Origam

Origam, 2005 yilinda , Serkan Eles ve Ali Deveci tarafindan, Ankara'da bir beste grubu olarak kurulmustur. Sahne aldigi çesitli konserler sayesinde, adindan övgüyle söz ettirmeyi basaran ekip, kurulusundan günümüze geçen kisa zaman periyodu içerisinde önemli basarilara imza atmistir.



2 Haziran 2006 tarihinde, istanbul Studio Live'de Pentagram onuruna düzenlenen gecede, Türkiyenin önemli metal gruplariyla birlikte sahne alan Origam, basarili sahne performansiyla dikkatleri üzerine çekmis, kendilerini izleyen Pentagram grubunun üyeleri de dahil olmak üzere izleyiciden tam not almistir.



Eylül 2006'da ilk besteleri olan "End Of The Game" adli parçayi Mars Stüdyolarinda kaydederek piyasaya sürmüs ve sarkiyla ilgili olarak, oldukça olumlu elestiriler almislardir. Kaydetmis olduklari bu ilk parçayla, dünyaca ünlü mikrofon firmasi Shure'nin düzenlemis oldugu beste yarismasina katilan topluluk, elemeler sonucu ilk bes grup arasina girmeyi basaran tek metal grubu olma serefine erismistir.



ilerleyen zaman içerisinde, aralarinda Ankarock gibi ciddi organizasyonlar ve ODTÜ, Hacettepe gibi büyük üniversitelerin senliklerinin de bulundugu, çesitli konserlerde sahne alan Origam, Mayis ayinda düzenlenen Sony Ericsson Unistar beste yarismasina; "End Of The Game" isimli parçalariyla katilarak 300 grup arasindan bölge finaline kalmayi basaran tek metal grubu olmustur.



Tüm bu gelismelerden cesaret alip çalismalarina hiz kazandiran ekip, 2007 yilinin Haziran ayinda çikarmayi planladiklari demonun kaydina baslamis ve 4 parçalik ilk demosunu, "End Of The Game" adiyla Temmuz ayinda piyasaya sürmüstür.



Origam, ilk günden beri bünyesinde barindirdigi amatör ruh ve zaman içerisinde kazanmis oldugu profesyonel bakis açisiyla çalismalarini sürdürmektedir.
