Karel Havlíček is a Czech music composer and multi-instrumentalist. Based in Prague and Los Angeles. The solo album SPOKEN is the result of the most profound thoughts, emotions, and stories, reflecting Karel's life and experiences from two completely different parts of the world. It further depicts a deep connection he has with his twin Maxim, who has been living in L.A. for the last 20 years and, as a painter, has also, in some ways, inspired Karel's music. Thanks to the bond and artistic intertwine they share, Karel has learned the nuances of communication between music and visual art, and it helped him develop his musical journey. Although Karel has many years of experience as a composer in film and television series production, this is his debut solo album. After all, film music composition is very present on his first solo album. With its melody and character, it can resemble the compositional works of Max Richter, Ólafur Arnalds, or Federico Albanese. The piano is Karel's primary instrument of expression. Strings and sensitively embedded wind instruments accompany it. Spoken offers 17 songs that work together as one phase of his life.

We are launching live sessions at Kabelovna Studios. For the kick-off recording, I picked one of my originals, Above Ground. We used the classic recording setup utilizing two Neumann U87 microphones placed over the soundboard. Thank you PETROF for providing us with one of your grand pianos.

The composer, producer, and DJ Karel Havlíček presented the new songs from his upcoming electronic dance-music album at a unique event in Prague, Czech Republic. This latest release offers another genre of music that strongly resonates with the author. The importance of movement reflects the creative process of music writing and the shapes of Frank Gehry's iconic buildings; the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles and the Dancing House in Prague. A single performance in the dome of the Dancing House on Smetana's embankment was recorded on video by Jan Strach in the middle of this year's summer. Karel played his songs live during the evening's magic hour. At the end of his DJ set, he offered his favorite songs played against the backdrop of a sunset over the city of Prague. Karel Havlíček will be releasing an electronic music album next year, and he'll be playing it live with drummer Maurice Salmin throughout many European capitals and Los Angeles. Skladatel, producent a dj Karel Havlíček představil nové skladby z připravovaného alba. Tentokrát jde o elektronické, taneční nahrávky. Nabízí tak další polohu hudby, která s ním silně rezonuje. Význam pohybu odráží nejen tvůrčí proces, ale i ikonické budovy architekta Franka Gehryho, které v L.A. zdobí Walt Disney Concert Hall a v Praze Tančící dům. Právě na střeše resp. v kopuli budovy na Smetanově nábřeží se uprostřed léta odehrála jedinečná událost, kterou na video zaznamenal Jan Strach. Během magické hodiny zahrál živě své vlastní skladby. Na konci svého setu nabídl s kulisou noční Prahy svou oblíbenou selekci skladeb v rámci dj setu. Elektronické album vydá Karel Havlíček příští rok a představí ho živě s bubeníkem Mauricem Salminem v evropských metropolích i Los Angeles.

"The painful things aren't easy to discuss... ...and so I wrote then I sang..." I would hold you, so I cant bring that time back But I’ll never forget about you There was a time You really made me cry I would hold you so, I would hold you, so Big dreams, such a fullness of life Frail and innocent Holy water, hellfire So much higher I couldn’t hold your hand Depths of oceans Such a full existence... I would hold you I would hold you, so I was down in the deep You're somewhere up in the sky Up in the sky I would hold your hand, I would hold you tight. You were more than ticking sound More than heart beat to me The highest of love So deep is the ocean more than ticking sound to me More than heart The highest of love So deep is the ocean More than ticking sound More than heart beat to me The highest of love So deep is the ocean More than ticking sound, more than ticking sound to me, more than ticking sound, more than ticking sound.....in me!
