The CD Mahkalahke marked the beginning of the band Transjoik, and has become almost an icon for the use of yoik as a starting point in new musical contexts. For many years, Mahkalahke has been inaccessible to most people. The CD was released as a separate release in both the US and Japan and received rave reviews from both the press and the public. Nevertheless, the changes in the record market meant that Warner in Sweden had to close down the distinctive label Atrium and not print new editions. In collaboration with Warner, we have provided the original master and the CD cover, and hereby Mahkalahke is now relaunched as a digital release.

This is Snorre Bjerck's debut CD, a terrific production where the groove, vocal elements and an intense nerve create world music you have never heard before. On sale from October 24, 2006.
Those who are interested in world music may have experienced this fantastic percussionist on stage - either in the group Transjoik - or in one of his own projects. He has developed a distinctive style where his treatment of percussion instruments from around the world, distinctive vocal use and electronics merge into a wonderful mix. This CD is his debut as a solo artist.
