I fell in love with Novy Svet the first time I heard them, and again with every subsequent release I came across. They came across my path via CDr swapping over two decades ago, and I had requested some rarities (aren't they all) from the group Mirror, and I recieved a handful of EPs and an album or two from Novy Svet. While nothing like Mirror, I just knew I was on to something completely unique.
As their Discog's profile correctly states, "The group is neither tied to any musical style nor to any language."
The industrial, cabaret, neofolk, ambient, absolutely bonkers music was so refreshing to me. I spent countless hours and lots of money tracking down their releases. I found such interesting labels like Old Europa Cafe, Klanggalerie, Hau Ruck, Achtung Baby!, Nekofutschata, Punch, Treue Um Treue/Reue Um Reue.
The greatest is still their collaboration with martial pop artist Derniere Volonte (both sides of that 7" featured here). I've included appearances by J. Weber (half of Novy Svet with Frl. Tost) in the groups Mushroom's Patience, Unidad Sasao and O Paradis.
