about

Chronologicky řazená kompilace klidné hudby
průkopníka české ambientní scény.

Veterán alternativní scény Pavel Richter prošel řadou výrazných uskupení, ať už to byli v 80. letech Švehlík, Dunaj s Ivou Bittovou, trio Janota–Fidler–Richter, či později Guru Band s Janou Koubkovou a Alanem Vitoušem. Skoro zapomenut je dnes projekt Amalgam, propagátora new age Vlastimila Marka z konce 70. let, ale pro talentovaného kytaristu to byl právě ten pomyslný odrazový můstek. Po následných experimentech s magnetofony a scénickou hudbou pro divadlo Kolotoč zakládá v roce 1986 skupinu Richter Band, který produkuje sebevědomou, světově srovnatelnou hudbu založenou na repetici a ambientních náladách.

Průkopník ambientu i pozoruhodný studiový mág Richter, pro nějž je kytara jen jedním z mnoha vyjadřovacích prostředků, v poslední době vystupuje zejména v „rodinné hudební firmě“ se synem Jonášem, jednoduše nazvané Richter & syn. Spolu mají za sebou již šest studiových alb a na leden 2020 připravují album sedmé. Pavel Richter také stále aktivně koncertuje. Jako host doprovází trio M/Á/J, jemuž letos produkoval desku První květy a aktuálně připravuje 30. výročí od vydání debutové desky Richter Bandu (Richter Band, 1990, Rachot). K tomuto jubileu vzkřísil opět skupinu dohromady ve složení Pavel Richter – kytary, elektronika, Jonáš Richter – elektronika, sampling, Bharata Rajnošek – dechové nástroje. Společně představí skladby z první desky upravené v moderním hávu v projektu nazvaném Smetana Electric na mezinárodním festivalu Space X 2020 v pražském divadle X10.
