First Interview!
Hey everyone out there, I have had two interviews so far! They happened on Saturday at a well-known music and culture venue in Zizkov called Palac Akropolis.
Here it is!
I interviewed Syncro who has been in the Czech reggae scene for about 12 yrs. I was also able to talk to his friend and fellow musical collaborator, Mighty Lemon.
I was able to get an older, but still relevant and awesome, perspective on how the Czech reggae scene has developed and evolved. I feel like I learned a lot from them. From their point of view, they thought that the Czech reggae scene was going to boom! a few years ago, but instead realized that it is growing out of fashion. Why is that??
The concert they had after was more enjoyable than the interview haha, just kidding. It was a different type of fun. I was pretty impressed by the music, I thought it was great : danceable and enjoyable. I think that Founder’s parties could use their flavor…
Just before I left, I was able to snap this photo:

If you guys can, you should check out their website…
As promised, I looked at more than Czech reggae since we last spoke. I was not able to check out the countryside but I did manage to enjoy traditional Czech food.
Brambory (potatoes), duck, and red sauerkraut + traditional Czech drink ;D
Needless to say, it was delicious! I mean, it was really filling but all the flavors went really well together.
I have four tentative interviews this week with band members and producers, hopefully those will go well too!
As Maris reminded me anthro research is more than interviews, so I need to start observing different spots in Prague. I will probably start that this week too.
I will write more soon!
