The visceral vocals of Svetlana Spaji\u0107 (Marina Abramovic, Robert Wilson, Antony and the Johnsons, Lenhard Tapes) are both rooted and deeply interpretive. In turn, drummer Andi Stecher (STECHER, Billy Bultheel, Orchestre Les Mangelepa) and Guido M\u00f6bius on bass and electronics employ sonic strategies that steer the songs in unpredictable directions. Tapping into minimalism, noise and the rich singing tradition of the Balkans, they create something radical, and entirely their own.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p>This performance is supported by <a href=\"https:\/\/upbeat-platform.eu\/\">UPBEAT<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-9283 \" src=\"https:\/\/ment.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/upbeat_logo_A_RGB_black-e1768469742176.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"204\" height=\"69\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ment.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/upbeat_logo_A_RGB_black-e1768469742176.png 1182w, https:\/\/ment.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/upbeat_logo_A_RGB_black-e1768469742176-872x294.png 872w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 204px) 100vw, 204px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-9290\" src=\"https:\/\/ment.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/EN-Co-funded-by-the-EU_BLACK-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"288\" height=\"60\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ment.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/EN-Co-funded-by-the-EU_BLACK-1.png 1023w, https:\/\/ment.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/EN-Co-funded-by-the-EU_BLACK-1-872x182.png 872w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 288px) 100vw, 288px\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":6794,"parent":0,"template":"","country":[175,112,119],"genre":[31,55,43,120],"location":[673],"class_list":["post-6517","artist","type-artist","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","genre-experimental","genre-folk","genre-kraut","genre-world-2"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ment.si\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artist\/6517","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ment.si\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artist"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ment.si\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/artist"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ment.si\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/11"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ment.si\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6794"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ment.si\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6517"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"country","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ment.si\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/country?post=6517"},{"taxonomy":"genre","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ment.si\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/genre?post=6517"},{"taxonomy":"location","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ment.si\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/location?post=6517"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
