Genre/Influences: Ritual, Experimental.

Format: Digital, CD.

Background/Info: Latvian is based in Tbilisi (Georgia) and has already released a few productions. “Medea Forgives Jason” is a conceptual work inspired by different influences like Ancient-Greece, anthropology, literature, dreams etc. 

Content: From the very first seconds of the work you’ll catch the Ritual approach created by the power and magic of the voice. The vocals have been mixed with different sounds, noises and percussion. The work stands for improvisation and minimalism. 

+ + + : Darja Kazimira for sure brings something original; something most artists don’t dare or don’t feel comfortable with. I like the way the vocals create this bewitching effect which mainly comes through on the debut tracks.

– – – : The more you walk throughout the sound universe of this artist the more it starts to become monotonous. I think Darja Kazimira is abusing the vocals while the music properly speaking remains minimal and in the background.

Conclusion: The debut part of the work sounds promising but the effect of surprise rapidly disappears.

Best songs: “Submissiveness Awakens Hate”, “Morning Of The Severed Head Of A Black Cock”.

Rate: 6.

I have been working for over 30 years with Side-line as the main reviewer. My taste is eclectic, uncoventional and I prefer to look for the pearls, even if the bands are completely unknown, thus staying loyal to the Side-Line philosophy of nurturing new talents.

Since you’re here …

… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.

Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.

If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
