Zajtrk

Zajtrk is made up of Laura Krajnc (fiddle, voice and tambourine) and Sven Horvat (guitar, voice). Both are lovers of fables and tales, life anecdotes, theatrics and shenanigans, which is why they entangle it all into their musical creations. They allow music to take them where it desires, hence they are genre-fluid and genre-open, they use song to illustrate emotions, portray characters and bring stories to life. Their compositions intertwine folk and etno music with punk chanson, cabaret, jazz, blues, gypsy swing and alternative pop tunes. To sum up, Zajtrk is an etno-chanson duo! They strive to conserve Slovenian language in their texts, they fiercely critique social norms, they are mischievous and flirty, they stand for autonomous creativity and good humour. Their music reflects genuine interest in human and his and her comical, rebellious, confused, tragic, unhappy and happy life. Zajtrk sestavljata Laura Krajnc ( krotilka violine, vokala in tamburinčka) ter Sven Horvat (krotilec kitare, včasih pa tudi kaj zapoje). Oba sta ljubitelja pravljic, zgodb, pripovedk, smešnih anekdot, teatra in ostalih hudih muh, zato se vse to prepleta z njunim glasbenim ustvarjanjem. Glasbi pustita, da ju sama pelje kamor želi, zato sta žanrsko zelo odprta, saj z žanrom podpreta in ilustrirata emocije ter zgodbe v pesmih. Tako njune skladbe prepletajo folk in etno glasbo s punk šansonom, kabarejem, jazzom, bluesom, popom in rockom v trd, alternativni kantavtorski izraz. Če pa to strnemo, sta Zajtrk etno-šansonski dvojec. Prizadevata si predvsem za ohranjanje slovenskega jezika v besedilih, ohranjanje družbene kritičnosti in hudomušnosti, avtonomnosti ustvarjanja, dobrega humorja ter vnašanje ljudskega v glasbo. Njuna glasba odseva predvsem zanimanje za človeka ter za njegovo in njeno komično, uporniško, zmedeno, tragično, ne srečno in srečno življenje.
