Sün c´: Súborné dielo
Sün c’ (Aristoteles Ďalekého Východu): Súborné dielo
(preklad zo starovekej čínštiny Marina Čarnogurská)
Slovenské sprístupnenie Súborného diela starovekého čínskeho filozofa Sün c’a, považovaného aj za „Aristotela Ďalekého Východu“, prináša čitateľom odhalenie originálneho etického systému, ktorý ponúka poznanie, že sa ľudská civilizácia môže kultúrne i duchovne sformovať a dlhé tisícročia potom aj fungovať prinajmenej rovnako kvalitne ako naša európska civilizácia, a to pomocou úplne iného vierovyznania i vlastnej svetonázorovej chrbtice. Zároveň mnohé Sün c’ove myšlienky, vyslovené ním pred vyše 2 000 rokmi, sú vysoko nadčasové a stále aktuálne aj pre moderného človeka kdekoľvek na svete a môžu nám možno pomôcť vyriešiť aj mnohé naše súčasné spoločenské problémy a ľudské zlyhania. „Veď niet väčšej veľkosti ľudského ducha, než zdokonaliť sa v naozajstného Človeka a niet väčšieho šťastia pre ľudstvo, než vyvíjať sa bez pohrôm!“ – zdôrazňuje nám Sün c’ už v úvode svojho diela.

Innersphere - In The Shadow Of The Sun CD
KDO: INNERSPHERE je melodic death metalová kapela z Plzně založená na konci roku 2015. Tento kvartet míchá prvky různých metalových i rockových subžánrů s patrnými vlivy progressive, thrash, black nebo doom metalu, přičemž si stále zachovávají agresivní elementy napříč tvorbou. Poslední alba jsou zaměřena na výpravu, atmosféru a ducha skladeb. INNERSPHERE jsou aktivní kapelou hned od první sestavy (2016), kdy objíždějí koncerty nejen v ČR, ale také v Německu, Polsku, Rakousku či na Balkáně. Vydané byly zatím dvě desky nahrávky a nyní přichází třetí řadové album „In The Shadow of the Sun”. Cíl INNERSPHERE byl a je stejný od samotného začátku – tvořit unikátní hudbu, vyvíjet ji i sama sebe.
CO: Třetí album INNERSPHERE se nese ve velmi vážném duchu. Propracované deathové melodie a úderné rytmy doprovází temná poselství korespondující s aktuálním děním ve světě. „In the Shadow of the Sun“ není koncepčním albem, leč mísí se v ní různá témata. Ať jde o určitou formu mytologie, metafor na psychiku člověka či vlastní zážitky, narážky na společnost a lidstvo jako takové. Z té hudební stránky se jedná o poměrně unikátní mix stylů a prvků, které jsme na nahrávce použili. Hudba by v první řadě měla být výpravou skladby, kterou provází a měla by pomoct posluchači se vžít do dané věci, tématu nebo alespoň se nad ní v určitý moment zamyslet. Zároveň jsme chtěli neubírat na říznosti a šťavnatosti hudební stránky. Album má předpoklad oslovit lidi preferující sofistikovanější kompozice, melodiku, co se nebojí se více poslechů a rádi objevují. Na desce je použito větší množství čistých, sborových zpěvů než dříve a je prolnuto doprovodem mellotronu, který má nádherný, archaický zvuk umocňující mystiku a epičnost metalových písní. aAlbum bylo nahráno ve studiu Barn pod taktovkou mistra zvuku Dana Frimla.

The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes
"Everything you would expect from Collins is
here: fraught teenage love; plenty of violence... the themes of
friendship, betrayal, authority and oppression will please and thrill"
The Guardian
"It works beautifully... please don't
make us wait another decade" The Times
Ambition will fuel him.
Competition
will drive him.
But power has its price.
It is the morning of the reaping that will kick off the tenth
annual Hunger Games. In the Capitol, eighteen-year-old Coriolanus
Snow is preparing for his one shot at glory as a mentor in the Games.
The once-mighty house of Snow has fallen on hard times, its
fate hanging on the slender chance that Coriolanus will be able
to outcharm, outwit, and outmaneuvre his fellow students to mentor
the winning tribute.
The odds are against him. He's been given the humiliating assignment
of mentoring the female tribute from District 12, the lowest
of the low. Their fates are now completely intertwined - ; every
choice Coriolanus makes could lead to favour or failure, triumph
or ruin. Inside the arena, it will be a fight to the death. Outside
the arena, Coriolanus starts to feel for his doomed tribute...
and must weigh his need to follow the rules against his desire
to survive no matter what it takes.
