Východiska: Jan Nemeček a jeho ambientný návrat ku samplom

Nemeček svoj album odpremiéroval v novom Belehradskom undergroundovom techno klube Drugstore. Jeho doterajšia tvorba sa skôr pohybovala v oblasti pravidelnejšej klubovej rytmiky - minimal techna, house, alebo dubom ovplyvnených vecí. Album Fragmented je pre neho návratom ku ambientným korenom.

Aj keď z názvu a konceptu by sa mohlo zdať že Fragmented bude album postavený z množstva disparátnych mikrosamplov, znie skôr drone-ambientne, plochy granulárnej syntézy sa tu zrážajú so samplami a hlasmi, a pod tým všetkým pulzujú basové linky a občasné beaty. Nemeček sa netají inšpiráciou zvukom Tima Heckera, ale poslucháč by takisto jeho tvorbu mohol prirovnať ku niektorým veciam Bena Frosta, alebo ku tvorbe poľského hudobníka Jacaszeka.

Nemeček je zapojený v množstve kolaborácií, ako napríklad projekte Brickwall Brigade, alebo netlabeli Norbu. Koncom roka plánuje Nemeček vydať Fragmented ako kazetu v limitovanej edícií, na ktorej by sa ešte dodatočne hral zo zvukom tohto média.

Jan Nemeček is a Serbian producer and DJ, who recently released his third solo record Fragmented. He spent the last years in the town of Novi Sad, which he recently left for his hometown Belgrade.

Nemeček has premiered his new record in Belgrade's new underground club Drugstore. According to him, the audience of the club dedicated mostly to techno was really into his intense beatless ambient set. Nemeček's musical output has been mostly rhythmical club-oriented electronica such as minimal techno or house. For him Fragmented is a return to his early years of ambient and musical experiments.

The name and concept of the record may evoke a heterogenous album composed of millions of disparate samples. The opposite is true. Fragmented is an drone-ambient record with clashing surfaces of granular synthesis, samples and vocals, with pulsating bass and beats underneath. Nemeček does not conceal his inspiration with Tim Hecker, but the listener could also compare his music to some of Ben Frost's or the music of Poland's Jacaszek.

Apart from his solo project, Nemeček is also involved in several collaborations such as Brickwall Brigade, or the netlabel Norbu. His next undertaking will be a physical release of Fragmented as a limited edition cassette and a release and liveact by the Brickwall Brigade.
