Mars in Scorpio
NEWS   The latest news: New song Broken, more following soon

News: The release of the albums is delayed for a month or two. I'm trying to get them finished by the end of the year (maybe a nice christmas present for your mother?). You can find a Mars in Scorpio remix of an Autocad song on an Autocad Remix disc. There are also plans to release a CD-single (apr. 20 minutes) through a small spanish label. Details soon.
Because i'm working with all new machines the sound of Mars in Scorpio will change and i expect to have new songs with a new sound on here by the end of the month.

More songs following very soon. Look out for "Human Rights for President" featuring a friend of mine on his fender telecaster (there is also a F***ed up disco version with vocoder voice that will likely appear on a cd-single in the near future) and "God was a Trickster (before he died)", a dark ambient noise piece.

I'm in the proces of conceptualizing a limited-edition album that i intent to sell here. My intention is to package it in a numbered handmade cardboard cover. The music will be new songs and extended mixes and special edits of songs that are downloadable. I will burn the cd's myself so i'm still thinking about the look of the disc itself (safe materials etc). It will be a complete independent production and available here in a few months, maybe weeks(don't know exactly when, i'm re-mixing, re-ordering and re-mastering as i write and then there is the package that needs some attention). There will be more albums in the form limited edition in the future. You can get more information about the albums by joining the mailing list. I'm also contemplating a compilation disc of the two handmade discs for people that don't like homemade discs and don't care about a cool package. When it will be made, it will be sold through unsignedartists.com (i think). Details will follow. the homemade cd's will be $10 or less for each disc, the unsigned artists disc will be $12,50.

play lo-fi play hi-fi  HardCore Shamanism - naked in dreamtime 2001 mix
Sound, Music, The World and me. HardCore Shamanism. Experiments with Distorted Breakbeats, noise and sound, i like to call it Drum & Noise and Chaos Dance. Even some real instruments like borrowed guitars. I also do Deep HardCore Experimental Ambient, not for the innocent.

YES IT'S TRUE! Mars in Scorpio has merchandise.
If you want to be a good CONSUMER and go to CAPITALIST HEAVEN, you can buy stuff. Aron 2.4 doesn't get a cent, prices are what cafepress wants to recieve for the stuff, absolutely no profit for Mars in Scorpio. So visit ARONSCAPITALISTHELLSHOP and get yourself a cool Beermug.

If you would like to recieve notice of New Song Downloads and Upcomming Albums, you can join my mailing list on this page. There will be no bullshit or advertisement in the mailings. It will only be sent out if i have something usefull to say. So it's no two-weekly newsletter or something like that. I work obsessive at my music station so maybe sometimes you will get a mail three times in a week, other times it can be weeks, before i send something out.
Why this name?
aron 2.4 really had mars in scorpio when he was born. Otherwise he's an innocent virgin with a big shadow.
Do you play live?
No, not at the time, this project is too new but it can be done in the future. It would be totally different, Combining sound with vision, inviting some friends to help me out. It would be more about improvising than playing the songs. More of an experience than a concert.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It's a way to escape the money-machine. And it makes your world bigger.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Yes, if i would get to keep my independance. Free will is a fact, not an option or something you can sell.
Band History:
Mars in Scorpio is aron 2.4, he does everything. Creative through music and art for about fifteen years. A virgin with mars in scorpio. Obsessive, sociopathic and vegetarian. Loves children, animals and the night.
