Why this name?

The name came to alexrm1x’s mind driving from Barcelona to Madrid. The name “RETURN without GOSUB” has its origin in a debug message of a Computer Programming language (Basic) of one of the first home computers called Sinclair ZX Spectrum.

Do you play live?

After just releasing our first CD, we are playing live Gigs in 2005 and 2006.

How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?

The Internet IS ALREADY changing the music industry. It gives the opportunity to share music and be known as a musician in all the world. Unsigned Bands can control their destiny, compose when ideas are in our mind and play live when we have the energy.

Would you still sign a record contract with a major label?

We are more centered in finding new distribusion channels and increase our fan base than signing with one of the mayor labels.
