Donja Jeka (HR, PL)
Donja Jeka is a Croatian - Polish band, whose music deals with research and interpretation of older styles of vocal traditions connecting it to drone and ambient-like music with a minimalistic approach. Their approach to songs is characterized with an interest in its specific vocal qualities and acoustic characteristics, while trying to bring to light old tales, beliefs and customs. Searching for music’s own logic in traditional and contemporary concepts, Donja Jeka is trying to bring out their overlapping points and trajectories, with a reflection on music’s once applicable ritual function.

Glasba zasedbe temelji na raziskovanju in interpretaciji starejših vokalnih tradicij v povezavi z dronovsko in ambientalno glasbo ter minimalističnim pristopom. Njihovo delo zaznamuje zanimanje za vokalne značilnosti in akustične lastnosti pesmi, ob tem pa skušajo osvetliti stare zgodbe, verovanja in običaje. Ob iskanju lastne logike glasbe v tradicionalnih in sodobnih konceptih Donja Jeka razmišlja tudi o nekoč prisotni ritualni vlogi glasbe.
