Ljubojna Quintet brings a fresh sound of makedo-balkan beat with powerfull and full of emotion music that is boiling from the sunny heart country of the Balkan. Keeping the long music tradition of the famous Kochani Orchestra, Esma Redjepova and Ferus Mustafov it's music is as well passionate and erruptive. Ljubojna's mission is to dissarm the music concepts and make a new expressive conection.
Led by composer and bassist Oliver Josifovski and singer Vera Josifovska Miloshevska, the heart and soul of the band, the album showcases Josifovski's formidable compositional prowess and arranging talent which makes this merging of Macedonian music culture with other sounds and cultures possible. Miloshevska has a one of a kind voice, at once powerful and delicate. Highly emotional, she sings with verve and passion. Her voice is at the heart of the record, but she leaves plenty of space for the band to shine.
For Macedonian world music group Ljubojna, creating boundary-breaking music is a way of life. Over the course of 20 years, it has wilfully broken boundaries and conventions within its entertaining song structures. In doing so, Luboyna has been successfully navigating the musical opposites of composition and improvisation both in the studio and live and has expanded what is generally known as Balkan Music. While its heart and soul are deeply and firmly rooted in Macedonia and its music traditions, the band's musical worldview has always been evidently eclectic. Mac music is the foundation and Luboyna successfully brings a lot of various musics into that foundation. Influences from across the pop, jazz, improv, electronica, and soul realm abound, all held together with unbounded enthusiasm, addictive melodies, and hooks...
