Compuesto De Hierro

Esplendor Geometrico, the influential industrial pioneers of the pulsating, hypnotic and mechanical rhythms, present the extended version of their album Compuesto De Hierro to celebrate the 20th anniversary of its release. Recorded in Beijing in 2002 and out of print for over 15 years, Compuesto de Hierro was originally released only on CD and now for the first time on double vinyl including on side D four new and unreleased tracks recorded in 2022, inspired by the music on the album. Now remastered for vinyl, the sleeve design is based on the original cover.

Compuesto De Hierro is the most perfect example of the industrial-tribal sound of Esplendor Geométrico, developed over more than two decades, reminding us at times of their most "ethnic" album "Mekano-Turbo". The hypnotic and elaborate rhythms are masterfully combined with treated vocals, electronic analogue sounds, and sonorities from the Far East, especially from China.

Compuesto De Hierro represents a unique viewpoint in the fusion of traditional or ethnic music with classical industrial music.
