The Evpatoria Report was born in Switzerland in January 2002. The band consists of two guitars, a bass, drums, a violin, and a keyboard.

The band plays instrumental rock combining serenity, power, and intensity. Its first release was a two-track EP in 2003, followed by two albums: Golevka in 2005 (reissued in 2008) and Maar in 2008. Notable live performances have included performing with Mono (2004), Calexico (2004) and Red Sparowes (2006). According to their Myspace, The Evpatoria Report are on a long vacation and won’t be playing any gigs for a long time.

Evpatoria is a town in Ukraine, the location of the Ukrainian space agency —some of the band’s songs contain references to space or science, with Taijin Kyofusho featuring radio communications between the space shuttle Columbia and ground control before it exploded in space in February 2003.

The Evpatoria Report collaborated with other musicians, including Reverse Engineering, the Orchestra of Ribaupierre, and the Union Choral Society of Vevey.

Nyctalgia was founded somewhen in winter 2007. Band-founder Silvio is still looking for some other people to join it. The first demo called "Time changed everything" was released on 20th august 2009 and contains five songs of ambient and classical influenced Post-rock. There are no specific plans for the future, but Nyctalgia won't stop now...

"There’s not much to tell about me. I’m an amateur musician and write songs by myself. For me, music is the best way to express what I never was or will be able to tell in words. I never defined for me, what kind of music I want to do, I just look what comes out when I’m doing a new song.

So there could be some very strange or experimental things… When I’ve got enough songs, that I personally really like, I will release a CD or something like that…But I will see… When I find the right people, I will arrange a liveband to perform this music on concerts or wherever…If there somewhen would/will be some possibilities to perform at all… I hope you enjoy it.. The Backgroundpicture was made by “Annadriel”!" ~Silvio
