. LunariaN have the talent, and they’ve certainly got the tracks, with peculiarly genius hits like ‘Generation in a deadline’ and ‘Xenophobia’ keeping rock and roll alive. However ‘Scream Sonata’ is by far the most impressive track I’ve heard. Opening with a complex classical piano stance, one may compare ‘Scream Sonata’ to something attempted by HIM... until the first riff smashes its way into consciousness. With heavy drums and even heavier axe work, ‘Scream Sonata’ is a track that will have you head-banging like there’s no tomorrow, and you might have to check it’s the same band as before! LunariaN is more than diverse, every track is different and they’ll consistently keep you guessing as to where they’re going and what they’re doing.If I had to make a guess... I'd be surprised if LunariaN hadn't made some sort of name for themselves within a year. They have the drive, the determination, and the raw talent to make it, and I really hope they do. The songs are classics through and through, and if I haven't convinced you, check this one out for yourself, by downloading their EP or listening on Reverb as below." - Lily of

Betty Donelly

Based, born and raised in the suburbs of Brussels, Betty Donelly has come a long way before giving a whole new meaning to the indie rock genre, due to the sheer uniqueness of being a soft-androgyne , woman in transition ..
Betty Donelly, who's main influences include THE CURE, DAVID BOWIE, PIXIES and THE BEATLES, has been covering some different styles throughout the eighties, nineties and 2000's, from downright curish old skool, over pixies like music, to what has now become something of a signature genre Betty's dubbed witch rock!
In 1984 a culture shock shook Betty Donelly after hearing THE CURE on the home radio ..
After being in THE FEAR, and THE ELEPHANTS, which led to her evolving into a band leader and multiinstrumentalist, BETTY DONELLY really kicked off her solo act when she wrote MY UNTOUCHABLE FRIEND and THE VOID in 2004.
Now, in 2010, with numerous positive explosive comments and reviews, Betty Donelly is ready to take on the world by surprise with her 90 minute set of absolute wonderful gems of songs, most of which can be found on her debut album ...
Nightmares of love.

Diane Marie Kloba


I was born in Chicago and was a simple poet from an early age. I began playing guitar at about 17 when I bought my first guitar. Music and poetry always being my passion, I joined many original alternative rock bands with a somewhat sophisticated punk attitude and style. Finally in the early 1990s  formed The Silent Workers. We were regulars for about nine years on the Chicago club scene and festival shows, . Our recording Quark received local and national airplay, including live performances on radio stations
In 2004 I released a solo  recording ‘I Kid You Not’ on Striped Shirt Records. Punk attitude and subtle humor, star gazing thoughts and hints of anti-pop, this album was a winner and went on to be voted as the #9 album of the year in The Village Voice Pazz and Jop poll for 2004. In May 2005 I released ‘Messages From The Ionosphere’. Urgent vocals are backed with hip-hop style shouts that serve as a Greek chorus to the songs drama.
In late  ‘For You Stranger’, a dedication to the musicians, artists and inventors in this world.
In a place where pop music is not a goal but an avoidance, I tried to create an urgently approachable and still somewhat avant garde work titled For You, Stranger. While keeping the attitude, verse and vibe up front, bent jazz and twisted surf are placed neatly between alternative and punk rock sonics. The resulting overall style is performance art educated by a punk aesthetic. Reviews of this CD say "there is not a cliché or pop pandering melody or guitar line to be found. I am called a free spirited songwriter who performs wry, ramshackle avant pop. Also that my technique is never lazy or unmusical. Charming and emotional. I love you rock critics for your descriptions of me, I would not know what else to say!!
I am now a voting member of The Recording Academy.
My favorite artists are Fionna Apple, Regina Spector, Isis, Muse, Arcade Fire, Radio Head, Eminem, Linkin Park, Scribe One, Jimmi Henrix, old Bob Dylan,oh and anything new.
My newest creation is titled "I AM AN UNKNOWN ARTIST" It is by far the most polished work I have obtained while still being true to my untamed performance art. Everyone from beat poets to avant pop fans and just plain good music lovers will enjoy this one. It is a personally revealing CD , emotional and warm, fun and grabbing.

The Julian Day

Immersed by their parents in the songs of the great singer/songwriters
of the 70s and the experimentation of 80s bands like New Order, U2 and
Echo and The Bunnymen, The Julian Day fuses the two to offer a wholly
new sound for 2011 that amps it up while stripping it down. With The
Julian Day you'll find good songwriting mixed with just enough
instrumentation to drive the songs along. Working with the idea that
art is best when nothing can be added and nothing can be taken away,
The Julian Day seeks to engage the listener head-on. Spare and
spartanized, these songs have just the right amount of color and
texture while offering brief lessons in the game of life.
