New Album “Aucklandia” Out Now!

Finally! My fourth album is finished and out now on Bandcamp (soon on other stores). I am extremely happy about this as this has been the hardest album making so far. I hope that all the work was worth it.

This album is a process of over two years long time period. All of the songs were composed in Auckland, New Zealand except for one called “Gold and Fur” that I composed when I was back in Czech for one month.

I feel humbled that I could have a few amazing guests featuring on my album.

Markéta Foukalová

marketa

from her band Lanugo. She already did one song on Krasohled and I am very happy that she could have done a three more songs with me. Please enjoy her voice in “Kudy dál”, “Za Tmou” and “Kahu”.

 

 

Tomáš Belko

Tomáš wrote great lyrics for “Kudy dál” and supported me once again. Thank you!

 

 

 

Ohheejung 

ohheejung

when I bought her album off Bandcamp I had no idea that this would become a super-pleasant collaboration that brought a song “Don’t Die” that I consider one of my best songs so far. Please have listen to two more songs “Storm” and “Her Letter” that feature her beautiful voice.

 

Jo Joonghyun

jo

a friend of Ohheejung that made guitar parts for “Don’t Die” and “Jo”. I don’t know much about Jo besides his guitar hobby and that he really loves his cat.

 

 

Olga Königová

olga

from her band Ille sang on “Za Hlavou” which for me resulted in another favourite from the album. I feel lucky having the opportunity to connect with an artist like herself.

 

 

Mastering:

Tomáš Kahl

tomas

Tomáš is my man that prettyfies any song I give him. His mastering skills gave the album very full and strong sound.

 

 

 

Thanks to all the artists that are on my album or were involved in any part of the process.

It would make me happy seeing people sharing my music with their friends. Please feel free to listen to “Aucklandia” album as much as you like or give it to your friends. If you buy the album it is going to make me even happier.

If you like my music please get in touch, give me feedback or a poke.

Vzduchoplavec is now on bandcamp

Kubatko – Vzduchoplavec – my second album from year 2010 is now up for grabs on Bandcamp (for 1+ dollar – it’s up to you). This album received an award for the best electronic album for year 2010 in the Czech Republic. It would be too sad not having it on Bandcamp.
