Joxfield's Discography

Joxfield's Discography

Album # 23 (as DJ&M)
Baroque Or Odd (Digital Album + Limited Edition 2xCDR Tin Can Music/Tin Can Music Division of VAHP 2019)

“Baroque or Odd” by DJ&M – A Joxfield ProjeX Associate
In 1968 Janne & Stefan of Joxfield ProjeX had made music together for a couple of years as DJ&M, short for DonnoJanne & Maecs. Simple music just like kids do, but sometimes with an experimental touch. Even though they didn’t have any tape recorders until autumn 1969 they composed and organized albums as if it was for real. Having heard The Beatles’ self-titled “White Album” they were inspired by the concept of doing a double album, which they thus also did. Between December 1968 and February 1969, they wrote the 30 songs that became the DJ&M “virtual” double album “Baroque or Odd”. To override The Beatles DJ&M added a four track EP to the double LP. Cover art and various inserts were made in two copies, one each, as usual, but no recording. As usual. Janne had just turned 15, Stefan had four months left before his 15th birthday. Just kids.
As The Beatles’ “White Album” celebrated it’s 50th anniversary November 22 2018 the idea came up of making a constructive and creative interpretation of the 34 songs of “Baroque or Odd”. The music had been written down in a self-invented note system where you could see which note it was, but not its value. You had to memorize the specific melodies.
Sheets for 32 of the 34 songs were found in a closet. Most of the melodies were forgotten, but by reading and playing the self-invented note system various parts of the songs could be remembered, recovered and become the starting point of the interpretations of the songs. One of the songs, “Jar”, was a description of a cut-up sampled piece and this way of making music became inspiration for the two lost songs on the album ("I Am Embittered" & "With A Blue Balloon").
Between late November 2018 and January 2019 recordings, mixing and masters were done. 41 tunes in 85 minutes (the four track EP became five, the last song of the album is in seven parts, all in all 41 tracks). A double LP with an EP. Some kind of experimental progressive pop.
As Bandcamp have a short stop between tracks the tracks B4 & B5 here presents as one, as well as the BoO EP's five tracks is presented as one, and finally the 7 parts of D4 Guinea Pigs Song suite is presented as one single tune. Future physical releases will split these tracks into individual pieces
Released on February 7 2019 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of its making
Enjoy!

And then let’s see what the future brings with it…

The track presented here are actually two, back to back, “I’m Bach” (0.32) and “Friendship” (3.40), track 4 & 5 of Side B.

Enjoy!

DJ&M - THE BAROQUE OR ODD PROJECT

Inspired by The Beatles' White Album release November 1968, DJ&M (a.k.a. Donnojanne & Maecs, much later to become Joxfield ProjeX) wrote an album consisting of 30 songs, meant to be spread over 4 sides of a double LP. This was completed in February 1969. 
The title of that album should be ”Baroque Or Odd”. 
Of course it wasn't recorded. Having no studio or money at all and being super-amateurish 14 – 15 years old kids it was nothing to talk about. It never happened.
But, who knows, maybe a newly recorded interpretation of the whole ”Baroque Or Odd” album may show up 2019, some 50 years since the last Donnojanne & Maecs activities.
Stay tuned!
