A:V:K

A:V:K was a originally a trio consisting of Eth Eonel and two of his music production course students, the cousins André Mingeødegård and Vebjørn Mingeødegård. The two boys attended Eth Eonel's music production course in the summer of 2013. Their improvised efforts were recorded and then released as Dub-Impro isthe New Vanguard in 2016.

In working out the legal issues surrounding the 2016 release, Eth Eonel asked the boys to join him for another album, tentatively called A:V:K - Another Vanguard King. Other issues made it so this line-up wouldn't be working together.

Eth Eonel had a few ideas on how to continue the concept either way, and enlisted the growing talents of his own daughter Viktoria (aka Vikki Oh) as a beatmaker and vocalist. Work on a new album started in January 2020.
