Gangaloya is a long running project with a wide variety of styles. The tunes by the live band are hard punk with a smidgen of krautrock, whereas the studio material is trip-hoppy, sampledelic. Very difficult to sum up simply as no two tunes are the same

Details:
We have quite a history of odd gigs and recordings, from being involved in the Free Festival scene in the late 80s (the stories we could tell!!), onto computer based dance, trip hoppy stuff through to our latest live incarnation as a raw, progressive punk band, with a singer who once was a World Champion BMX rider.

The glue that binds us is a love of being involved and actually producing music. We are all able to swap roles in the band and everything we do is a collaboration. We have had many outside collaborators from vocalists to saxophonists to theremin players, all get to join in and contribute (unless we mix them out later ha ha!!!!).

Jamming is still a major part of how we work and is most often the root of the majority of our tunes, we pick out the best bits and re-learn them. We're not averse to a bit of sampling but we prefer to create our own loops, even going so far as to plunder our recording archive for inspiration.
