Djuna began in the summer of 2007. The motivation was to create sensible pop songs that further provoked the listener - a concept deemed "candy-coated content". Their sound frequently demonstrates a relationship of human and machine - involving a drum sequencer that quarrells and complies with very human music; Ballads that sail but are threatened by collapse or explosion - sugary anthems enhanced with intellect... Rhythms are precise and connected to solid low-end, guitars range from provocative to atmospheric, vocals chase themselves and overlap with sensible melodies and meaningful content - and the sound is further sophisticated by compelling violin. These elements, paired with each members' experience and dynamic personality - give Djuna a very moving yet unpretentious sound and live experience.Influences include the Cure, Pinback, The Velvet Teen, Imogen Heap, Jeff Buckley, Radiohead, and Bjork.
