About Us

Darla Smoking is a Slovenian duo of crazed cats, Brgs and Nac, who seriously shook the Slovenian grounds with the release of “Big Bug” on Kapa Records in 2017. Darla mixes various influences and sounds, including field recordings from various parts of the world, which Nac then carefully electronically processes. Brgs on the other hand provides a constant drum drive, combined with extensive use of modular synthesizers. Their sound is therefore extremely multifaceted, with the most dominant elements of world or ethno music, dub and psychedelia, but their music reaches and goes far beyond just these genres.

After passing the bless on latest album, in 2019 Darla Smoking presened their new album “Extinct”, dedicated to all the wanishing live on our planet. “Extinct” will try to awake and remind again that the battles against extinction from some decades ago are still there and haven’t been getting any attention and help in solving the situations. We still have Native Americans without their prairie, Tibetian people being forced to become Chinese, Maori and Aborigini tribes drowning in the big city’s slums, massacre in Amazonia and the last sheppard in Bulgaria who is being sucked into globalisation. It goes all the way to the plastic soundscape under the Arctic sea. All in all the new album will spit out the dying screams and helpless anger while we all quietly watch the world blow in our faces. Extinct is the new dead.

Kada govorimo o zvučnom protestu i aktivizmu – drugi album slovenačkog dvojca Darla Smoking “Extinct” je verovatno najnepomirljiviji (a i najrokerskiji) album u ovoj niši iz prošle godine. Multi-kulti paleta sa prethodnika “Big Bug” preneta je i na ovo izdanje, ali se na njemu umesto vedrijeg futurističkog inkorporisanja panetničkih halucinacija u digitalnom, post-truth dobu nižu slike (prirodnih) katastrofa i tribalnih urlika onih kojima je apokalipsa otpočela mnogo pre nizanja tužnih i saosećajnih smajlića na Facebook feedu. Grleni dronovi koji se razležu u ambijentalnoj nadnaravnoj procesiji “Ghosts of the High Plateau” samo su uvod za “Sandcry” u kojoj se mračnije slutnje ovog albuma polako obistinjavaju, paranoično hodajući pustinjolikim okolišom sintizajerskih uboda, ubitačne ritam sekcije i briljantno inkorporisanih vokalnih mantri. “Chainsaw massacre in Amazonia” nas vodi u mračno srce bolsonarovskog tretmana amazonske prašume, dok briljantna Hoodoo spaja industrijalno Scorn-ovsko dub šizenje sa kriptičnim borbenim pokličima, a “Son of a Goat” zvuči kao doom metal verzija iste. Mogu samo da zamislim koliko Darla zvuči moćno sa ovim repertoarom uživo – sve u vezi ovog izdanja je toliko suvereno evokativno i zvučno potentno, te je jedini logični završetak, posle siline svih ovih eksplozivnih emanacija iz nevidljivo-razorenog sveta minijatura “Drowning in my Tears”, nalik molitvi za otvorene rane izeksploatisane i nezbrinute planete koja doslovno plače iz svih svojih pora.
