about

REFAIM came into life in the beginning of 2022. A shared interest in animism, ancient rituals & psychedelic music have drawn REFAIM’s members from the deep sheol of Kiryat Hamelacha in southern Tel-Aviv. Taking inspiration from Aldous Huxley’s notes on his mescaline trip, REFAIM have found the Hebrew term of “Heut” (Isness), as the best microcosm for their musical trip.

The music of “Heut” is a synergy between the different musical aesthetics of REFAIM’s members - King Isxan’s Yuval Manor (guitar) has a passion for Kraut & middle eastern sounds, Roni G (drums) is a total Dead-head, and probably jerry Garcia’s descendant, Elvin Shelly (bass) brings an austere punk rock attitude, and multi-instrumentalist Yotam Aloof offers his genuine composition skills.

Their vision was conceived into a full album in one humid & sunny Levantine weekend, recorded live by Assaf Shahar (King Isxan / Häxxan). It was then mixed & mastered by Erik Wofford (The Black Angels / Holy Wave). “Heut” is a fascinating neo-psychedelic rock nugget, which will appeal to fans of such bands as Spacemen 3, Kikagaku Moyo, Minami Deutsch, Föllakzoid, Wooden Shjips, Dead Skeletons and The Asteroid #4.
