This year J.A.R. issued their new album Eskalace dobra as mastered by Roman Holý. As part of the tour with the same name they will also be performing in Brno.
After a gap of six years J.A.R. are bringing out a new CD entitled Eskalace dobra. The group continues to move between a range of genres from jazz through pop and funk to electronic music. The ninth studio album Eskalace dobra is a reaction to the current political situation though lyrics by Ota Klempíř, Dan Bárta and Michael Viktořík. The single from the new album Zhublas is accompanied by a video directed by Zdeněk Suchý.
J.A.R. have been part of the domestic music scene already for 28 years. Today’s line-up of J.A.R. does not work like a traditional group, but rather as an occasional get together of rappers, jazz musicians and producers. The Jednotka Akademického Rapu (or Jaromír and Radomír) was founded symbolically on 17 November 1989 by the composer Roman Holý and the duo of “academic rappers” Oto Klempíř and Michael Viktořík. Since that time they have brought out nine standard albums together. Since the third album Mein Kampfunk (1997) a constant member of the group has been Dan Bárta and the hits Maksimig and Hnědojed are forever etched into the memories of their fans. Since the fourth album Nervák (2002) the group has taken on its current definitive form with Roman Holý, Michael Viktořík, Oto Klempíř, Dan Bárta, Pavel Zbořil, Robert Balzar, Mirek Chyška, Filip Jelínek, Kaspar and Kop.
The Brno concert has been announced for 4 November from 7 p.m. in Brno’s Fléda club.
