The band got the name from
the word Dharma, meaning the laws of life. In whatever
case, it is a law that connects everything in existence
no matter how diverse they are. This is how the
band explains their music, having rather dissimilar
musical influences that results into a dynamic sound
that still meets halfway as it appeals to a certain
group of listeners almost everywhere. The
four combine their love for Rock, Neo-soul, Acid
Jazz and Electronic music ranging from Jill Scott,
Robert Plant, Janis Joplin, Elton John, Stevie
Wonder, The Doors, The Cure, Incognito, Spyro
Gyra, Zero 7 , Photek, Portishead and even John
Williams to name only a few of the band's list
of musical heroes and geniuses.
Being members of different groups
for some time they say, their preferences have
been very much compromised since only having an
either-or-approach on bands would be acceptable
to a lot of people. When they have finally decided
on taking separate ways from their now-defunct
groups, they've made a subconscious merge of a
tangled-up, smacked-down groove not anyone has
been able to give a name yet since Fusion as a
collective genre came out.
