Baja
is a loose collective founded by German composer, musician and sound artist,
Daniel Vujanic
. It is also a three piece live band. The debut CD
Maps/Systemalheur
, consists of the 40-minute long "Maps": oscillating between progfolk-postrock, jazz, minimal music and haunting electroacoustics, and the compact, percussive and theme-based "Systemalheur": turning analog and digital sounds into cut-up pop and almost symmetrical, edgy rhythms for 30 minutes. Baja's music has been compared to quite a lot of very diverse artists and genres: composers and musicians like
Brian Eno
,
Terry Riley
and
John Fahey
have been mentioned, also experimental rock acts like
This Heat
,
Harmonia
,
Sonic Youth
and
Tortoise
. It's not easy to pin down the vivid instrumentalism. Even pop/indie electronica acts like
Psapp
and
The Books
have found their way into comparisons while the jazz rock enthusiasts draw charming analogies to '70s fusion works like
Larks' Tongues In Aspic
or
Bitches Brew
.
