Ruff Majik - Elektrik Ram (Vinyl/Record)

Ruff Majik is a fuzz band from South Africa.

Elektrik Ram was written and recorded between 2020 and 2022 after Johni Holiday found himself in and out of mental health and recovery facilities, struggling with severe agoraphobia and substance dependence brought on by PTSD.

In the lyrics and structures of the songs, Johni painted character sketches of the many faces he saw inside the white walls of the hospital - and this became the framework for the entire album. The recordings happened as the band found time to go into studio and contribute, and the process aided Johni in his recovery and rejoining of society.

It sees the return of Ruff Majik's experimental nature, moving between fuzz filled wonderlands and somber acoustic territories.
