Brokenlooppers
Ideas musicales para los que nadan contracorriente
Posted BrokenMix, Sesión on Tuesday, November 6th, 2007.
La serie BrokenMix vuelve a ponerse de gala para recibir la colaboracion de dos artistas internacionales. Juju&Jordash son de los pocos productores que estan ofreciendo un discurso atrevido y transgesor en la actualidad. Con una inspiracion inagotable que bebe de las aguas mas oscuras del jazz nos proponen un viaje hipnotico cargado de percusiones y ritmos complicados. Sus producciones traspasan al 100% ese sentimiento de improvisacion, como si de una jam sesion se tratara.
En este mix nos presentan un paseo por las bases musicales donde se apoya todo su trabajo artístico. Psicoledia que une pasado y presente de una formas mas que coherente y nos hace volar, sin despegar los pies del suelo.
Juju & Jordash Bio
Nearly a decade ago, in the seaport city of Haifa,
Israel, Juju &
Jordash met. They had very different lives going on at
the time, but
found one another through their weekly jams.
Throughout the 1990s, Juju
& Jordash each played in and composed for various
post-rock, jazz,
ethnic and experimental combos by day. Meanwhile by
cover of night,
they were both experimenting with electronic
music-something they would
soon come to do together.
In 2003, in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, Juju & Jordash
officially
joined forces. Together, two years later, they
released The Hush EP on
Reggie Dokes’ Psychostasia (Detroit). In 2006, came
their track The
Ballad of Johnny Velocity with Walter M. Jones on the
Cisco House
Presents Compact Vinyl EP1 (Cisco, Japan). As solo
artists, they have
also released on Terrence Parker’s Real Right
Recordings (Detroit),
Attic (UK) and Fact Records (Jerusalem).
It is hard to describe Juju & Jordash’s music. It is a
unique fusion of
electronic and acoustic, lounge and reggae, techno,
post rock and free
jazz-music from the future gazing deeply into the
past. Musical
influences range from Ryuichi Sakomoto to Thelonius
Monk, from
Kraftwerk to Mr. Fingers.
With many expected releases in the works, Juju &
Jordash continue to
make more music-still the daily joy of Juju who hasn’t
put down his
guitar since age ten, and Jordash who’s been at the
piano since his
fifth birthday. They are currently based in Amsterdam,
where they work
in close association with Fortress Music Studios. For
