Review by Muddasir Shah

Album Review: Ant Kalno Mūrai by ŽAS – A Lithuanian Pop Gem from 2002 Released in 2002 under the Gubernija label, Ant Kalno Mūrai by ŽAS is one of those albums that sneaks up on you. It’s pure pop but with a quirky twist that feels unmistakably Lithuanian. The album doesn’t try too hard to reinvent the wheel, and honestly, that’s part of its charm. Instead, it delivers three remixes of the titular track—each offering something slightly different for your ears. The standout here? Hands down, the Club Mix. This version grabs you right away with its punchy beats and synth-heavy vibe. You can almost picture yourself in some early 2000s underground club in Vilnius, surrounded by neon lights and people losing themselves on the dance floor. It’s infectious without being overwhelming, the kind of track that makes you wanna move even if you’re just sitting at home. There’s this moment around the two-minute mark where the melody dips before exploding back into full swing—it sticks with you long after the song ends. Another track worth mentioning is the Original Mix (Radio Edit). If the Club Mix is all about energy, this one leans more into nostalgia. It’s softer, cleaner, and lets the vocals shine through. There’s something comforting about how straightforward it feels compared to its flashier counterparts. It reminds me of lazy summer days when Lithuanian radio would play catchy tunes like this on repeat, and you didn’t need anything else to feel good. Now, I’ll admit, having only three tracks might leave some listeners wanting more variety. But there’s also beauty in simplicity. By focusing solely on remixes of "Ant Kalno Mūrai," ŽAS gives us space to fully absorb the essence of the song in different contexts. Whether you’re in party mode or chilling out, they’ve got you covered. Looking back, what strikes me most about this album isn’t just the music itself—it’s how unapologetically of its time it feels. Listening to it now is like flipping through an old photo album; it brings back memories of simpler days when pop music was less about perfection and more about fun. And hey, maybe that’s why it still holds up. Or maybe I’m just a sucker for throwback vibes. Either way, Ant Kalno Mūrai deserves credit for doing exactly what it set out to do: make people smile and dance. Fun fact? I once heard someone say this album should come with a warning label—not because of explicit content, but because once you hear “Ant Kalno Mūrai,” you won’t be able to get it outta your head. Guess what? They weren’t wrong.

Interesting fact about Album

Here’s a fun fact: The album *Ant Kalno Mūrai* by ŽAS is like a time capsule of early 2000s Lithuanian pop. Released in 2002 under the label Gubernija, it features three versions of the same track—each with its own vibe. You’ve got the Club Mix for dancing, the Party Mix for energy, and the Radio Edit for easy listening. It’s fascinating how one song can be reinvented to fit different moods. Lithuania clearly knows how to keep things fresh!
