Amsterdam-based collective Mèraque presents Paradiso, a hypnotic blend of Balkan and Middle Eastern folk with psychedelic club music. Traditional instruments such as oud, clarinet, guitar, and darbuka are interwoven with experimental downtempo electronics and subtle drum & bass influences. Rooted in Balkan and Roma traditions, the band translates centuries-old melodies into a contemporary electronic landscape.
We will be launching the album with an in-store critical listening session and talk with the band on Sunday 14th June from 15:00. Please come join for a drink, a coffee, some wonderful music and more!
