Prague’s Ondřej Ládek has risen to prominence by imbuing classical guitar-driven folk and blues with myriad traces of global modern pop, including reggaeton, samba and dancehall. The breadth of his talent is evident in the contrast between the skronking saxophone and brittle breakbeats of “Byznys”, and the gentle piano-shepherded pop rock of “Mýval”. His ballad inclinations manifest on the nakedly vulnerable “Popelka”, underscored by a killer piano melody, while “Anděl” displays his penchant for stripped-down guitar heart-wringers.
