Biography Zoltán Lantos' OpenSource
Zoltán Lantos
Lantos’s ensemble, the electronic, groove-centric and simultaneously meditative, highly spiritual OpenSource opened a new chapter in its history. “Lantos's compositions provide a very special merger of jazz rock, modern mainstream and Indian music. Listening to the disc, some inexplicable power passed through my body, my heart and soul, through which I saw images and colours and I felt scents.” wrote Károly Gáspár his quite personal feelings about the album on jazzma.hu.
"The five musicians of OpenSource play flawlessly and easily, the music is like the sounds of nature, when one harks the dawn in a forest. (…) Zoltán Lantos spent more than eight years in India in the eighties and nineties, but his orientalism is far from being assertive, it even can’t be noticed immediately: Indian music melts organically and inherently into his musical mother-tongue." Máté Csabai, Fidelio
Veronika Harcsa
is a uniquely versatile Hungarian singer and songwriter, whose greatest strength lies in a clarity, which enchants and bedazzles instantly. She reaches the listener without any detours, gets by without any mysticisms and her voice knows only the most direct way from her soul into the ear of the listener. Her unmistakable combination of timbre, structure and responsiveness consistently result in this rare trait: clarity.
