Basurolo by Jëkoff Sedofski
Jëkoff’s stories are illustrated in their band songs.
Season of citybike in Zürich "Passeggiata en Bicicleta". Mementos of dulce Argentinian redhead girlfriend "She said no". Dark secret escapes to Berlin with "Perversa". Tour to Mexico, through "El Paso".
(...)
It was 2011 in a secondhand shop where a Peruvian get to know an Italian friend, who was looking for a music note stand. Simone, before moving to Zürich used to play guitar in Koiné, a band from Bergamo in north Italy.
Coming back from Lima-Peru, Mauricio bought a Fender bass in San Francisco [saved some dollars picking -made in Mexico- model] and started to play with Mexican drummer, Gerardo, who was buying Duff beer the day they have met in his fav store -Liqueurs of the world.
The trio started to build songs and pitch a story… the myth of Jëkoff.
(...)
By 2012 tired of playing live covers, “disorder”, “shadowplay”, “she’s lost control”, “transmission” from Joy Division recorded Jëkoff their first Demo "Mi Mundo" in the hills of Zumikon, Zürich at Supertiger Studio.
After receiving noise complaints by neighbors, they rent in 2015 a bunker on the suburbs of Seebach. [In Switzerland, it is still quite obligated to have some shelters around]. Bunker swapped into a music studio where Jëkoff recorded by themselves single "El Paso" and named its place -La Cueva.
Lately in 2017, Jëkoff sealed first album "Basurolo". In the name of all those who did not believe nor paid their debts.
Songs were recorded, artwork was designed, and Covers were printed following a DIY culture. However, mix needed a Peruvian master-guru and sound engineer -Chinen el Saito.
Jëkoff play still together.

What began as a musical experiment develops into the story of me, Jëkoff Sedofski, a myth that allows itself to be told through the relentless loud sounds.
The new album is called “Non sono un robot_” (2023) where the musical evolution of the band is delightfully exposed with 6 fresh tracks. This production brings us a mix of powerful reefs, ironic lyrics and explosive rhythms.
