JRPJEJ is a post-traditional Circassian music group from Nalchik, North Caucasus. It’s not a band, but rather a musical community with an impermanent line-up. Jrpjej perform traditional music and try to find their own way to sound in the limits of canon. With the use of solely traditional acoustic instruments (shichepshin, apapshin, percussion, accordion) they create a dense and deep sound more typical of metal or experimental electronic. Jrpjej is a part of Ored Recordings label.
Special thanks to the Caucasian House in Tbilisi, Tamara Udjukh, Mikho Beroshvili, Thea Spector and all Ored Recordings supporters for fundrising for travel from Nalchik to Tbilisi
