KARABA

Karaba, an instrumental band based in Munich, was formed in 2014 and initially started as a jam band, drawing inspiration from acts like Embryo, Soft Machine, and Kraan. Their self-titled debut album from 2014, which incorporates elements of krautrock, psychedelia, and progressive rock, features early compositions from their musical journey. Their second album, „Schwester Mondreal“ (2018), explores eclectic and Zappa-esque musical territories while maintaining a strong focus on instrumental storytelling. Notably, it includes the over 13-minute improvisation „Ozmoze“ featuring Marja Burchard on vibraphone.Their third studio album, „All High Ways“ (2022), consists of both previously composed and new pieces, thanks to the support of Initiative Musik. It seamlessly blends jazz-rock, krautrock, and progressive rock with Zappa-inspired elements, immersing listeners in Karaba’s unique and humor-infused musical landscapes. The band has performed numerous concerts in Germany and abroad, firmly establishing themselves in the German psychedelic music scene. Notably, they have engaged in musical collaborations with the legendary ex-Can singer, Damo Suzuki. In the meantime, Karaba has completed additional productions. In 2020, they released the live album „Live in Vienna“ on the German Neo-Krautrock music label Adansonia Records. Additionally, they released an EP on the Berlin-based jazz label Kryptox Music, featuring their label debut and the well-known track „Der Inder,“ which served as the opening track for Kryptox’s 2020 „Kraut Jazz Futurism“ compilation. Their latest release, „Orbit Autounfall,“ on the Jazz Montez Records Compilation Vol II in 2023, offers a jazzy exploration through psychedelic sonic realms.


UNBELIEVABLE LAKE (IRL)

Unbelievable Lake was born out of a series of lengthy jam sessions in the attic of a 19th Century manse, with a sound hewn from the forests and mountains of the desolate Sperrins. With an eclectic yet disparate range of influences, they are united by the chemistry and sense of intuition between members Conchobhar Ó Dochartaigh, Pat McCann and Trevor Lennox. Their development through long nights over the last number of years has ultimately led to long-form, aleatoric compositions that are as cerebral as they are visceral in their evocation of urban isolation and rural decay. The trio are inspired by the crushing sounds of Neurosis, Godflesh and Swans, the droning soundscapes of Earth and OM, as well as the exploratory psychedelia of Hawkwind and early Pink Floyd. Cyclical rhythms and weighty, widescreen drones define the band, feeling equal parts towering and scopic: like a leering monolith depicted on an unfurling tapestry. Thematic concerns of anxiety, fear and paranoia, as well as contrasts in rural and urban life and the isolation inherent in each make their music both a meditation on death and a freely-developing fever dream that dwells in various times & spaces.

Debut release ‘Forgive’ was recorded live by Niall Doran at the rural St. Matthias‘ Church in Ballyeglish, Co. Derry. A single 40-minute track, it was released via Sunshine Cult Records on digital & cassette in April 2020, receiving positive reviews from It’s Psychedelic Baby, The Sludgelord, and was featured in the Quietus’ Best Irish Music round-up. The band has played across Ireland, sharing stages with international acts like Gnod, MONO and Can’s Damo Suzuki, and playing festivals like Crypt of the Riff. They have also been played on Irish national radio, Dublin Digital Radio, as well as iconic Minutemen/Stooges bassist Mike Watt’s US-based radio show.
