Honorifix – new album out now

Just like that, there is a new album called “Honorifix”.

Honorifix

In a way it’s more a mini album but I am quite happy about it. “Honorifix” sums up most of my music intentions since “Aucklandia”. Most of the songs were affected by my love towards South Korea. Here is a few words about each song that is on the album:

1) Keep On – is featuring my two Korean friends – Ohheejung and Jo Joonghyun. Ohheejung wrote the lyrics and sang while Jo played all the guitar parts. I really like working with those guys as they are really fast and whatever they do I feel it immediately. I feel lucky knowing them as it makes me really happy hearing their ideas every time.

2) Love From The Star – the most dancefloor song from the whole album. The name is after Korean drama called “My Love From The Star”, I just felt like it suited the sounds. I am super happy about the way the bass sounds switch between each other as I feel it’s a fresh twist towards house songs made these days.

3) Anthracite – the other song fully featuring my Korean friends. I put the extended version here as the normal one has already been officially released. It’s the first song I made after “Aucklandia” album where I tried to come a little bit closer to breakbeat vibes.

4) Midnight Journey Remix – Virgin Lab. is a Berlin project but made by a Korean guy. I accidentally discovered this band on Bandcamp and the sound of the original song immediately caught my attention. Thanks to “Baxa” for letting me do my thing on their tune. I kind of feel like my remix sounds a little bit “Apparat”ish even though that wasn’t my intention.

5) Who Made You Remix – Remix of Ohheejung’s “Who Made You” has been on my SoundCloud for a while but I felt like it deserved its place on “Honorifix”. The guitar solo part being my favourite – this song has a bit of magic in my ears.

6) Heart Of Stone Remix – a while back I made two remixes for “Ceny Apollo” competition which resulted in nothing (basically they just cancelled it un-officially – not sure what happened there). Since then it has been lying on their SoundCloud. I too special attention on these remixes and I felt like I must put it somewhere. So it’s here, 6th place on “Honorifix”. Thanks to The Prostitutes for letting me use the remix on my album.

7) Too Many Knives Remix – probably my favourite remix I have ever done. Firstly I really liked Charlie Straight and I had lots of fun making this remix. It just worked exactly how I imagined it. A little bit dark, very electronic and taking it to another level. Thanks to Albert Cerny again for letting use this remix on my album.

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.
