V okviru koncertnega cikla Balkansko podtalje se na oder Gala Hale se v petek, 29. novembra vrača domači kitarski power-trio Lelee, ki bo predstavil svoj najnovejši album 'Mora malo u crveno', ki bo izšel za domačo založbo Moonlee Records v začetku novembra. Bend z novim albumom vstopa v zrelo obdobje, ki ga markira izvirno pesmopisje z avtorsko težo in želja po serviranju indie mojstrovin. Zaznamuje jih elegantna uravnoteženost med aranžmajsko svežino in uživaškim nažiganjem, ki v polni moči zaživi ravno na koncertnem odru. Za ogrevanje bodo poskrbel biser nove skopske kitarske scene Xarakiri, ki definicijo alternativnega rocka premika v skrajnosti. Nabrito mladostniška kitarska pokalica na transverzali od Vardara do Triglava!

Da pa se večer ne bo končal prehitro, bomo ob koncu koncertnega dela spili enega »ta kratkega« - Kafe za Šlagom, seveda. Za vse ogrete in željne »še!« ga bosta zakuhali Klara in Ines in vanj vmešali vse jugo disco, rock, synth, new wave - in kar je še sličnega - hitiče brez katerih sodobna balkanska glasbena scena danes preprosto ne bi bila to, kar je. Idemo, dokler ne zmanjka šlaga!

Lelee
(Ljubljana)
Transbalkanski trio Lelee se je od svojih začetkov v koronskih časih v ušesih poslušalcev hitro zasidral s svojo iskrivo in ubrano, mladostniško razigrano godbo, v kateri se prepletajo jugoslovanska novovalovska dediščina 80. let, indie in slacker rock senzibilnosti 90. let, jadranski temperament in etos sodobnih indie prerokov, ki navdih iščejo v preteklosti. Z novim, svojim drugim dolgometražnim albumom 'Mora malo u crveno' (Moonlee Records) bend vstopa v zrelo obdobje, ki ga markira izvirno pesmopisje z avtorsko težo in želja po serviranju indie mojstrovin. Album zaznamuje elegantna uravnoteženost med aranžmajsko svežino in uživaškim nažiganjem. To jim uspeva z uporabo širokega nabora zemljepisno in zgodovinsko raznolikih kitarskih izrazov in liričnih dovtipov, pa tudi s harmoničnim doziranjem poskočnejših ter ležernejših momentov. Zagotovo eden najmočnejših domačih kitarskih bendov ta hip.

Xarakiri
(Skopje, MK)
Xarakiri iz Skopja so eden skritih biserov mlajše generacije makedonskih bendov, ki podajajo svežo interpretacijo koncepta (alter)rokerskega tria. Lanskoletni EP in singl 'Sprotivniot kraj' je hitro zaokrožil po regionalnih underground sceni, ter jih tudi popeljal na regionalno turnejo v okviru katere so spomladi nastopili (in navdušili) tudi v polnem Channel Zeru v Ljubljana. Za fane bendov kot so Slint, Fugazi in Queens of the Stone Age.

The Slovenian indie-rock trio Lelee presents a new music video for the single 'Naprej' (translated as 'Forward') from their still-fresh album 'Mora malo u crveno', released under the Slovenian label Moonlee Records.

The music video is entirely the work of Ana Joksović (dzo_an_), who spent the past six months accompanying Lelee in the studio and at numerous concerts, meticulously documenting the band in action. As a result, the video is a collage of more or less amusing adventures from the life of this playful band, radiating a unique positive vibe that is also omnipresent on their new album, 'Mora malo u crveno'.

Upcoming Lelee shows:
23.11.2024 @ Rijeka, Palach (HR)
29.11.2024 @ Ljubljana, Gala Hala (SI)
30.11.2024 @ Zagreb, AKC Attack (HR)

Playful Slovenian indie-rock trio Lelee presents new album 'Mora malo u crveno', which was released today, on Friday, November 8, 2024, by the local label Moonlee Records. The album was released in digital format, as well as on CD and vinyl, with a noteworthy 'limited edition' on red vinyl in a limited run of 100 copies. The visual design of the album was created by Leon Zuodar – Lele.

