Under the leadership of Yoshimi P-We, also a founding member of Boredoms, the group have recorded six albums that have subverted expectations and warped perceptions of what constitutes pop and experimental music. Four years of work went into making ‘Gamel’, their bold new album inspired by the Javanese style of gamelan and the first new music from Yoshimi in over five years. Gamelan is an ancient form that has inspired a great many composers and musicians over the past century, from Erik Satie and Claude Debussy to Mouse On Mars and Sun City Girls. The introduction of this traditional form transformed the group into a super tribe, side-stepping the road between the past and the future. Their focus is not to replicate these ancient styles but to incorporate them into their consistently inventive, constantly shifting musical frameworks. They take their love of indigenous music into an entirely new dimension by freely weaving organic and electric tones into a vivid tapestry, employing their keen sense of colour and texture. While previous OOIOO albums have been largely studio creations, ‘Gamel’ is the most accurate portrayal of the band’s overwhelming, forceful live presence so far. Yoshimi leads her minimalistic rhythm ensemble by making quick, impulsive shifts in tone and attack, the group acting as one mind under her expert instruction. While the gamelan elements will be brand new to many listeners, the band offset the bizarre with familiar, at times even nostalgic and childlike, melodies. ‘Gamel’ is euphoric, bursting at the seams with an exhilarating frenzy that is universal yet uniquely their own. OOIOO’s music is reflected in the ear of the beholder, with each listener taking away something different. Yoshimi began her music career in 1986 playing drums in UFO or Die with vocalist Eye, and later joined him in the revolutionary noise-pop group Boredoms. Her explosive drum performances captivated audiences and even inspired Wayne Coyne to name a now-famous Flaming Lips album in her honour. While the band’s tours of the United States are infrequent, they are as The New York Times has stated, “transcendent”. Deluxe double LP edition is pressed on virgin vinyl and packaged in a gatefold jacket with free download card. “A monument to the endless possibilities afforded by an improvisational spirit” – Pitchfork “OOIOO traffic in a crafty kind of post-punk primitivism… the synths, power chords, polyrhythmic drumming and wordless chants building info an irresistible, throbbing whole” – The Wire “She pulled the band together after posing with a few friends holding guitars, and OOIOO brings a similar playful spirit to its music, which ranges from heavy psychedelic romps to spacey atmospheric strolls” – The New Yorker “Playful organic tribalism” – SPIN Artist OOIOO Genre Rock And Pop Label Thrill Jockey Buying Options 2LP Gatefold Sleeve Includes Download Code Format 2LP , Gatefold Sleeve , Includes Download Code Condition New Country United Kingdom Track Listings Don Ah Shizuku Gunung Agung Pebarongan Gamel Ninna Yama Gamel Uma Umo Gamel Kamasu Atatawa Jesse Testa Gamel Udahah Kecupat Aneh Gamel Ulda Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from OOIOO and more from Rock And Pop View Product Quick View OOIOO Nijimusi Alternative Rock / Punk Rock / Emo | Thrill Jockey | 2LP, Coloured Vinyl, Gatefold Sleeve, Includes Download Code Released 17th January 2020 £26.00 -
