(Zero Nove Nove) 2025.
CD/LP/digital
World music/ambient/folk – CYPRUS
From Nicosia comes a trio called Nabu Pera, which promotes its musical opus to the world and to the listening audience in an interesting, innovative, and unusual way.
Their album is called „Soundscapes Of Nicosia,“ contains 7 tracks/themes, and is fundamentally spiritual in nature. The album is about Nicosia and Cyprus, but presented in a way that can be viewed from multiple perspectives, through a spiritual, lyrical, and emotional lens, where the mutual communication of the performers and their intuitive sense of handling the instruments, atmosphere, and arrangement solutions, comes to the fore. By frequently listening to the material, you get the impression of hearing the sounds of nature, sounds of some past times, but all of this is realized in a way that intertwines numerous diverse themes. It is a kind of world music, but with additions of Balkan and folk influences, as well as ambient touches, which make the offered form complex.
Of course, it is difficult to determine a time frame or some period that may have influenced this trio, which consists of a girl and two men, but they have offered their perspective, which is free from any barriers. The album should be viewed as a harmonious whole and as a kind of conceptual release.
Iz Nikozije dolazi trio naziva Nabu Pera, koji svoj muzički opus na zanimljiv, inovativan i nesvakidašnji način promoviše ka svetu i slušalačkom auditorijumu.
Njihov album se zove „Soundscapes Of Nicosia“, ima 7 numera/tema i u svojoj osnovi poseduje spiritualni karakter. Album je o Nikoziji i Kipru, ali obrađen tako da se može posmatrati iz više uglova, kroz duhovnu, liričnu, emotivnu prizmu, gde do izraza dolazi međusobna komunikacija aktera i njihov intuitivni osećaj tretiranja instrumenata, atmosfere, kao i aranžmanskih rešenja. Često preslušavanjem materijala stičete utisak da slušate zvuke prirode, zvuke nekih prošlih vremena, ali je sve to realizovano na način kroz kojeg se prepliću brojne raznovrsne teme. To jeste neka vrsta world musica, ali sa dodacima balkanskih i folk uticaja, takođe ambiental uplivima, koji čine kompleksnost ponuđene forme.
Naravno da je teško odrediti vremenski okvir ili određeni period koji je eventualno uticao na ovaj trio kojeg čine devojka i dva muškarca, ali oni su ponudili svoje viđenje koje je isključeno od bilo kakvih barijera. Album treba posmatrati kao skladnu celinu i neku vrstu konceptualnog izdanja.
