notes
The CD: Jambodia is the imaginary Kingdom of Ethno-Electric Rhythms, where the ancient and primal 'human musical experience' coexists and communes with 'The Now.'
The Premise: While musical expression has continually evolved and become more sophisticated over countless centuries, it is still the primal instinct that influences the expression of emotion through sound. The human psyche, even in this era of enlightenment, craves the primal and multi-ethnic rhythms that stir the imagination and excites the spirit.
The Description: Jambodia is best described as multi-ethnic, neo-classical, techno-electronic, funk! (Say that five times at a fast clip)
The Influences: Jambodia is heavily influenced by various progressive and modern musical styles; Jazz, Trance, Techno-Industrial, Club Mix and good ole' Rock n' Roll. A sometimes subtle to frequently obvious blend of cultural rhythms and melodies created with ancient instruments and sounds that imbue a stimulating flavor to the Jambodia brew.
The Track Titles: Driven by insights, experiences, and memories of exotic, mysterious places where the artist either visited or lived in over the course of two millennium.
The Artist: Actually, Dr. Von Zuko is a bit of an enigma even to those relatively few people who believe they know him quite well.
Frequently characterized as "reclusive," the strange doctor has been known to spend days-on-end locked away in his semi-secret laboratory, 'The Tower of Twisted Thought.' It is here, in the sanctity of his mysterious, technology laden tower, that the doctor masterminds his numerous, funky and usually off-the-wall creations.
Discovering performing arts, music, and technology in his early adolescence, Von Zuko earned his first real recognition as a guitarist, vocalist, sometime percussionist, and keyboard jockey in a fairly short list of popular rock, jazz, and even country groups. Roading' and radio play was personally enriching back then, (and a hell of a lot of fun) however it was the desire to eat regularly and live under a weather-tight roof that drove Von Zuko toward the more 'life sustaining' technologies.
The rest is history!
So now, submitted for your amusement and entertainment, I give you Dr. Von Zuko; "Digital artist, musician, composer, computer practitioner, and self-proclaimed ravenous archeologist."

Funky blend of genres with a really nice feel to it!
author: MayaI must admit that I was a bit sceptical with all of the five star reviews on this CD, but in my opinion Jambodia earns them. Don't know what it is about this work but it has a really nice feel to it. It is on the funky side but pulls together several genres that make for a really cool and interesting blend. It's getting multiple spins at my house, which rarely happens for any CD.
A Very Cool Discovery
author: Music MavenI found this CD quite by accident using your search tool. I was intrigued by the samples (and the bizzare profile) so I snatched up the CD. I must say this is quite well done. I love the energy of the songs, they are individually unique and intricate and quite stimulating. I think the first four tracks are esspecially hot! This is a great CD if you're making love, working out, driving an open road, or just chilling out! First rate!
This CD is too cool! It really does kick it up a notch.
author: Steve MillerI rarely take the time to write reviews but, this CD is smokin’ and has such a unique personality to it, I felt I had to weigh in with a few words! Super energy, upbeat, powerful and quite imaginative. I’m not only impressed by the slick blend of musical genres and styles but the production values are top end too. If you have a serious stereo system, the clarity of instruments, crisp tempos, subtle cultural expression, and some amazingly deep bass passages will blow you away! The really interesting part of this CD is that on many tracks the drums actually carry the melody. I’ve listened to it a dozen times already and I’m not the least bit tired of it yet. Like I said in the beginning, this one’s extremely cool.
If you like Trace & Techno, GET THIS CD
author: Paul MozolewskiFirst time i popped in the cd, I'm usually skipping to check out the entire CD, but not this one. Perfict mix of fast and slow pace music with soom mixing between beats. And there are two tracks on here for just the techno fans. Overall A++, glad I got this CD.
Hot new exciting sound
author: PegThis is a new hot, excting sound. If you are tired of the usual ho-hum music this is the CD for you. It will put a spring in your step.
Great music!
author: M LiI have been listening to this CD for quite a while and I really enjoy it. The upbeat rhythms keep me energized. There are a wide variety of music instruments used.It's the kind of music that you don't get bored with. I highly recommend it.
