345 is a collection of experimental pop songs by aga ujma, written singing out loudly while: (1)riding on motorcycles, (2)cycling on lime bikes, (3)hiking in Polish mountains and Indonesian volcanoes. Aga accompanies herself with: (1)a prepared harp, (2)toys, (3)a ship-like East Indonesian zither called a sasando, and (4)a percussive brassy shimmer of a xylophone called a gender barung that belongs in the gamelan ensemble. Aga's vocal experiments extend from (1)pop runs to (2)whistle tones, from (3)whispering into your ears to (4)screaming from the top of her chest, all garnished with (5)stacked harmonies. Lyrics, written while falling in and out of sleep, examine: (1)dancing with ghosts, (2)courage, (3)cowards, (4)finding and losing homes, (5)wet dreams, (6)Tarkovsky, (7)spending time with your inner child, (8)desperately and unsuccessfully trying to follow the thread of your own dreams, (9)dealing with snake people, (10)paying invoices, (11)waking up in unexpected places, (12)peas. Singer, composer, and multi-instrumentalist Aga Ujma grew up in Poland raised on a diet of folk music from the mountain village where her mother was raised. Signing herself up a music school while only 8 years old to study classical piano and musical theory, Aga became obsessed with Gamelan music. Moving to Java in her twenties to study traditional music and sing at the Indonesian Institute of Arts, she joined an experimental music collective and toured extensively around the Indonesian archipela
