11) VEGA were one of several Andalusian and Spanish bands who flourished in the mid- to late seventies by making music that blended flamenco, folk and jazz at times with English progressive tendencies, often resulting in a colorful and rich fusion sound. Acts like TRIANA, CAI, MEZQUITA and AZAHAR would establish themselves as the preeminent players on these scenes, along with the more contemporary counterparts like LOS CANARIOS and ALAMEDA.
12) VEGA was a German hip-hop duo that released the single Ich chille in 1999.
In this vein VEGA combined Andalusian instrumentation (and sometimes traditional arrangements) with a less well-defined progressive bent, emphasizing instead a heavy flamenco influence and the showcased guitar work of band leader Tómas Vega. Vega had been a member of the earlier Spanish band LOS GRIMMS, and would also, along with bandmate Jorge Pardo, lend his name to a couple DOLORES (Pedro Ruy Blas) records in the same timeframe.
The group released three albums in three years, each accompanied by one single. The first two are heavily imbued with flamenco-driven fusion compositions, while the final release 'Sol de Oscuridad' seemed to be more intended as an attempt at commercial success with vocals and repetitive, less original arrangements. The band was already in its death throes by the time the third album released.
VEGA were a minor player in an ample line of Spanish and Andalusian prog bands of the seventies and eighties. While their contributions don't generally rank among the greatest acts of that segment, they are worthy of recognition and inclusion in these ProgAcrhives.

13) VEGA is a three-piece heavy stoner rock band hailing from the 'VEGA' star. They traveled the interstellar star-ways of the multiverse in their dark matter-fueled VEGA-van, intent on spreading their riff to passing planets. Lights years into their journey they happened upon a planet that caught their attention: this planet was unlike any of the other desolate and in some cases, down right primitive planets they had visited since they started their galactic tour. This planet was Earth and they found it akin to their homeland; such as it was cut from the same great cosmic cake as VEGA. It had majestic mountains, vast oceans, extreme deserts, beautiful flowered plains, and industrialized modern cities. All Earth's inhabitants, from intelligent lifeforms to basic single-celled organisms, were identical to VEGA-ns and lived indistinguishable lifestyles and had similar habits to the people of their home-star. Earth even had music: just like VEGA. VEGA decided to stay on this strangely familiar, yet completely foreign sister-planet and lay down their sweet-star riffs as ambassadors to their beloved VEGA.

Vincent ist da
Vega Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Was willst du tun? In meiner
Gegend trägt das jeder Mann
Bin nicht allein
Dieser Beat klingt wie 100 Chabos
Du kannst Bosc fragen, ich bin Ultrakaos
Denn ich hab' Glatzen vor ihr Kinn gehauen
Natz durch schwarzes Zinn geraucht
Der Erfolgskurs zeigt Richtung Himmel
Ich bin immer noch der
Junge mit der Kreissägenstimme
Was für Gangster und gefährlich?
Seh‘ durchs Fenster in die Ferne
Und ich diss nicht, denn wenn ich’s tu
Beende ich Karrieren
Und Rapper suchen nach Strick und Stuhl
Ficken schwul mit der Pop-Musik
Doch lernen‘s nich‘, ehrlich
Ihr Punks habt nicht das Herz wie ich
Nenn mich Amr Diab, so wie Erc es war
Dieses Album baut nicht auf
Es zerstört die Charts
Und ich will
Dass du sie suchst in deiner Stadt
Den besten Rapper, den du kennst
Groupie Chain und Cops
Alle Säufer, alle Kinder und Chabs
Geh' raus und sag' ihnen: "Vincent ist
Da und er macht alles kaputt"
Und ich will
Dass du sie suchst in deiner Stadt
Den besten Rapper, den du kennst
Groupie Chain und Cops
Alle Säufer, alle Kinder und Chabs
Geh' raus und sag' ihnen: "Vincent ist
Da und er macht alles kaputt"
The lyrics to Vega's song "Vincent ist da" depict a self-assured and empowered attitude. The opening lines, "Schwarzes Leder an, ein Leben lang" (Black leather on, a lifetime), suggest an image of someone who identifies with a particular subculture or style and has embraced it as part of their identity. The lyrics go on to express a sense of pride in this identity, with the lines "Bin nicht allein" (I am not alone) and "Dieser Beat klingt wie 100 Chabos" (This beat sounds like 100 Chabos). Chabo is a German slang term for a tough guy or a gangster, so this line implies that the music Vega is creating resonates with others who share a similar background or attitude.
Vega continues to assert his confidence and uniqueness in the lyrics. He mentions having shaved heads (Glatzen vor ihr Kinn gehauen) and smoking black (schwarzes Zinn), which could be interpreted as symbols of rebellion and nonconformity. The reference to Wappen mit dem Lindenbaum (crest with the lime tree) could be a nod to Vega's Hessian heritage, as the lime tree is a common symbol of the state. The lyrics also touch on the theme of success, with the line "Der Erfolgskurs zeigt Richtung Himmel" (The path to success points towards the sky). Vega asserts his continued relevance and distinct voice in the rap scene, being the "Junge mit der Kreissägenstimme" (the boy with the circular saw voice).
The second verse takes on a more confrontational tone. Vega suggests that he could diss other rappers and end their careers, but he chooses not to, indicating his confidence and ability to rise above petty feuds. He critiques other rappers who follow trends and lack authenticity, describing them as "Ficken schwul mit der Pop-Musik" (Fucking gay with pop music). Vega, however, asserts that he has the heart and honesty that these other artists lack. The line "Nenn mich Amr Diab, so wie Erc es war" refers to the Egyptian singer Amr Diab and suggests that Vega sees himself as a respected figure in the music industry.
Overall, "Vincent ist da" is a song about Vega's self-assurance and pride in his unique identity within the rap scene. He presents himself as a talented and confident artist who is unafraid to challenge the norms and expectations of the industry.
