WHY?
CIAM ain’t no ordinary band. Its pronounced si am and also the acronym belonging to the Congress Internationaux d’architecture Moderne, a body set up between 1927 and 1956 to redesign, restructure and rebuild modern Europe.
IDEALISTIC?
You bet. Talk about remake, remodel – CIAM don’t see boundries between music, math, art, film, science, design, creationism, Darwinism; if it sounds good, looks good, feels good- then forget the politics, it’s in.
WHERE?
Bizarrely, CIAM is the only music/art project on the planet whose members manage to work effectively together with members based in London, Tel Aviv and latterly, Scandinavia. Airmiles ? oh yeah.
HOW?
Album has been in the making in the last 12 months between: London, Tel Aviv and Norway. Produced by CIAM, together with star producer John Fryer who has mixed the whole album, as well as some tracks with Paul Corkett (Nick Cave, Placebo, the cure).
Great NYC Show! What an incredible night. This show was well worth the wait, the music is just as intense and hypnotic live, as on it is on your CD. The only question one can ask now, is... when will you be back?
Amazing show last Thursday, thanx! double thanx for the Dont want to understand, Jeff, so very appreciated! and triple thanx for the drumsticks, i'll use them wisely (perhaps as mascot-sticks:). Anyway, was incredible!! Cheers, RL / opioids
