  “INVISIBLE STORY” on a 10’’ vinyl MINIALBUM. The title refers to the collection of essays by Béla Hamvas (1897-1968) published in 1943. Hamvas was an outstanding Hungarian thinker even in the European context. Due to his anti-materialistic concept Béla Hamvas was deprived by the Communist authorities of publishing his works right after they came to power in 1948. Szemző was especially attracted by the essay Aquarius and incorporated the narration of parts of the text into his seven compositions of the album. Generally speaking the essay reflects the human condition and the lack of spirituality of modern man. It’s worth mentioning here that Szemző has been working with texts and spoken word from the very beginning of his artistic career and as on this album, the narration in Hungarian. His deep mellow voice and seemingly restrained reciting style perfectly matches the timelessness of Hamvas' messages.
  The compositions are relatively short – the longest lasts six and a half minutes – and each piece has its specific instrumentation, although most of the the instruments used are mostly common seen in rock or jazz bands. Szemző, as could be expected by those familiar with his music, avoids any style clichés and uses different formative elements to create a very transparent soundscape which doesn’t interfere in this case with the spoken word, but underlines in a simple way the philosophical gravity of its content.
  Compared to his previous albums the “Invisible Story” offers a different creative approach and thus is quite a unique item in the Fodderbase vinyl collection.
