Nic Koray & Band - Traveller (VS-i-0007)
Album CD / release: April 23, 2010
"Every single moment, every tiny bit of life is part of a journey--like it or not--this is, what fascinates me so much. Wherever you go, wherever you hide you ARE part of THE journey, moving forward through space and time, through the countryside, along the edges of your mind, into the corners of your heart, from face to face, from place to place, from highway to hiding places, whatever...
I could go on like this for ages. At any given moment -each and everyone of us is a TRAVELLER.
That drives me mad, makes me happy and drives me mad again!"

Monocular - Somewhere On The Line (VS-i-0003)
Album CD / release: April 03-2009
"Best debut album in the widened Trip-Hop-Genre since Goldfrapps legendary Felt Mountain" (Zillo 3/09)
Where bands like Lamb or Frou Frou left a gap in the late 90s and early 21st century, Monocular redefined the sound and set new standards in developing their complex music by connecting charismatic vocals with entrancing soundscapes. 14 songs - impressively skilled, deep and full of variety - will be released via VierSieben Records in April 2009. Monocular are definitely one of the most talented German acts of international quality.

Incontrol - Tired Of Armageddon Forecasts (VS-i-0002)
EP / online release: June 2008
Here is a Present for You!
In Spring 2008 Incontrol entered the Cyclops Killer Studios in Dortmund to record three tracks for a new EP. The three tracks are very conceptional. The lyrics deal with Tom Forensicos disfavor for conspiracy theories.
Facing the band's 5th anniversary the guys decided to celebrate with their fans and to put the EP online for free download. The tracks are still available in excellent sound quality on Incontrol's homepage.
Incontrol - On High In Blue Tomorrows (VS-i-0001)
Album CD / release: December 2007
The Beginning of VierSieben
“On High In Blue Tomorrows” is an album that's got something to offer. It rocks in a darker and more aggressive way than its precursor and adds a new facet to the Wall of Sound that is Incontrol. Melodies meet walls of guitars, soft delay sounds hit on hard drums, intricate arrangements get together with straight rock, airy meets earthy.
Not just because of this, the new record sounds quite a bit more noisy, with walls of guitars thicker, darker and heavier than before. Released in December 07, this album has been our very first.
