ALA|MEDA|| (formerly known as Alameda 5) is one of the most innovative and original bands that emerged from Polish underground scene. Known for its genre-bending and genre-blending approach, the group has always been focused on reinventing itself and its musical language. Whether it was noisy and jazz-influenced krautrock of Duch Tornada (Instant Classic, 2015) or polyrhythmic avant-prog of Eurodrome (Instant Classic, 2019), the results were always ingenious, surprising and defying the clichés of musical canons. On their new album Spectra. Vol. 1, the band fully dives into the influences of African and Latin American rhythms that were already present to a smaller extent on their previous albums. The key word here is batida, musical style that originated in Angola and celebrated for its euphoric and syncopated rhythm style. ||ALA|MEDA|| expands this musical idiom in their own novel way, adding the influences of post-industrial, post-punk, gqom, IDM, dub and vaporwave. It leads to a unique tropical-industrial combination where avant-garde meets afro-house, complex sampling and granular synthesis are incorporated into frenetic live rhythm section. The main idea of the band’s new direction is a total fusion of electronics and live music and obliteration of all divisions between high and low arts, sublime and vulgar works, avant-garde and entertainment, music „for the soul” and music „for the body”. ||ALA|MEDA|| consists of five experienced musicians known from such bands and projects as: Innercity Ensemble, T’ien Lai, Hati, 3moonboys, Javva, Stara Rzeka, Jachna/Mazurkiewicz/Buhl, X:NAVI-ET and others.
