Neokarma Jooklo Trio! I love these guys! I love the fact that every time they do a release they change the name of the band, it's really handy when you're trying to browse the website! NOT, LOL. I do actually like them though, their psychedelic jazzkrautdrumrock frying my mind on their last super expensive Qbico LP.. I really wanted that but, alas, I am not a rich man and I want for basic provisions, never mind Italian experimentation. I think I'm going to take home this handsomely packaged white vinyl (with download code!!!) on Conspiracy though, it makes me feel as if I'm floating down the Amazon on a makeshift raft, desperately fleeing the giant camel-riding badgers racing along the banks, deep in the Peruvian jungle. I'd quite like to have the option of feeling that way in my living room and I'm sure you would too.
Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.
What their label says...
And the cosmos has hatched a new egg of progression... The Neokarma
Jooklo Trio are a wildflower in the Italian music scene using cosmic
improvisation and meditation techniques that gently hoover into musical
religion. With uptempo tribal percussion and trance-inducing slightly
Middle Eastern and Asian Gamelan influeces, they summon the greater
ancient spirits of nature. Ethereal drones are woven to a magical
flying carpet, then drenched in reverb and delay to dig deep in an
emotional visionary barrel.
Soothing chimes and bells that floatingly enter your space are
blurred by it's stoned execution. Neokarma are constantly looking for
the perfect balance, patiently waiting and letting the instrumental
flow dictate the direction. All in a spacial, almost minimalist
fashion, where chords and shifts are breathing in all their shivering
glory.
And with every improvised song, a new chapter unfolds and
brings a glimpse of a better tomorrow. A hopeful soundtrack delivered
in bleak , desolate times. A dance around the campfire where cosmic
beliefs walk hand in hand with their earthly presence. A sincere ethnic
take on calming the masses to further absorb a world of visions that
never abandon post.
Spring is almost here... i can smell it. A deep trip in the
astral and infinite ways of human spirit and mind. Italy's new power
rangers. Highly recommended for fans of Yahowa 13, Makoto Kawabata,
Master Musicians Of Bukkake, Guru Guru and Avarus.