Lelee – Mora malo u crveno
download/stream

Since its formation in 2020, the trans-Balkan trio Lelee, consisting of Jelena Rusjan (vocals, bass), Damjan Manevski (vocals, guitar) and Leon Stoilković (drums), has established itself as one of the key protagonists of the regional indie scene. The band has captivated audiences with its uplifting, playful and youthful expression – a blend of Yugoslav new wave aesthetics, indie-via-slacker rock sensibilities of the 90s, the ethos of modern-day indie mavericks revisiting the past for inspiration and a sprinkle of Adriatic temperament. Full of verve and drive, Lelee songs are characterized by hooky refrains and melodies that become ingrained in your skull and follow you long after.

With their sophomore album ‘Mora malo u crveno’ (in english 'It needs to go a little into red') Lelee are now entering their mature period, driven by a desire to serve up indie masterpieces based on original songwriting with emotional resonance. It is a gorgeous example of modern indie vitalism. Recorded live in one take, it finely captures the band's stage presence with its organic sound image. Permeated by joie de vivre, the album functions as a remedy to today’s doom and gloom. It is imbued with hope, sincerity and collective enthusiasm. The trio employ a wide range of geographically and historically diverse guitar expressions, striking a fine balance between inventive arrangements and all-out rocking.

Album was recorded and mixed by Robi Bulešić at BearTracks Studio in Kočevje in Slovenia. Mastering was done by Carl Saff. On the tracks Snaga, Nestaješ, and Rane, Blaž Gracar features on keyboards, while on the track Životinje the English musician and producer Alastair McNeill plays the keyboards as a guest.

On new album Lelee passionately follow the credo presented in the album title, which could be roughly interpreted as 'you gotta do stuff to the fullest'. Sometimes it is just necessary to give it your all, "redline" your energy levels, push yourself to the limit and reach the breaking point. To go beyond the limits of what is possible, step out of your comfort zone and climb the self-imposed barricades of your mind.

Lelee tour dates:

ŽEN so srčne ambasadorke do-it-yourself pristopa, ki iz elementov post-rocka, shoegazea, prog indie rocka in neopsihedelije pletejo svojo (milo)zvočno tapiserijo, ki tudi na novem albumu ostaja atmosferična, mehkobna, sanjavo melodična in eterična. Za ogrevanje bodo poskrbeli Đoko, mariborski new wave/synthpop mladinci, ter zagrebška indie pop novinka Naentu. Čutna, zasanjana in melanholična koncertna poslastica.

ŽEN (Zagreb, HR)
Hrvaške glasbene čarovnice ŽEN so ene osrednjih protagonistk regionalne neodvisne scene zadnjega desetletja, ki iz elementov post-rocka, shoegazea, prog indie rocka in neopsihedelije pletejo svojo (milo)zvočno tapiserijo. So srčne ambasadorke naredi sam pristopa, ki zadnjih 15 let brez pavze nastopajo na festivalskih in klubskih odrih širom Evrope. Tudi na njihovem novem, četrtem dolgometražnem albumu 'Ciklus' (Moonlee Records, Vox Project) njihova glasba ostaja prepoznavno atmosferična, mehkobna, sanjavo melodična in eterična. Zasidran v tradiciji melanholične kitarske muzike s preloma tisočletja se njihov glasbeni izraz tekoče prepleta z dinamičnimi vplivi sodobnejših tokov dream popa in indie rocka ter ustvarja sugestivne zvočne pokrajine. Njihova estetika temelji na harmoničnih večglasjih, repetativnih in odmevajočih tonih, atmosferičnih kitarskih teksturah, izrazitih basovskih linijah, domiselnih bobnarskih vložkih in spretno umeščenih sintovskih zvokih. Zase pravijo, da so navadne lezbijke, ki igrajo nenavadno glasbo.

ĐOKO (Maribor)
Đoko so new wave/synthpop bend iz Maribora. Inspiracijo črpajo iz glasbe new wave bendov iz 80ih in 90ih kot so The Cure, Idoli, New Order, itd. Zvok, ki je rožnato obarvan, dopolnjujejo z melodičnimi sintisajzeri, elektronskimi bobni, melanholičnimi besedili in kitarami. Leta 2022 so izdali svoj prvi single, ki je dal pobudo ljudem, da prisluhnejo komadu in si nadenejo 'Puli'. Z drugim komadom so popeljali poslušalce do 'Blok-a 22'. Komad, ki je konec septembra 2022 postal popevka tedna na Valu 202 in se ob enem znašel v celovečernem filmu 'Kaj pa Ester'. Skupina je maja 2024 izdala svoj prvenec z naslovom 'To ti vračam, tvoje je'. Album je bil isti teden imenovan kot 'Plata tedna' s strani Radia Terminal. Skupina se je uspela predstaviti v kultnih dvoranah kot so MC Pekarna, Klub Gromka, MC Kotlovnica ter na velikem odru Kina Šiška in na Jutranjem koncertu pri Andreju, na Valu 202.

