Makajodama

Makajodama Hail From Sweden And Consist Of Members Already Known Within The Swedish Prog Scene Mathias Danielsson Guitarist For Fellow Proggers Gösta Berlings Saga And Mattias Ankarbrauth Who Drummed With The Carpet Knights. Both Mathias And Mattias Came Together To Start A Band That Created Music That Could Not Be Contained By A Particular Genre. With This Goal In Mind Mathias Began To Write Music. During This Process His Aspirations Would Be Realized Even Further When One Day It Occurred To Him That Someone Living In A Nearby Apartment Was Playing The Violin. It Took A Month To Locate This Mysterious Violin Player -- Johan Klint -- But When He Was Found He Convinced Johan To Join The Band. It Was Not Long Before Johan Recommended Karin Larsdotter A Cellist Who Was Interested In Improvisation. This Cemented A Steady Line-Up For The Band And Their Creative Ambitions Are Now Being Realized. After Hearing Their First Release The Self-Titled "Makajodama" These Ambitions Have Been Realized. Tracks Such As 'Autumn Suite' Explore All Of The Modern Classical Trappings That Might Be Heard In Univers Zero Or A Shostakovich Piece 'The Ayurvedic Soap' Would Fit Perfectly On King Crimson's "Larks' Tongues In Aspic'. Makajodama Is A Must Have For Fans Of Dark Improvisational And Chamber-Esque Prog. read less
