MIDI LIDI is an electro-kraut-pop band formed in 2006 and was built up around the backbone of the group „Krásný stěhovák Gerard & sexuální nábytek“. Up until 2011, the band members were Petr Marek (vocals, electronics, keyboards), Markéta Lisá (vocals, electronics, keyboards, saxophone), Prokop Holoubek (vocals, drums, keyboards, clarinet, guitar) and three visual artists, Filip Cenek, Magdalena Hrubá and Jan Šrámek, all of whom were responsible for creating the live visuals, album covers, posters and T-shirts. In 2011, Markéta Lisá decided to take a well-earned break, and a new permanent member Tomino Kelar (drums, keyboards, vocals, ex Mountaineers (Mute records) agreed to join in the mayhem, along with visual artists VJ TEXA and Roman Přikryl. 2007 saw Midi Lidi release their first album „Čekání na robota“ at the Brno based, X production label. The album was nominated for the Czech 2007 Grammy equivalent „Anděl“. With the album's critical success and nation-wide audience appreciation, the band began to tour extensively. In 2009, the band began work on their second release, as well as music for the film Protektor (director: Marek Najbrt). Both albums, „Protektor“ (soundtrack, Negative) and „Hastrmans, Tatrmans & Bubáks“ (Xproduction / Malárie) were released within a month of each other in the autumn of 2009. The „Protektor“ soundtrack was awarded the prestigious „Český lev“ film award, and „Hastrmans, Tatrmans & Bubáks“ was again nominated for the „Anděl“ music award. Having completed their 70-gig „Bubáks“ tour, 2010 saw the band pen music to the theatre performance „Ubu se baví“ (Divadlo Na zábradlí), as well as music to the critically acclaimed documentary film „Český mír“ (directors: Klusák / Remunda) as well as the 3D movie „Heart Beat“ (directed by Jan Němec). The band also performed in the film „Marijiny“ (directed by Alex and Željka Sukovi). Midi Lidi's third release „Operace Kindigo!” was release in the autumn of 2011 (X production) for which they were nominated for the „Apollo“ music award. Midi Lidi are known for their vast touring and appetite for live performances, which are well renowned for their immediate energy. Since the founding of the band, Midi Lidi have played hundreds of concerts in the Czech Republic, the Slovak Republic as well as Poland, Russia, England, Germany and Croatia. The band has quickly established itself as a must see festival band. All current band members are actively involved and respected in various arts within their own country and abroad. On the rapidly growing creative scene in the Czech Republic, Midi Lidi members are respected individually as filmmakers, actors, theatre artists, promoters, visual artists and graphic designers. --------------------------------------------------------- Discography Albums: 2021 - Heal The World, konečně! 2021 - Nikdo se ti nebude smát, když budeš mít lidi rád 2016 - GIVE MASTERPIECE A CHANCE! 2011 - Operace "Kindigo!" 2009 - Hatsrmans, Tatrmans & Bubáks 2007 - Čekání na robota Soundtracks: 2020 - Republika Blaník 2018 - Prezident Blaník 2014 - Kancelář Blaník 2012 - Polski film 2011 - HeartBeat 3D 2010 - Marijiny 2010 - Český mír 2009 - Krajina se zbraní 2009 - Protektor 2009 - Nejlepší playbacková zpěvačka na světě 2007 - Metropolis live Compilations and misc: Demo (2006) Ledy (2008) Pár psů (2008) Inbox (audio i video znělka pořadu TV Óčko 2008) Der Film (znělka festivalu 2009) Co jsem měl dnes k obědu (píseň pro kompilaci For Semafor 2009) Na jih (píseň pro kompilaci Brzo na mě přijde řada 2011) Lékaři bez hranic - Stovka (hudba k TV spotu 2011) Pete Best (píseň pro kompilaci Mňága a Žďorp: Dáreček 2012) Lékaři bez hranic - Světlo (Hudba k TV spotu 2012) Remix: ImiAFan - Toothpaste (Midi Lidi 199 Remix) Peoples - Zrádzam (Midi Lidi remix) Sporto - B&B (Midi Lidi Remix) I love 69 Popgeju - Adam (Midi Lidi Short Twist) Sporto - Sideways (Midi Lidi Ranch Remix) Chumbawamba - El Fusilado (Midi Lidi Remix) DVA - Valz liepaja (Midi Lidi mix) Die Alten Maschinen - To be or not (Midi Lidi Remix) Typ Skrsin - Boty (Midi Lidi "Ale jdem!"
