Unknown Mortal Orchestra Band

Mysterious and almost incomprehensible, in a network of astonishing psychedelic lo-fi sounds, an alternative band from Portland California quickly developed into a kind of musical chameleon, repeatedly revealing completely undiscovered vastness of soundscapes to its listeners. Unknown Mortal Orchestra stands for inspiration, changeability and joy of experimentation like no other band in today's alternative and indie music scene and has taken the exploration of indie music further than many others. Since the early 2010s, Ruban Nielson, together with Jake Portrait and Riley Geare, somewhere between Tame Impala, MGMT and Melody's Echo Chamber, have been forging musical art that immediately enchanted the alternative scene. With a flair for unusual harmonies and a penchant for experimenting with sounds, the band became a force that pushed the boundaries of what was known as music and amazed critics and fans of the genre worldwide. Their 2011 self-titled debut album Unknown Mortal Orchestra is a prime example of an unconventional approach to music. With songs like "Ffunny Ffrends", "So Good At Being In Trouble" or "Multi-Love" they always surprised with unexpected musical twists. In fact, with almost every new release within their discography, the band demonstrated their ability to constantly reinvent themselves to invent, while at the same time maintaining her distinctive style. This constant striving ultimately made her a captivating force within the musical landscape. There is no clear catchiness to be found in Unknown Mortal Orchestra. Rather, it is a constant invitation to delve into the infinite depths of musical experimentation It is this incessant curiosity, the desire to discover and create of the individual musicians themselves, which makes Unknown Mortal Orchestra probably already a timeless band of the modern age.
