Ekca Liena is the more exposed solo project of Daniel W J Mackenzie, which uses varying degrees of drone, ambience, rhythm and noise to create dynamic, dramatic music. Melancholic quietude, psychedelic landscapes and doomed guitar passages are key aspects of the overall Ekca Liena sound, though glimpses of everything from warm electronica to modern classical show through. Graduals is the first Ekca Liena full length in over two years, the official sequel to the dreamscapes of the critically acclaimed Slow Music For Rapid Eye Movement.
