Happy Friday everyone! Today I’ve managed to find a bit of time for yet another, twenty-third, edition of Musicellaneous (hell yeah)!
And that for a good reason: I’m going to introduce you to the oriental djent funk by the Malay guitarist Poh Hock.

Friday, so it seems (I have to admit four weeks into self-isolation you tend to lose track of days).
This twentieth edition of Musicellaneous presents the Australian guitarist virtuoso Stephen Taranto skillfully playing djent on Abasi signature guitars.

A happy Friday the 13th everyone! This sixteenth edition of Musicellaneous features yet another portion of fascinating space djent played by yet another one-man band, the Polish guitarist Widek.
Widek owns a recording studio, which he used to record and mix more than a hundred bands.
It’s quite surprising how low-profile he is considering the number of musicians he played with.

It’s Friday again! This tenth edition of Musicellaneous features another unique project by a talented individual. I’m talking about the instrumental progressive metal band Andromida, which is in fact just one person: the American Ramon Gutierrez.
The band is unique because Ramon is “legally blind”, which was discovered when he was as little as three years old.

It’s Friday! This ninth edition of Musicellaneous presents romantic djent played by the American band Sea in the Sky.
Friday is always imminent! For this eighth edition of Musicellaneous I had to dig a wee bit deeper this time. So I’ve dug out one of the most mysterious characters of the instrumental prog who is hiding behind the Gru monicker.
And I do hope it isn’t related to GRU whatsoever.

Friday! This sixth edition of Musicellaneous features the model djent band Vitalism from Rio de Janeiro (Brazil).
Vitalism was started in 2014 as a solo project of guitarist Ed Garcia, who recorded a single called Gradus.

It’s Friday again, the time when music stars are falling from the sky, or now and then a whole nebula!
In this fifth edition of Musicellaneous I’d like to introduce the dear reader to The Helix Nebula, Australian wizards of instrumental prog metal, which sometimes diverges into djent and math rock.

It’s Friday, time to explore the realm of unfamiliar music again!
The unfamiliar is represented today by the Haamoja project from Taiwan playing djent/jazz/fusion.
Thank God it’s Friday! Which means it’s time for a next bit of my Musicellaneous micro-discoveries!
Our hero today is the prog-djent duo Victoria.
