This week, guitarist and music author Rihards Lībietis’ new original music album “Lines and Miniatures” was released, which includes ten instrumental compositions. Along with the album, a video of the second single “Šķelšanās” was released, which was created in collaboration with the creative association “Colortime” video artist Arvi Belova.
The song “Šķelšanās” and its video clip with the participation of guitarist Rihards Lībietis and drummer Tomas Kagainis also give a good idea of the whole album. “The single tells about the desire to get out of the routine for a moment, to hide from society and get out of the urban environment, as well as about the fact that by choosing to look at life situations with inner peace and from the sidelines, problems often become more solvable and less important,” says the musician. camp. The video was made in the studio of the creative association “Colortime” in collaboration with its video artist Arvi Belova, who reveals that with the filming of the clip, the studio has basically been consecrated, because for the first time it was played with loud drums and guitars. Projections, which have been chosen as a means of expression to represent the free space for thought and to illustrate the unifying motif of the album – lines as accurately as possible, play an important role in the video.
“Lines and Miniatures” is the second original music album by Rihards Lībiets, which is ideologically similar to the musician’s first album “RL Elektronix”, which was released in 2015. When writing his new compositions, Richard was inspired by post-rock and film music, especially by composers Thomas Newman, Oulavur Arnalds and Tony Anderson.
