On her birthday, November 26, Aneta Langerov released the studio studio album Dv slunce. Darkly for one day, after six years, one of our best pop songs continues in the direction of the previous album Na Radosti.
Aneta Langerov is not one of those singers who would try hard not to disappear from the daily supervision of the public. There is no need to comment on any stupidity, jump in a sack on TV shows or sell your private life on the boulevard. And so do their inserts.
No need for her first two albums Lots of andl (2004) a Touch (2007) somehow erased from her personal history, but by Aneta, as we know her today, she started Langer’s bt and from this album, in this context known as I am (2009).
Although the album was produced by Martin Ledvina, but it is no coincidence that the ensemble Jakub Zitko and cellist Dorota Barov, two personalities who did not leave Aneta Langerová and are fellow members of her position on the current stage, were not missing.
The first appointed even as a co-author completely co-authored as a co-author of all songs, multi-instrumentalist and producer from the past album On Joy (2014). The potential of this multiple Angel album was richly used at many concerts and the new material was created probably and without any unnecessary haste.
Lidov ballad
In the production of Jakub Zitka, Aneta Langerov moves on the edge between intelligent pop and modern writing, which has incorporated elements of both rock (in some instrumentation) and jazz (in harmonics). A certain shift from the last album, which was mostly inspired by folklore, is u Two suns first in the shift to a kind of general dog killer.
Although something like an attempt to capture the people of simplicity and is not rebuked by the truth of Langer and Zitka, especially in some areas.
The crystalline, most striking example of this approach is one of the most impressive song albums Antonn. So just a sad story about death, they sing an obvious prophecy that carries only words a capella sings with the activities of the people of the ballad.
The paradox of the album is to try to work in the general sense specifically with sales poetics or, let’s say, the theme of traditional values, is a series of photographs by Herbert Slavek in the booklet. They capture the singing in various cities of old Prague, except for the notable albums, perhaps there would be only a backdrop of power atoms …
Without esoterics
You wouldn’t even realize it, Langer’s, or it would be programs in which some of her predecessors, mostly representatives of the best pop of previous generations, creep into her songs somewhere.
And so Marie by a murder and perhaps even by some melodic heme it evokes In the wall of a fern Jany Kratochvlov, zatmco Netopr m atmosphere a cosi ctnm pbuznho A ballad about a cornet and two Marty Kubiov.
It is not important that, in contrast to the hoarseness of both singing legends, Langer’s voice is like a nightingale, let’s not be fooled, after all, this year, on November 17, Langer’s proved that she could first enter the Kubi repertor. Both examples of coherence psn z Two suns with the history of Czech pop, they do not have to be at all from any dill, or by pointing out which line, by their (and Zitkov’s) means, Langer’s follow-up.
At home, Aneta Langerov is in dogs that have their own folk rock potential, such as Bl den or Same, possibly in those that are somewhat fusion and in them there is a noticeable compositional and / or aran touch of Jakub Zitka, see you Two suns or Na horch sn.
A great moment of the situation, when among the dogs, who more and more use me to express the singing qualities of Aneta Langer, at least once I really expand it as in the song How krsn is to be loved.
By the way, this undoubtedly medium-sized album is also an example of how the lyrics’ naturalness, simplicity and simplicity, which is very dark, work much more than the poetic and almost esoteric experiments that can be found in several places in the album. Natst few.
