Info zu Grand Line

The music on Grand Line consists of two separate components: musical compositions and form compositions, and explores form as a malleable object in shaping musical content. Founded on a fixed music material it is an approach which mixes arbitrariness with intention, and at the same time relying heavily on the creativity of the players involved. The sounding result might seem entropic, and at times leave both listeners and performers puzzled and perplexed, but the goal with the recording has not been to restate what has already been defined or accepted, but to challenge recognizable patterns and contribute to the expansion and evolution of our musical consciousness and the multitude of possibilities in which musical events can order themselves.

Nakama
is Japanese and can be translated as «comrade», or simply a community of people where no one is above the other. Nakama is an expansive band, and as of 2015 it consists of four genuine artists who give life to a material which can be characterized as European jazz anno 2000, American contemporary music anno 1960, Japanese traditional music and a touch of romantic music. Nakama is emptiness and form, form and emptiness. It is what you get when you mix Japanese anime, minimalism, chili and zen-buddhism. Nakama is an attempt to make the world a better place through the exploration of sound and silence.
