Karakasa is the third tape from Norway’s Pajjama, but it’s their first full length, 40-minute masterpiece of synth prog. That description might be reductive though, because there are so many entry points for this record. Many moments still recall JRPG landscapes or futurist neon cities, but in a lot of ways Karakasa is defined by its adoption of repetition and the german kosmische aesthetic, employing darker harmonies and slowly unfolding structures to great effect.
