  • Ghost in the Museum

    Ghost In The Museum was  released January 26, 2016.

    POST-PUNK, AVANT-POP, UNTAMED-ELECTRO SONG POEMS.

    This album is a multi layered rich collection of songs using guitars, synthesizer and drums as the main back drop for poems with hidden dual meanings amidst haunting sonic atmosphere.

    The album focuses on the spirit seemingly left behind in an artist’s chosen medium, be it painting, sculpting or music. The musical elements extend down to the center of the earth while vocals sweep you way back up to the North pole. Layers of bass are enhanced with melody creating dimension and space with large picturesque landscapes of sound. Instruments come in and out giving depth and variety to these short song/poems.

  • Oliver Arditi reviews Dandelion Exclusives

    From Oliver Arditi’s review of Dandelion Exclusives:

    This is a work of pronounced creative maturity, turning our attention to Kloba’s quizzical observations with a deft, un-manipulative touch, and employing the simple resources of guitar pop with singular power.
