This is a collection of music for the various films and theatre plays by Mirko Krstičević, Croatian and Yugoslavian composer and musician active since 1970s. “All and Nothing at All (Film and Theatre Music 1978 - 1988)” [“Sve i ništa (Filmska i scenska glazba 1978. - 1988.” in Croatian] focuses on his work for the underground and avant-garde cinema from the era: directors Ivan Martinac, Svemir Pavić, Lordan Zafranović, Aleksandar F. Stasenko and Vanča Kljaković are all part of the Split Cinema Club association; their work explores art, death, sexuality and eroticism. Krstičević compositions for various theatre plays are also included. From the original master tapes.
Svemir Pavić’s portrait of surrealist painter Ljuba Popović, made in the same year as its counterpart by Walerian Borowczyk, features scenes form Beaubourg Gallery in Paris and Udo Kier as a guest. Side B of the record is all about theatre: plays by Sam Shepard, Rainer Werner Fassbinder and Jean Giraudoux were all produced in Sarajevo and Split in the 1980s, with the rare electronic takes by Mirko Krstičević and his subtle minimalist soundings of the themes from the Cold War era. This unique and diverse compositions by founder of the rock band Metak and sound studio Tetrapak from Split, are document of the time that is, especially in the closing Chernobyl theme, relevant again.
Composer, musician and musical arranger Mirko Krstičević was born in 1948 in Šibenik. He graduated in music theory at the Pedagogical Academy in Split and then at the Music Academy in Sarajevo. He studied composition with Josip Magdić, Mladen Pozajić and Miroslav Špiler. He is the co-founder of the Tetrapak music studio in Split, where numerous performers and musicians have recorded (Animatori, D'Boys, Haustor, Oliver Mandić, Gibonni, Srđan Marjanović, Stil, Trotakt Projekt and others).
Together with Ranko Boban and Momčilo Popadić, he founded the Metak group in the spring of 1978 in Prigradica on Korčula. In the group, he is the author of songs and lyrics, and he also plays the bass guitar. “Da mi je biti morski pas” is the group’s most successful single, which in 1980 became one of the most played songs on radio and television. Metak performed in Belgrade in front of 70,000 people, and the media declared them the best group along with Macedonian Leb i sol. In compositional work and arrangements for other pop and rock artists, Krstičevic had high commercial success with Tutti Frutti Balkan Band, Biljana Petrović, Seid Memić Vajta, Pepel in kri, Osmi putnik, Oliver Dragojević , Đorđi Peruzović, Henda and others.
Parallel to his pop and rock career, Krstičević composed stage and film music for 45 films, mostly collaborating with the circle of experimental and amateur directors of the Split Cinema Club (Kino klub Split) as well as the rest of the local underground scene. He is the author of stage music for 130 theatre plays, and also records his own compositions in the field of contemporary music. He wrote over 30 works for solo instruments, 4 operas, chamber and symphonic music. He is the winner of numerous awards, lives and works in Split.
