MiniMa Teaser
MiniMa! Next Friday, 14.5., the catalogue of Ma Records will expand by four amazing releases! Give yourself some time next weekend for new and brave music.
Ondřej Galuška – Ligeticitations
"Is a decontextualized quotation of music still musical? Can these elements form a new composition? Do they somehow contain other possibilities of continuation and connection? To what extent is this a random process and to what extent is it limited by the possibilities of the original composition?"
Ian Mikyska - Strings, Water, Leaves, Air
"Each piece on this album was created as a multi-track improvisation during a long session with multiple infusions of one kind of tea. Palimpsests; meditations; compositions in layers of time. They are homages, in a way, but also invitations – to sit, to brew a pot of tea, and to listen."
Radim Hanousek - ESCAPE
"During my study stay in Portugal, I recorded dozens of hours of field recordings in Lisbon, Peniche, and Sintra, and prepared a simple graphic score inspired by the phases of the waves of the sea in relation to wind speed. During the covid isolation time, I asked six Czech and five Portuguese musicians to interpret this score. They contributed their personalities and creativity without any idea of the whole."
Vojta Drnek - Lullabies
“Lullabies are songs that ring out through our souls before we fall asleep. That is, when our souls are at their most open, most sensitive, most vulnerable. It is a time when our minds are resting, wandering through various dream worlds, tired and at the same time full of unsettling creative energy, unable to stop thinking. When I went to record this music I tried to embrace this state of mind and express it in my playing.”
