new music - ajimal
This man is basically my new crush. Ajimal is the 'dynamic-in-ear-collaborative-experiment' of Fran O'Hanlon the name of which came from a surreal experience where he heard a preacher in Haiti who used to be the personal voodoo priest to Papa Doc during his dictatorship. Ajimal was his voodoo name.
In his own words, Ajimal writes about 'the way that music and medicine and art and ideas and science and stories and hallucinations combine and interplay' and this can be heard in his music which can be anything from acoustic folk to electronic haze. He has his first EP due out at the beginning of next year - keep your eyes (and ears?) peeled!
Check out his profile on Soundcloud here to listen to a bit more of him.
