Bajka is a singer with a distinctive voice that reminds in some ways of Billie Holiday and Erykah Badu. Apart from Radio Citizen she worked with Beanfield (check out the Carl Craig remix), Bonobo and many others.
This record is a dive into the history of Radio Citizen´s early Berlin days and in spite of all the time gone by this album sounds as edgy and fresh as "Berlin Serengeti" and "Hope and Despair" from the years 2006 and 2010.
It combines Downtempo, Jazz, electronic music and Hiphop in an effortless way.
