The Golem (Hebrew: "embryo", "formless" or "unfinished") is an artificial being, generally humanoid, made of clay, incapable of speech and devoid of free will, fashioned to assist or defend its creator.
In one of the most popular versions of his legend, taken up by some Christian tales, the Golem is born from the clay after four wise men, figuring the four elements, provided his formless material with their attributes.
4 "wise" therefore, free electrons and unclassifiable musicians, flying over the styles and aesthetics with the same natural ease, meet face to face to give life to a raw sound material emanating like a geyser amps lying in the center of the installation . Musicians face to face so, central positioning, the audience is invited to encompass the scene, to circulate around to capture the sensations engendered in 360 °.
Between rough rock, free jazz, electronic and contemporary music, the group does not refrain from digging into the instrumental pop, which may evoke Pink Floyd or This Heat.
Unclassifiable therefore.
Energetic, surely.
A poetic and dense journey in the aesthetics of this century.
