Dikajee: Is out of this world!

Tweet

Russian folk-prog outfit Dikajee is out of this world according to Prog Magazine, and the album Forget​~​Me​~​Nots was released some weeks ago. On that album Dikajee have thirteen skilled guest musicians to carve out the weavings of folk, neo-baroque, neo-classical, progressive rock and whatever she find interesting. Forget​~​Me​~​Nots offers an very interesting and fascinating music and is a journey to create something new and exciting. The music is rather experimental and very nice and with subtle instrumentation and Dikajee“s voice is unique and elegant. The album have as mentioned great musicians and I must admit that João Filipe from Amber Foil, Guillaume Bernard from Klone and not at least Fiona Rüggeberg from Faun is fantastic musicians! Forget​~​Me​~​Nots is brimming with beauty, but a little more power sometimes had probably led to an even better music?!

Dikajee represents both art-rock, prog arrangements, and a real sense of orchestral momentum. Listeners can expect majestic, epic performed by the unique female voice of the lead singer. Dikajee may perform as a duo, as a sextet, and more, experimenting with the sound live and in the studio. The moods of Dikajee’s songs are melancholy and yet life-affirming. They are imbued with joyful spontaneity, fragility, and pure beauty!
