Spare acoustic-guitar songs, lyrics in Croatian (?). Light touch on guitar; heavy, low male vocals. Poppy, folky melody, but in a downcast setting. Small backwards-played effects (or something sounding like that) adds a playful touch amid the gloom. Great rainy-day stuff.
FCC clean, although there’s a moment on 2 that’s phonetically unfortunate.
1- Morose
2- A sad simple melody, mid/fast. Some interesting sound effects in the background.
3- Interesting melody on guitar, hovering vocals.
4- Backwards effects become an interesting riff. Lyrics in short spurts.
5- Upbeat guitar pulse, slower sad vocals.
6- Slow folky picking, nice. Some percussion (tabla?) later. Sparse feel, replete with the sound of fingers on steel strings.
7- Slow waltz feel.
8- Instrumental. Comforting chiming rhythm with bass.
9- Instrumental. Pretty, calming guitar riff with some string/percussion noodling in the background. Ends awkwardly.
