continuation of former Jasna Paka band, post-punk music with other influences (ska), more calm and melodic compared to the original Jasna Paka, yet enough energy and straightforwardess remained. After 1990 both Jasna Paka and Hudba Praha are active, though it is more two different names for the same or very similar group of musicians. In spite of several long breaks and personal changes, the band was activeTill Michal Ambroz's death in 2022. About 2010 a part of former members formed an offspring called Hudba Praha Band.
