Majer' s Brake Signs: Fish Fish - CD

The Majer brake pad plate means another shift. Into the fine thread of Majer' s instruments (mandola, guitars, zither, clarinet, saxophones, clarinet, double bass, violoncello, alt) in most songs the percussion instruments are approached, but also samlers. This brings the music closer to the floor plan of a normal dance song. The album manages to maintain the typical magical tension, secrets in music and lyrics in the Majerovky. Musically, the album, despite a certain shift to rhythmic explicitness, is a direct continuation of the previous development of Majerovky with their imaginative melodic motifs and a certain influence of minimalism in melodic minimotives. In the lyrics, Petr Linhart created a very distinctive author' s manuscript, which is unmistakable and one of the most inspiring in the context of contemporary music in our country. The authors of the cover, Karel Haloun and Luděk Kubík, also agreed with this when they printed the lyrics of individual songs in a booklet as a reverse of tarot cards. Explain how you can. Majerovky have the advantage and disadvantage that they have not yet made a record that would be “only good“, so the listener rightly assumes that every other opus will be very strong. Fish has fulfilled this assumption to a great extent. The performance of the singer Andrey Landovská also contributed to this, her captivating and magical alto is just finishing, this very pleasantly listening album.
