Description (Translated):

Himalayas,
The place where human breathing slows down the most.
Korean guitarists there
I rediscovered the essence of music.
Starting from the blues
And a new groove where the breath of the East meets.
Condensed energy and deep immersion,
The moment the performance begins
This place becomes a ritual.

Kailash Band's latest album is a sound performance documenting live ensemble playing in Charlie Chung's private studio. With minimal editing, the members' breathing, tension, and the flow of the sound are captured exactly as they are within the improvisational performance. Amidst the improvisation and repetition that flow like breath, the sound gradually deepens into a meditative state.

[Artist Information]
The Charlie Jung Kailash Band is a collective of musicians gathered around guitarist Charlie Jung, who has consistently led the Korean jazz scene. The fiery energy of seasoned drummer Lee Do-heon, Jason Paak, and Oh Won-seok creates a massive flow. Joining them are the rapidly rising free jazz guitarist Jung Won and percussionist Song Se-bin, who has mastered Brazilian music, to produce the most vibrant sound of today.


The Himalayas,
where the human breath slows to its deepest rhythm.
It was there that a Korean guitarist
encountered the essence of music once again.
Blues as the point of departure,
meeting the breath of the East,
a new groove is born.
Condensed energy and deep immersion.
The moment the performance begins,
this place becomes a single ritual.

This album by Kailash Band is a sonic practice,
a document of live ensemble sessions recorded in Charlie Jung's personal studio.
With editing kept to a minimum, the raw breath, tension,
and natural flow of sound between the members are captured as they are.
Through improvisation and repetition that move like breathing itself,
the sound gradually deepens into a meditative state.

[Artist Information]
Charlie Jung Kailash Band is a collective of musicians
gathered around guitarist Charlie Jung,

and percussionist Song Sebeen, deeply versed in Brazilian music,
together shaping one of the most vividly alive sounds of the present moment.

Description (Original):

히말라야,
인간의 호흡이 가장 느려지는 곳.
한국의 기타연주자는 그곳에서
음악의 본질을 다시 만났습니다.
블루스로 부터 시작해서
그리고 동양의 호흡이 만난 새로운 그루브.
응축된 에너지와 깊은 몰입,
연주가 시작되는 순간
이곳은 하나의 의식이 됩니다.

Kailash Band의 이번 음반은 찰리정의 개인 스튜디오에서 이루어진 라이브 합주를 기록한 사운드 수행이다. 편집을 최소화한 즉흥 연주 속에서 멤버들의 호흡과 긴장, 사운드의 흐름이 그대로 기록됐다. 호흡처럼 이어지는 즉흥과 반복 속에서 사운드는 점점 명상의 상태로 깊어간다.

[아티스트 정보]
Charlie Jung Kailash Band는 한국 재즈 씬을 꾸준히 이끌어온 기타리스트 찰리정을 중심으로 모인 연주자들의 집약체다. 관록의 드러머 이도헌, 제이슨 팍과 오원석의 불꽃 같은 에너지가 하나의 거대한 흐름을 만든다. 여기에 급부상 중인 프리재즈 기타리스트 중원과 브라질 음악을 섭렵한 퍼커셔니스트 송세빈이 합류해 현재 가장 살아 있는 사운드를 만들어낸다.
