Coming Soon…

the ajjancy presents Vivaldi's Four Seasons - a mind-blowing mashup journey that pairs the 12 movements of this baroque masterwork with some of the most beloved pop and rock songs of our time

Mashup Covers

Exclusive to YouTube - Like the classic rock greats who started with innovative covers that fed the beast of innovation, this debit album of mashups pairs radically different tunes with similar underlying harmonic and rhythmic structures, channeling that same ethos of experimentation

progressive classic rock mashup covers clever fun crazy ingenious fascinating experimental brilliant dazzling strange bonkers uncanny impressive captivating unexpected ballsy sly

A word cloud taken from actual critics' reviews of the ajjancy's debut album of mashup covers “To Be Arranged”

What the critics are saying

“Metallica paired with the Moody Blues on 'Nothing Else In White Satin' is a stroke of genius.”

— Daily Vault

“The most bonkers track is 'Frame by Style,' inexplicably but ingeniously pairing 'Frame by Frame' by King Crimson with 'Style' by Taylor Swift. You need to hear it to believe it!”

— Sea of Tranquility

“This isn’t just a tribute, it’s a deconstruction of the greatest pop and rock moments from the 1960s to the 90s and beyond, offering up a kaleidoscopic mashup of iconic sounds that defies expectations.”

— Progressive Rock Central

“Progressive rock fans with a good sense of humour should find songs such as 'Roundabout Thriller' and 'Frame by Style' being able to inspire a smile and a chuckle too.”

— Progressor

“Brilliant and flawed, this album simply keeps on exuding fun, spin after spin.”

— DMME - Let It Rock

“A sonic collage of old and new, with tracks that span the breadth of decades while adding an entirely new narrative.”

— We Write About Music

“Skillfully and brilliantly done. Often astonishing fusions of tracks and artists, which you probably would never have imagined together, repeatedly bring a surprised smile to your face.”

— Rock Times

“The musicianship is prog, the style is pop, and the vocals are sweet.”

— Musoscribe

“Everyone needs a smile now and then, and music created with a sly wink is a welcome diversion from the outside world.”

— Exposé

Bio

the ajjancy, moniker of NJ-native singer/songwriter George Ajjan, tackles recurring Gen-X & millennial themes of parenthood, coping with love & loss, and seeking hope in an increasingly desperate political climate. His non-musical alter-ego jets around the globe navigating the corridors of power, for which the ajjancy aspires to atone through meticulous song-craft, tempering the melancholic with a indefatigable glimmer of optimism.

If he “has agency” to make the listener think and feel, it’s thanks to a wide range of pop, rock, and classical idioms. Thus, the ajjancy’s originals, featuring session pros Fernando Perdomo on guitar, Dan Feiszli on bass, Matt Lebofsky on keyboards, and Terry Branam on drums, could be called chamber-rock: unexpected chord changes, the occasional odd meter, layers of instrumental parts and vocal harmonies: always melodic, sometimes sacrilegious - the gods of form be damned. Result: a pop-oriented distillate of progressive rock’s best elements without the derivative tropes and dated clichés.
