Bogdo Ula musicians are guitarist Samuli Kristian (me) and drummer Ivan Horder. Bogdo Ula combines free improvisation with energetic rock. The style reaches from hard rock to free jazz and experimental landscapes. The musical idea may grow from a simple melody line to a furious improvisation. For instance John Coltrane would give his band only two notes as the basis of a new tune. This idea has inspired Bogdo Ula to make music from a minimalistic starting point. Frank Zappa's idea of instant compositions on his album Shut up 'n' play yer guitar has also encouraged Bogdo Ula to go this way. Bobgo Ula is trying to achieve something fresh and instantaneous, something undefined. The goal is just to go with the flow of music, to achieve a total freedom of expression without any boundaries.
The music may be strange but beautiful. It's really great to improvise, express the feelings without words and let the music guide your way to the strange and unknown places. In literature Franz Kafka, H.P. Lovecraft and Edgar Allan Poe are great writers in "strange" cathegory. In cinema surrealist Luis Bunuel is one of the great masters.
