Day dream, night dream, nightmare, short dream, ideal dream...
These are the topics, the group MELANOIA is about, founded in the summer of 2012 by the drummer and composer Dejan Terzic.
The highly active drummer has been since long part of the top acts of the European jazz scene. During the last years he has presented his highly acclaimed project “Underground”. ENJA RECORDS has also released his last CD “Diaspora”.
The newly founded ensemble deals with musical linkages, integrations, kind of dreams, day dreams, nightmares, multilayered structures and free implementations. MELANOIA focuses mostly on the dream and all its many intense and non tangible aspects. The quartet featuring four strong individualists that are part of Europe’s top-jazz-musicians swings between those structures and implementations. Those four artists create their music and compositions creatively. They all have drawn attention to themselves with diverse projects and recordings. The first CD of that bass-less quartet will be released in March 2013 by ENJA RECORDS.
This ensemble has been nominated for the “BMW-Welt Jazz-Award 2013 – Leading Drums”
