EXPERIMENTAL / FOLK / IMPROVISATION
"Very quickly, I liked something in these shadowy Balkan atmospheres where voices and strings predominate. There is such a sense of honesty in this music that it would be pointless to want to assign it a stylistic category."
The music of the experimental folk trio Kačis, consisting of Tea Vidmar and Širom’s Ana Kravanja and Samo Kutin, emerges from the field of adventurous folk music and the legacy of free improvisation. Taking notes from archaic global traditions, their exploratory expression transcends all familiar forms. Kačis presents an aesthetic characterised by an inventive interplay between rhythmic singing and the sounds of diverse noisemakers and instruments, which through improvisation grow into exquisite sonic reveries.
