Members of Danish outfit Efterklang, along with Finnish percussionist Tatu Rönkkö, have formed a brand new band called Liima.
Liima (pronounced lee-mer) performed for the first time in 2014 when Rönkkö was Efterklang's drummer on the Piramida tour.
The music they make is difficult to describe - partly as the sources are both live recordings, partly because they don't really sound like anything else - but there are moments of electronica, ambient, pop, and experimental post-dance.
You can hear Liima's first ever gig (at Our Festival in Finland), and a live recording of five songs that were debuted at a private event in Berlin's Vox-Ton Studio, below.
