Background:
CDC is a contemporary music group offering a combination of unconventional sounds using such instruments as the Chapman stick, wind midi, electro-acoustic drums and 12-string guitar together with unique instruments such as the Charrofono, the Jarana Prisma, the Kitai and the Tricordio, created in metal by the group’s drummer. The result is a unique, experimental, avant garde, local and, at the same time, universal sound; a balance between the acoustic and the electronic. With a career spanning 12 years, the group has performed at various festivals and on national and international stages.

Important Productions:
Cabezas de Cera, …Un segundo, MetalMúsica/Aleaciones aleatorias and Fractal sónico 95-05, a live dvd (2005).

Hecho en México, an album recorded live at different venues and in different cities throughout Mexico.
