Jakuta and Carl was founded in the past. They may exist in the future. Right now they are in a state of limbo. They like traveling, yet they don't. They like recording, yet they don't. They make music that is electroacoustic expressions of the current frustrating climate [which is warm, very warm, both in the heart and air]. List, en, joy!
Alzo performed on Third Rail Radio this Sunday and we gave you a shout out during the interview segment. I was really impressed with the professionism, courtesy, and obscure music knowledge of the WMUC DJs and technical crew. They're doing a great job! Hope you're well.

Most inspirational band in the world. Get out there, Do it, make pop songs, make noise, run out of the building! On Viva la 50's there's this one song, where after the dark scary intro, the beat comes in and starts scattering everywhere, then it becomes four to the floor thump, and Jakuta has this part where he sings "yeah! yeah! yeah! yeah!" and its awesome.