NAENTU (Zagreb, HR)
Naentu je indie pop izvajalka (ex-Tus Nua), znana po svojih skrivnostnih melodijah in izrazitih besedilih. Njena glasba združuje vplive indie pop/rocka, shoegaza in synth popa, da ustvari edinstven zvok. Naentu uporablja glasbo kot obliko terapije in piše pesmi, ki zajemajo širok spekter čustev. Besedila pogosto raziskujejo osebno rast, nianse zaljubljanja in razhajanja, izzive queer identitete ter težave življenja v kapitalistični družbi. Z glasbo želi Naentu pri poslušalcih vzbuditi grenko-sladek občutek – bežno žalost, ki poudarja minljivo naravo čustev in življenja samega.

The Slovenian indie power-trio Lelee presents their latest single and music video Životinje, announcing the release of their new album 'Mora malo u crveno', set to be released on November 8th, 2024, by Slovenian label Moonlee Records.

Životinje is the title track and a high-energy introduction to the upcoming Lelee album, revolving around playful riff variations and a powerful 'collectivist' chorus that brims with irresistible enthusiasm. It’s a truly exuberant indie revelry, calling for action!



The music video for Životinje is entirely the work of Belgrade artist Stefan Ćirić, who operates under the pseudonym Teardropz. He commented on the collaboration: „A big thank you to the Lelee team for allowing me to visualize their music and the message they convey. In today’s world, things have become strange and cruel. That’s why we rely on ourselves and our loved ones to help us navigate this difficult path. Let’s work together to make this place we call home a better one.“

Životinje was recorded and mixed by Robi Bulešić at BearTracks Studio in Kočevje in Slovenia. Mastering was done by Carl Saff. English musician and producer Alastair McNeill, who has previously collaborated with artists such as Róisín Murphy, Honne, Yila, and Chris Eckman, features on keyboards.

The release party for Lelee's new album will take place on Friday, November 29th, 2024, at Gala Hala in Ljubljana, where they will be joined by the Macedonian post-punk youngsters Xarakiri. More concert dates will be announced soon.

Seven years after their last full length album, sonic enchantresses ŽEN are back with a new album 'Ciklus', which was released today, Friday, September 13th 2024 for Moonlee Records from Slovenija and Vox Project from France. Album is released as digital, but also the 12“ vinyl and CD are coming soon as well (PRE-ORDER NOW).

ŽEN - Ciklus - stream/download

ŽEN established themselves as one of the key figures on the regional independent scene of the 21st century. Since 2010, they have been crafting their delicate sonic expression by blending elements of post-rock, shoegaze, prog indie rock, and neo-psychedelia. ŽEN are passionate ambassadors of the DIY ethic, remaining active on the European live music circuit for nearly 15 years. Since the early days, they have been in full control of their booking schedule as well as the design and production of their merch. They also built and equipped their own studio, where they independently recorded their latest album.

Two years ago, Eva Badanjak (guitar, keyboards, vocals) and Sara Ercegović (drums, synths, vocals) were joined by Jelena Božić (bass guitar, vocals), who replaced Ivona Ivković. The new lineup naturally brought a fresh dynamic to the rhythm section and the construction of tight grooves. Their fourth album, 'Ciklus', marks an important new chapter in their discography. Its title symbolizes the end of one chapter and the beginning of a new one, while also referencing the female menstrual cycle, which represents the cyclical nature of life.

On 'Ciklus' (Moonlee Records, Vox Project), their music remains recognizable for its atmospheric, dreamy and ethereal character. Rooted in the melancholy guitar-driven sound of the 90s and 00s, the expression seamlessly absorbs the influences of contemporary dream pop and indie rock, creating soothingly immersive soundscapes. The new album is built on tight vocal harmonies, repetitive and echoey tones, rich guitar textures, prominent bass lines, creative drumming sequences, and skillfully incorporated synth lines that enhance the overall atmosphere. ŽEN once again demonstrate their exceptional sense of dynamics, delivering bold and striking vocals, powerful walls of sound, and riffs that pierce through the speakers.

