OBJECT:PARADISE Vol. II
OBJECT:PARADISE Vol. II is the audio core of that same Žižkov moment. Recorded in 2021 during the happenings and studio sessions captured in OBJECT:PRAHA II, the album tries to press a living event onto wax.
Seven improvised compositions—shaped by more than twenty Prague-based artists—move through free jazz, punk, street noise, and multilingual spoken word. Turkish, Czech, English and other languages overlap; homemade instruments sit next to saxophone, drum kit, and tank drum.
True to the OBJECT:PARADISE manifesto, Vol. II treats poetry as a collective experience & situation rather than a finished text. It rebuilds the “dialogues of noise” that were muted by the Covid-19 pandemic and asks the listener to step into the room as another participant, not a distant observer.
The album was released at the OBJECT:PARADISE : Thought & Beat event, January 28, 2022)
