Rete Urbana Milanese is a super band based in Milano, driven by some of the most important musicians of the Italian and international scene. An Italian-sung project, based on rock and traditional folk music, RUM is with Sonika since 2014. Thanks to the long and successful experience of its members Eugenio Mori (Ligabue/Pfm/Antonacci) and Marco Mangelli (Pausini/Gaynor/Vecchioni), they present a revolutionary sound coming from the past and moving towards future. They published with Sonika the LP "Capolinea", out with 9 songs and two videos.
Revolution Republic is an unique project for the Italian alternative-heavy scene. The band was born with a secret show, without certain names of faces, that melted for an incredible music experience, among American hard-rock and Italian post-rock. Revolution Republic met in a summer and decided, in partnership with Sonika, to record only one album in just one week. The idea was to go over the common idea of a band that lives in years, to focus on a genuine rock experience, to write music without the intrusion of new techniques or digital machines. Released by Sonika in 2009, "Days Of Revolution" LP sold its 500 copies in 10 days. Sonika never reissued this incredible and rare masterpiece, that, still today, remains a pearl for collectors and old fans.
