Kraut jams by Polish psychedelic rock band Lastryko recorded in spring of 2018.
Maestro Maya – Maestro Maya (2019)
“A journey through the subconscious, rich with soundscapes that hope to reveal new dimensions beyond comprehension of the mind.”
Pilot Voyager – Melted Lights (2019)
“Pilot Voyager is originally a onemanband of Ákos Karancz. Mixing improvisational guitar music with analog modulations, creating space to get lost between thoughts whatever they are noisy or calm.”
Dope Purple – Grateful End (2019)
“Cosmic psychedelic noise rock from Taipei underground. Formed in 2016, Dope Purple channel influences from hard rock, noise and psychedelia with a particular emphasis on sounds from the Japanese underground, into a sweat-drenched, earsplitting, cosmic guitar explosion.”
Krokofant – Q (2019)
“Norwegian trio Krokofant plays energetic and explosive jazz rock that is both free and structured.
Krokofant consists of Tom Hasslan (guitar), Jørgen Mathisen (saxophone) and Axel Skalstad (drums). They are heavily rooted in the 1970 jazz rock sound, with strong references to King Crimson, early Mahavishnu, John Zorn and Peter Brötzmann. An expression that hits both rock audiences and freejazzers. With a drummer sounding like a turbocharged hybrid of Keith Moon and Elvin Jones, Krokofant plays precise and heavy riffs that are redeemed by jarring and strong improvisations. Long, wild saxophone solos are matched by extremely creative, virtuoso guitar playing, without compromising on interaction and groove.”
Curved Entrances – Curved Entrances (2019)
“Debut release from The Myrrors side-project Curved Entrances, a heavy free-improv noise/psych trio featuring guitarists Nik Rayne and Connor Gallaher and drummer Grant Beyschau. Born out of after-hours rehearsals soon after Rayne and Beyschau hooked up with Gallaher’s own Tucson project The Night Collectors, this album features the first two improvisations ever laid down by the formation, and despite the relative age of the recordings is hopefully a teaser for more material to come!”
Estrada Orchestra – Zucker Tanzclub (2019)
“Formed of vinyl diggers, street musicians and self-taught aficionados, Estrada Orchestra started out as a spontaneous jam band in 2013. Their only intention was to enjoy leisure time and keep an open mind; unknowingly they ended up pioneering the return of jazz-funk in Estonia.”
Meteor Vortex – Spiraled Beyond the Reach (2019)
“Debut full-length album of instrumental heavy psych/space rock powertrio from Kouvola, Finland. For the fans of Earthless, Hawkwind, Electric Moon, Hidria Spacefolk etc.”
Anunnaki – Immanentize the Eschaton (2019)
“Imagine a cross between Motorhead’s Lemmy & Philthy Animal and Kraftwerk’s Ralf & Florian, together channeling the kozmik vision of Alice Coltrane through Sunn O)))’s amplifiers, and with influences varying from Klaus Schulze to Acid Mothers Temple, from New Age to Black Metal, Madame Blavatsky to Thich Nhat Hanh, and you’ll start to get the idea of what Anunnaki is all about.”
La Grande Armée – La Grande Armée (2019)
“La Grande Armée is an instrumental band that mixes psychedelic stoner and progressive rock inspired by blues and instrumental rock & roll of the 70’s, born in November 2017 in the commune of San Pedro de la Paz, VIII region, Republic of Chile.”