ŽEN recorded the album in their own Zagreb studio Tralala, with Eva Badanjak at the helm of production. The mixing was done by their long-time collaborator Saša Rajković Zarkoff, while the mastering was done by Dutch music producer Martijn Tyrell. The album cover was designed by illustrator Klasja Habjan. Through such collaborations, ŽEN want to promote the work of visual artists they particularly admire, a practice they first introduced on their previous album Sunčani ljudi (2017).

As a band, ŽEN are now in a creative phase where there's no room for compromises. They take pride in their position as a pioneering lesbian band, their perseverance and principles. With this album, they solidify their position on the scene - ordinary lesbians who create extraordinary music.

ŽEN tour dates:
12.10.2024 @ Gallneukirchen, Altes Hallenbad - Klangfestival (AT)
26.10.2024 @ Zagreb, Attack (HR)
08.11.2024 @ Ljubljana, Gala Hala (SI)

Moveknowledgement, the elders of Slovenian alternative music, present a new music video for the song Golden Glaze from their latest album 'Lying Cobra' (Moonlee Records, 2022). The animated video was made by Lučka Kenda.

The author describes the initial idea for the video: "When I first heard the song, I was on vacation. It was a hot summer day. I closed my eyes and from one sun emerged two suns, then three suns ... they spun in circles, until my eyelashes turned them into beams of light." The result is a calming and melancholic animation that beautifully complements the ambiental and dreamy song Golden Glaze. Meditative.

Moveknowledgement is returning to the concert stages, as they will perform at Hangar Teatri in Trieste on Friday, April 12th.

Energetic Slovenian indie-rock band Lelee presents new single and music video Rane, released on Friday, March 15th 2024, on the Slovenian label Moonlee Records. The music video was made by Bosnian photographer Edin Suljić.

Rane is an anthemic song in the distinctive Lelee style, characterized by tiki-taka passes between interwoven vocal melodies and colorful instrumental solos. The song draws you into a whirlwind of tenderly resonant and painful love musings, culminating into an unbreakable feeling where 'nothing hurts me anymore'. A beautiful and chatartic sonic journey.

The music video for Rane was created using a combination of scanning technique and stop-motion animation. It was directed by Edin Suljić, with production credited jointly to Ana Joksović and Edin. An impressive collection of over 3000 authentic scans required a great deal of dedication and careful craftsmanship to achieve the unique character of this nearly six-minute music video.

Rane is the first Lelee studio track with Leon Stoilković on drums, but also the last track with keyboardist Blaž Gracar. The song was recorded and mixed by Robi Bulešić at BearTracks Studio in Kočevje. Carl Saff did the mastering.

Croatian prog-indie-rock trio ŽEN has released their third new single and music video entitled NEDAMISE and announced their fourth studio album named 'Ciklus' to be released in June this year by slovenian label Moonlee Records.

The song describes the resilience of individuals who find themselves in an unfavorable and demotivating position within a particular relationship and in society in general. What may appear as resignation at first glance actually depicts resistance against everything that is demotivating, and a conscious decision not to conform to the expectations of others, but to remain true to ourselves.

The single NEDAMISE is the first release by ŽEN in the new lineup – at the end of 2022 Eva Badanjak and Sara Ercegović were joined by Jelena Božić on bass and vocals.

Just like the previous two singles, this one was also recorded by the band themselves in their Tralala studio, with Eva Badanjak as head of production. The mix was done by Saša Rajković - Zarkoff, with whom the band has been collaborating for several years, especially since the album Sunčani ljudi. Dutch producer Martijn Tyrell is credited for the mastering.

After releasing two singles from their third album 'Naizust' (Moonlee Records, Vox Project) the Zagreb based trio SEINE released the third single and music video 'Zakaj', announcing the upcoming concerts at the MENT Ljubljana festival and Vintage Industrial Bar in Zagreb.

The music video for the song 'Zakaj' (in english: Why) is the first video by the band that was not produced by Marina Uzelac but was instead independently produced in a DIY manner. With this, SEINE are closing the 'Naizust' chapter and dedicating themselves to working on a new album.

