José Román was born in Carolina, Puerto Rico some time in the late 60s or early 70s. As a young journalism student at the University of Puerto Rico, he was a pioneer of the island’s underground punk-rock scene.  Armed with his trusty drum machine and adopting the nom de plume Xocé Román, he founded Descojón Urbano, heavily influenced by the industrial sounds of Ministry and Wax Trax records. He was also a founding member of Burning Face, Puerto Rico’s first goth band. As the 90s progressed, he was also involved in the burgeoning electronic music scene, founding the Antártica project. He now resides in Southern California, where he continues to produce music under the name O.P.A.L. 

We are not this person.

This band is not José Román. 

José Román is not a member of Xocé Román.

But he approves this message.

Vök is a dream-pop/indie-electro band from Iceland.
Vök was formed in January 2013 to enter an annual band contest in Iceland, 'Músíktilraunir' (Music Trials).The problem? They didn't actually have any songs. Yet within a few weeks they were at the contest performing their brand new tracks. In a twist of fate (and talent) won the competition.

Vök’s sound mixes wistful electronics and melodic vocals, distant saxophones and reverberating guitars. Think The xx’s hypnotism, The Knife’s sexual tension and Poliça’s playful overdubbing.
