The band is completed by Tamás Schrottner (Guitar), Szabolcs Murvai (Bass) and Jozsef Szakács (Drums). Due to his gipsy background Zoli saw himself confronted with racism and prejudices. That’s why the band had to put years of work into its international career. The breakthrough came, when EKTOMORF started collaboration with Danish producer Tue Madsen in 2003. Madsen helped the band to find its very own sound: Super fat, modern and powerful EKTOMORF's lyrics reflect this situation and deal with discrimination, society, pain and anger but show a strong will to survive at last. Their music combines the burning fire of the primal gipsy music with modern elements: Groovy, down tuned guitar riffs and aggressive drums, supplemented by powerful and raw screaming vocals. « hide |