SEINE is a project by Ivan Ščapec, which became a band in 2016. The current members are Dimitrij Petrović, Vatroslav Živković, and Ivan Ščapec. So far, they have released three full-length albums for the Slovenian label Moonlee Records and have played more than 200 live concerts.

Energetic Serbian post-punkers Gazorpazorp are kicking off the new year with a new single and music video for the song 'Dišemo zajedno', announcing their upcoming debut full-length album set to come out later this year.

The music video for their new single 'Dišemo zajedno' is the work of Vladislav Andrejević and Nastasja Latković. Gazorpazorp are straightforward about their new song: "With this song, we celebrate the moments of togetherness and freedom that happen during our live performances, and we dedicate it to our audience. We have more in store, stay tuned and see you soon!"

Croatian trip-hop introverts SEINE have released a new music video for the song 'Malolije', directed by Marina Uzelac and featuring the famous Serbian actor Bane Trifunović.

'Malolije' is the second single from the critically acclaimed album 'Naizust', released in 2022 on Moonlee Records and Vox Project, which topped many of the best album of the year lists. The music video is the result of a crowdfunding campaign Signed Collection, organised in collaboration with webportal Ravnododna, in which the band's fans supported the production of the video by buying their vinyls, thus funding the making of the video.

The video was shot in Pančevo, Serbia, and shows a meteorologist (played by Serbian actor Bane Trifunović) in a world where it never rains, even though the weather forecast is always predicting rain. See how the meteorologist deals with the situation in the video.

Lelee, the local heroes of the Adriatic indie-rock sound from Slovenia, are entering the new school year at full strength – with a new single and music video Snaga, which was released on Monday, 28.8.2023 for the Slovenian label Moonlee Records.

Lelee dedicates their new song to all the women of the world, and also to all those who feel this way. Snaga (translation: 'Strength') is a kind of hymn to the more beautiful, but by no means weaker gender, that celebrates chaos, enpowers and questions the generally accepted standards of beauty.

Inspired by the documentary film Gap-Toothed Women by the cult American director Les Blank, the band created the song literally in one breath. Lelee recorded the new single in Cosmosonics Studio in Ljubljana, with the help of Uroš Milkić as a producer, with whom they already collaborated on their debut album 'Čuka bije pumpa' (Moonlee Records, Ill in the Head Records, 2021). The music video was recorded and edited by Lelee in a do-it-yourself spirit, and with the permission of the director's family video footage from the documentary was also used in the video.

A celebration of beauty and happiness, in which the instruments intertwine and the vocals encourage each other - this is the main idea of this powerful and at the same time tender song, which Lelee deliver like a heart on a plate.

Lelee tour dates:
1.9.2023 @ Ljubljana, Kino Šiška – Festival Tresk (SI)

Slovenian indie-rock/post-punk band Lelee returns with a new single and music video for Nestaješ, released on Slovenian independent label Moonlee Records. The music video was directed by Ivana Ljubičić, a multimedia artist based in Zagreb.

Nestaješ is a true odyssey of fading love and suffering done the Balkan way. The psychedelic indie sound, reminiscent of regionally distinctive etno melodies and irregular rhythms, will take you on a trip through the rocky Balkans, where emotions run high, languages intertwine and everyone lives as if there is no tomorrow. Imagine if King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard got lost on their European tour and ended up in a tiny tavern in the middle of nowhere, got drunk with Vlatko Stefanovski while Altin Gün was playing on the radio – that’s exactly where you’d find Nestaješ, the latest song by Ljubljana’s Lelee.

The music video was directed by the Zagreb-based multimedia artist Ivana Ljubičić, a master of glitch and digital collage art working under the monikers Amio Mon and faded code. The director’s approach plus the band’s quirky energy turned out to be a match made in heaven, the result of which is a video full of shimmering visual effects, colours and raw emotion galore. Quite psychedelic indeed.

Lelee are set to debut the new single live at MENT festival in Ljubljana, on thursday, March 30 at Gala Hala.

NIKKI LOUDER – promocija novega albuma

Letošnjo drugo izvedbo festivala ŽMOHT 2022 zaženemo gromoglasno!

