Migala was a rock-based experimental band hailing from Madrid, Spain. The band was known for its complex, varied, and often cathartic musical arrangements, heavily influenced by pop, post-rock, folk, and traditional Spanish music.

El Hijo has released 2 eps to date and will be recording an album at the beginning of next year. Fantasy Bar have finished recording their self produced first album, and num9's record will be out in November (on Acuarela Discos). Nacho Vegas, ex-guitarist Manta Ray, was a member of Migala from Arde up til the Increible Aventura, while at the same time releasing albums under his own name and with his band, Las Esferas Invisibles. Some of the band members also work in independent Spanish cinema.
