Hipnótica have just released “NEW COMMUNITIES FOR BETTER DAYS” their 4th album. One of its tracks is already being licensed to Japanese label KSR (Koop, CSS) and it will be part of a compilation that will be released in June 2007.

The album was produced by Wolfgang Schloegl from the Viennese Sofa Surfers, recorded in Lisbon, mixed in Vienna and it was mastered at New York by Jim Brick (OutKast, Mosdef, Jullee Cruise, Peter Murphy) at Absolute Audio Studios.

This new album is for sure the most ambitious and its a personalized crossover of rock new directions, electronic, hip hop and jazz. TO create these musical pieces the band had valious contributions from special guests that shared their vision and inspirations with the band. Riz Maslen from Neotropic, Nanar Vorperian singer from Break Reform, the Japanese multi-instrumentist Hidekazu Wakabayashi, Francisco Rebelo bassist from Cool Hipnoise and the jazz musician Abdul Moimême form the large “community” that made this album create its final shape.
