| For as many years as Dark World has sponsored and promoted
free-style musical jam sessions by our artists we still get the same questions.
What's it all about? Why do you do this?. |
| Dark World has long been noted as a unique independent
music industry entity. Surviving for over a decade, we've created tremendous
artist and fan loyalty due to our continued commitment to artistic endeavors
over commercial success. With our primary focus on the health and happiness
of our artists, we recognised long ago that sometimes musicians just need
to let loose in the studio. To that end, we created and sponsored our jam
sessions. |
| Rooted in a firm belief that music is created from sound
rather than traditional restrictive recordings, Dark World used the jazz
element of improvisation (the ability to create new music spontaneously)
as a basis for these sessions. Leaving our artists unrestricted as to what
they would do and opening the studio to friends and guests of our artists
brought non-mainstream genre influences such as noise, experimental, and
avant-garde to the jams. Working with syncopation and electronic equipment,
our artists managed to create their own fusion style. The unedited, uncut
recordings were released as limited runs under the names 'Jam for the Dead'
and 'IMPs'. |
| Meat Jam is a collection of some of the very best of
these musical jam sessions. Edited and mastered by J.A.Bohr this iTunes
digital release includes performances from Dark World artists Kylyra, KarrArikh
Tor, Spike and J.A.B., as well as several studio guests and friends. Spanning
over a decade of recordings, Meat Jam is a gem-packed release for all Dark
World fans. |
