 Cierne Dni (Black Days)
from YouTube :: Tag // lost
April 16, 2008
Cierne Dvi Featuring the song "Struggle for Pleasure" by Glenn Branca and Wim Mertens. On the night of August 20, 1968, an invasion of 200,000 Warsaw Pact troops turned Czechoslovakia into an armed camp, shattering overnight the democratic hopes aroused by that country's Prague Spring. Massive resistance broke out immediately, as blue-jeaned youth, workers, and intellectuals spilled into the streets, confronting Soviet soldiers and tanks at every turn. Czechoslovak cameramen, shooting undercover and on the run, captured these events on whatever 16mm film they could lay their hands on; their raw footage was subsequently smuggled out of the country by sympathetic tourists, journalists, and diplomats, and assembled by a production team in Paris. The resulting film, combining this guerilla footage with Czechoslovak radio and television broadcasts from the same fateful hours, offers a remarkable cinematic record of the invasion and its aftermath: the spontaneous mobilizations at Wenceslaus Square, street skirmishes in Bratislava, Soviet raids on Czech radio stations, the eerie quiet of a massive general strike, and much more. All copies of the film were inexplicably lost in the early 1970s, however, and it was a faded memory by 1987, when a Philadelphia antique salvager stumbled onto two 16mm film cases at a neighborhood junk mart. Text in this short comes from the actual Czech radio broadcasts during the Soviet invasion.

One of the most beautiful piano pieces you will ever hear, "Close Cover" was first introduced to the American music scene in the Wyndham Hills Music Sampler CD Album; and then again in the "Buddha Bars - Cafe del Mar" CD Series. In August 2007 Mertens signed a contract with EMI Classics for his entire catalog. The label has prepared an ambitious re-release plan of his back-catalog which will start in January 2008. His "oeuvre intégrale" will be made available digitally and worldwide. But first EMI Music Belgium released Mertens' newest (51st) 9-track album "Receptacle" on September 24. For this album Mertens decided to work with an orchestra consisting of only women, 17 in total.
