Artist: Čao Portorož
Album: POP
The mischievous Ljubljana-based quartet presents their third full-length “POP”, out now on KAPA Records. The band’s wild mix of rock & roll and sweet indie rock has been sprinkled with electronic sounds in the form of a pounding rhythm machine and contagious synth lines. Their veins are still filled with 90s alternative rock, though. Using typical multilingual shout outs, Čao Portorož create moments of euphoria. Through its punk attitude, the quartet reaffirms its old-school “Yugo” temperament. From Portorož down the Balkans and beyond – everybody understands what “čao” means.
Čao Portorož are Ivian Kan Mujezinović (bass, synth, vocals), Gregor Andolšek (guitar, bass, vocals), Anže Petrič (guitar) and Aljoša Cetinski (drums). United in 2009 for late-night jam sessions on Fridays, they first performed in local clubs, made a small Slovenian tour with Klubski Maraton by Radio Študent, went abroad and soon felt the need to release the material and show it to a wider audience.
After releasing two self-titled albums, it’s time for “POP”.
The material for the third album was recorded “for real” this time in the Italian Mushroom Studio and Kif Kif.
Žare Pak took over the production and mixing part.
Mastering is by La Source Mastering
Mina Fine / Ee made the beautiful design*.
*POP received a Special Mention by Festival Tresk for the amazing album cover by Mina Fina.
