Our Take

KRIES' latest offering, "Selo Na Okuke / Village Tracks," is like taking a musical journey through the beautiful Croatian countryside without ever leaving your front room. With a blend of traditional folk sounds and modern influences, this album is a breath of fresh air in a world filled with cookie-cutter pop.

From the moment you press play, you are transported to a world of rolling hills, crystal-clear streams, and picturesque villages. The hauntingly beautiful vocals combined with the intricate instrumentals create a sense of nostalgia for a place you've never been, but desperately want to visit.

Each track on this album is a gem in its own right, but the standout for me has to be "Dolina." The hypnotic drums and enchanting melodies had me swaying in my seat from start to finish. It's like a musical hug from your grandma - warm, comforting, and utterly delightful.

But don't be fooled by the traditional sounds, KRIES brings a modern twist to the table with tracks like "Moonlight Dance." The fusion of electronic beats and folk instruments creates a unique listening experience that is both familiar and fresh.

In a world dominated by mainstream pop, "Selo Na Okuke / Village Tracks" is a welcome reminder of the beauty that can be found in traditional music. So grab a glass of wine, put on your best pair of headphones, and let KRIES take you on a journey you won't soon forget. Trust me, you won't regret it.
