Eclectic but excellent!

(5 out of 5 stars)

"A fierce, sad, playful, intelligent mixture of music. Heavily rooted in Hungarian rhythms and melodies, still containing Croatian, Romanian and Gypsy songs as well, which is only fair, knowing the mix all of central Europe was and still is.
Playing is sharp and uncompromising. No studio tricks here, just pure virtuosity and passion. Jazz elements added too.
It is entertaining and moving, and I keep asking for more. And don't be fooled with the fast rhythms, there is always a sad undertone to this music. Which only adds to the beauty.
(Funny idiosyncrasy: On the front picture is Croatian city of Dubrovnik, and even the title is in Croatian language. Anti lived as a child in Zagreb, Croatia, so I guess this is sort of a homage to it)"
