TO EACH THEIR OWN EMPIRE

“Not Quite Baroque” is the debut album of classical music composer Jēkabs Tutiņš—a monumental, emotionally charged imperial manifesto, where the grandeur of the Baroque era meets the inner sovereignty of the modern individual. This is not music for everyone—it is refined, disciplined, and intolerant of superficiality. It is created for those who refuse to live in mediocrity and already know: they are meant for something more.

Inspired by the Baroque form’s ability to both astonish and command, this album is a musical structure in which each composition becomes a pillar—a load-bearing element in the listener’s inner empire. This music does not speak softly, nor does it beg to be heard—it enters the room with authority. It allows no weakness and offers no comfort—it fortifies. It is not background aesthetic, but a vibration discernible only to those who are conscious of their own worth.

“Not Quite Baroque” does not adapt to the listener—it transforms them.

With respect,

Jēkabs Tutiņš
