“Unearthed from the archives of Shem to commemorate our 7th year in existence, these recordings mark the first beginnings of a continuous journey into the depths of musical experimentation, rhythmic meditation and cosmic trances. Performed and recorded on June 3rd 2017.”
Shem – III (2023)
“Shem is a collective of musicians aiming to perform improvisational sound pieces influenced by a wide range of eras and strains of psychedelic and progressive music. Through combining elements of ambient, drone, psych and space rock into epic, reverb drenched jams, Shem try to reach out beyond the established boundaries of musical conventions to create their own realm of sonic experimentation. Constantly moving and shape-shifting within this realm, their third album sees the German collective explore further the meditative and ritualistic aspects of ambient music, the sonic outbursts of space rock and the atavistic rhythms of Krautrock.”
