two mixtapes




1. Premiered at Trans Balkan Express Radio Festival, curated by Žarko Komar aka Feloneezy, as a part of the Mediterranean Futures series on @movement_athens

Field recording gestures and in-situ interventions are gently placed into immersive ambient & drone explorations, while the musical narrative develops around extensive hydrophone recording of the terrigenous sediments and various aquascapes of the Adriatic’s littoral zones. Some of the locations where recordings were taken are the island of Korčula and its surrounding archipelago (islands of Badija & Vrnik), the island of Silba, Neretva River, Dubrovnik old town, and the island of Vis.

2. Premiered at ZEZ Festival 2023

The mixtape includes excerpts from the releases:
water memory – mnemosonic topographies of the Adriatic
Kuda plovi ovaj brod? Where is this ship sailing?
Awakenings LINE_138
