The Kilimanjaro Darkjazz Ensemble (TKDE) were formed in 2000 as a shape that would write original music for existing silent film like Nosferatu of  F.W. Murnau and Metropolis of Fritz Lang. Co-founders of TKDE, Justin Köhnen (commonly known as Bong-Ra) and Gideon Kiers, combined their audiovisual knowledge to create a highly cinematic noir atmosphere both in recordings and in their live performances which very aptly gave the definition darkjazz.

However the term darkjazz is unable to fully describe the entire musical spectrum covered by the compositions of the TKDE and includes in equal installments the orchestral genius of Henryk Gorecki and Cinematic Orchestra, the lyricism of Portishead, the atmosphere of Ulver and the power of orchestration of Godspeed You Black Emperor. On stage, all of the above, accompanied by the claustrophobic visual creations are combined with harmony with the “fantastic” movie soundtracks of TKDE.
