      Characteristic name in the avant-garde Spanish music, with one of the most innovatives and extensive trajectories in the electronic soundscape.

    El sueño de Hyparco is embebed in the dark electronic aesthetic mouvement, so called isolationism. Antonio Dyaz, using the nickname Klaus Böhlmann, was the creator of the band, in 1988, working since then with musiciens like D'Onork Eimert, Manuel García, Julián Aragoneses, Doctor Héctor, Dieter Klanze, Fátima Miranda, Suso Saiz or Luis Delgado. One decade later, Hyparco will sleep for ever...
   El sueño de Hyparco has made performances in places like Madrid (Centro Reina Sofía, Círculo de Bellas Artes, Teatro Pradillo, SGAE, Espacio "P"), Barcelona (SONAR '94), Vigo (Galería Zen& Cia), Santander (Fundación Caja Cantabria), Sevilla (Universidad Politécnica)... In 1993 performs in New York, in a special night focused on instrumental music, during the New Music Seminar.
