Josefina Dusk Transforms feelings of anxiety, panic and l'appel du vide into playfully dystopian, dense, techno pop with a manic fairy energy. Also suitable for damp cave parties and baroque stages. Josefina Dusk creates cheeky sci-fi fetish synth pop that contemplates the beauty and terror of existence itself. Josefina Dušková began creating music primarily out of a desire to perform — which is evident not only in her energetic concert show full of striking costumes, makeup and dance, but also in the music itself. She began composing in London, where she spent three years after graduating. However, during the pandemic, she returned to her native Tábor, where she took care of animals and neighbors, planted trees and at the same time devoted herself fully to creating experimental electronics. As a trained actress, she likes to play with words and often sings in a made-up language. Johuš Matuš Johana Novotná is a versatile audiovisual artist and musician, she studied photography at FAMU and multimedia at AVU. She collaborated on music videos for Ventolin (Disco Science) or Midi Lidi (Prosím kam), Koňe a Prase (Stěhovák). She composes film music, shoots her own films. She describes her electronic songwriting genre as “rural pop”. She has performed with Midi Lidi, Bert & Friends, toured with Ventolin, and has also played a number of solo concerts. In 2016, she released her debut album Rural pop (2016), followed by the album Čus držky (2019), the singles Myšš (2021), Zpívají (2022, feat. Albert Romanutti / Bert & Friends) and in 2025, her latest album V strašidilenný kaši (2025). Her poetics, sense of humor and irony, work with visuals, DIY approach and undisguised outsiderism place her very close to artists such as Ventolin, Midi Lidi, Bert & Friends, Čoko Voko or DVA.
