ENG: Our first album “Nõidus” (Sorcery) is a beautiful overview of our different approaches to music we create. You can find really melodic and melancholic tunes like “Vaeslapse laul”, our biggest hits at dance parties like “Hingesandid”, instrumental pieces like “Flöödilugu” not to mention the booklet with all lyrics and photos. Let us know if you’d love an inscription from all of the band members inside the case!
EST: Album “Nõidus” on hea ülevaade erinevatest lähenemistest muusikale, mida bändina loome. Kogumikult leiad väga meloodilisi ning melanhoolseid lugusid nagu “Vaeslapse laul”, meie suurimaid hitte tantsupõrandal “Hingesandid” ning instrumentaalpalu nagu “Flöödilugu”. Lisaks käib füüsilise albumiga kaasas voldik laulusõnade ning ägeda fotomaterjaliga. Anna märku, kui soovid plaadiümbrisele ka bändiliikmete pühendust ning autogramme.

lyrics
Aeti mu mõtsa, aeti mõtsa ommukult,
varra inne, varra inne valgõt.
Anti mul peiu, anti peiu pikk vits,
kandli ala', kandli ala' karjavits.
Oles mul olnu, oles mul olnu uma imä,
elanü, elanü uma esä.
Andnu mul peiu, andnu peiu piimämuru,
kandli ala', kandli ala' karjamuru
Oles mul olnu, oles mul olnu uma imä,
elanü, elanü uma esä,
Imä an'd liha, imä an'd liha, ütel' luu,
an'd tükü, an'd tükü, ütel' tühä.

Its three members mix Estonian traditional music with
analog synths and make their custom light installations pulsate as one with music.
OOPUS loves traditional and electronic dance music. They combine Estonian bagpipes and runo songs with classic acid synths TR-09 and TB-03 that will take you from techno to acid, from 120bpm to 150bpm and beyond....more

First released 10 years ago, this psych-electronic album has lost none of its charm and inventiveness, serving up dizzying song structures. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 29, 2020
