Three years after releasing his debut album Pilotinstaller, Slovenian extraordinary Ales Uratnik a.k.a. NON FINIRe mai produced a new masterpiece untitled "Katzenjammer". It's inspired in part by the Rudolf Dirks comic The Katzenjammer Kids from 1897 featured Hans and Fritz, twins in the battle against any form of authority. The extended meaning of this word today is unhappiness, depression, the more general sense of what one might call a case of the willies. Album is featuring experimental drummer and percussionist Adam Kriney (ex. The National Blue) from New York City as well as mastermind Camden Chamberlain (Deliccato) and his lovely wife Vanessa (Geisha Glory) from Salt Lake City. This CD presents a cocktail of avant rock, electronic, jazz, industrial, folk and experimental music. It's beautiful, darkly seductive and absolutely brain busting.
Check out new video for "Keep away from children" from the new album.
Video is produced by Kiyash Monsef, featuring drama, dance and comedy actor Maurice Charierre. Go to www.nonfiniremai.com to watch it!

This is an awesome album. Ales takes many divergent musical genres and combines them into a fresh, flowing, solid, experimental sound. The production/mixing is excellent. The arangements are intriguing. The percussion is crisp and interesting. The guitar and vocals, great. The electronic sounds, effects and intruments right on. I love the exotic cultural element that shines through the songs, making the music sound foreign, but human and worldy- like the artist is from a land I'd like to visit. The quality I like most about the album is it's unpredictableness. It never gets boring. It takes many unpredictable turns and always ends up somewhere sounding great and feeling good. My favorite tracks are Propellerboy, Launched, Razbit, and Passing On. Absolutely incredible, these songs really get stuck in my head. This album must have involved a lot of work because the detail, quality and uniqueness in every song is very apparent and more and more depth is available to the ears with each listen. Hope you enjoy too!