Domači noise rock favoriti NIKKI LOUDER se vračajo z novim, petim dolgometražnim albumom 'Ostani čista in kulturna', ki je izšel konec septembra za domačo založbo Moonlee Records. Kamniška trojka vztraja pri svojem značilnem glasbenem izrazu – udaren in bučen zvočni zid, ki ga premika kotaleča ritmična podlaga, skozenj režejo ostre in disonantne kitare ter bevskajoči vokali, kar skupaj tvori silovit in brezkompromisen zvočni izbruh s prepoznavnim podpisom Nikki Louder, ki je na novem materialo še nekoliko bolj eksperimentalen in kaotičen kot prej. Dodatna novost so vokali v slovenskem jeziku, kar je dobrodošla in osvežujoča nova dimenzija benda. In za konec še najpomembnejše, Nikki Louder so fantastičen live band. Hrup means noise!

Za ogrevanje bodo poskrbeli stari znanci domačih odrov v novi preobleki – trojec AUTO, ki riše kroge na razpotju med krautrockom, space-surfom in garage-noiseom.

Po koncertu sledi after z DJ USB.

Slovenian noise rock champions Nikki Louder enter the summer noisly - with the new, second single 'Trate' from the upcoming album 'Ostani čista in kulturna', which will be released in September 2022 for Moonlee Records.

Nikki Louder – Trate – download/stream

What does the new Novi Louder single deliver? If 'Internet teles', the opening single of the upcoming album, surprised and confused many listeners, the single 'Trate' put things in place. The song delivers a greasy wall-of-sound, driven by a rolling rhythmic base, through which sharp and dissonant guitars break through, topped by howling vocals, which altogether create a violent and uncompromising sonic attack with Nikki Louder's signature. The novelty, which also characterizes the entire upcoming album, is the vocals in the Slovenian language, which is a welcome and refreshing new dimension of the band.

Mr. Records na letnem vrtu Gala Hale predstavlja dvojno koncertno promocijo novih albumov domačih alter starešin Moveknowledgement in hrvaških posebnežev Seine.

Moveknowlegdement se po petletki zatišja vračajo z novo postavo, novo zvočno podobo, novo vizijo, novo založbo in novim albumom 'Lying Cobra'. Še bolj psihadelično, še bolj zatripano zasanjano, in še bolj razplesano.

Družbo na odru jim bodo delali hrvaški Seine, glasbeno verjetno najbolj samosvoj in potenten trio v širši regiji, ki na svoji najnovejši plošči 'Naizust' svoj glasbeni izraz še dodatno zavrtinči in začara.

Koncert z vrhunsko dvojno dozo sanjavosti in neulovljivosti.

Croatian trio Seine, one of the most original regional acts of the past half decade, returns with the third album 'Naizust', out on Friday, 22.4.2022 on Moonlee Records and Vox Project, delving deep into his whispery yet all-absorbing take on trip-pop mysticism. The album is now available on CD and in digital format, while the vinyl release is coming out in the fall.

SEINE - Naizust: download // stream // CD

If the debut 'Sno sna' (2017) was a strummy indie punk affair and its follow-up '22' (2019) bet on anxious and noisy trip-hop sonics, the new LP boldly steers towards stripped back arrangements and much calmer atmospherics while showcasing an even more pronounced pop sensibility.

Dropping the acoustic guitar for a DAW, most of the record is built from a modest sound palette of synthetic beats, floaty synths, off-kilter basslines and occasional guitar licks, esoteric feedback and Ivan’s unearthly androgynous voice that immediately swallows you whole. Acoustic drums sometimes blend with subdued digital claps and kicks while Ivan’s subtle vocal harmonies float on top of enigmatic melodic lines.

Hardly comparable to any other recent release, 'Naizust' provides a convincing riposte to a global music scene ever more obsessed with rehashing and hackneyed nostalgia where describing someone as authentic almost feels like an insult. With their new album, Seine confirms the status of one of the bravest and freakiest punk bands of the generation.

Pagan Ways – download/stream

What does Moveknowledgement have to say about the new single?
“The Clash of the Worlds has finally wiped us into a rabbit hole! What will happen when Alice takes us back to Wonderland? Will we fall into a whirlwind of sensual pleasures imbued with pagan innocence, or will an unspoiled kaleidoscopic landscape await us at the bottom, hungry for our bodies?”

Moveknowledgement are also already announcing the concert promotion of the new album, which will take place on May 14, 2022 at the Gala Hala in Ljubljana, Slovenia. At the concert, they will be accompanied by Croatian trio Seine, who will also present their new album 'Naizust'. Double album promotion at its best.
