This is unique stuff, make no doubt about it. Apart from being the only Macedonian live album pressed on vinyl ever (Leb i Sol also did it in 1982, but that was in another galaxy), this is very very cool and unexpected song collection. Dramatic and very unlikely gathering, that only PMGJAZZ can afford in the earth’s northern hemisphere. No exaggeration here at all.
Contemporary, avant guard Macedonian music, recorded live at one of the most authentic and intimate concert spaces Skopje can offer: Audiokultura. Brilliant sound design, meets wide range of fascinating musical talent, meets sophisticated understanding of art by Božinovski watches and jewelry. An honest and authentic investment towards development of a modern Macedonian sonic identity.
