Oedipus Domestika

About Me

I was born on 1984.07.23, I'm running this one solo (for now). The name Domestika came from the song by Björk called "Domestica". I had to add Oedipus b/c another band had Domestika. I guess u can give the so-called band the birth date of 2007.06.02, when I started making the album. My approach to making music is to never force anything and most importantly let the song be wht it is.
