Slovak recording artist Marika Gombitová entered the music industry in 1975 by recording promotional compositions entitled "Karta" and "Nájdem hviezdu" for SRo Košice. Prior to that, she performed with local bands such as Profily (1971–73) and the orchestras of Juraj Szabadoš, respectively of Július Olajoš (1974–75). Following an offer to become a member of Ján Lehotský's ensemble, she joined Modus in 1976 as their only female vocalist. Simultaneously with staging for the group, Gombitová recorded a number of tracks as soloist; among others also "Čo má rieka" and "Deň ako z pohľadnice". Eventually, "Boľavé námestie" was released as her own debut single issued on OPUS Records in 1977.^[1]

Her solo breakthrough came along with the second single release "Študentská láska." The song won two awards at the Bratislavská lýra,^[2] being classified as the most selling SP in Slovakia in July 1978.^[3] By the end of next year, Gombitová issued a debut album called Dievča do dažďa (1979), of which total sale surpassed 200,000 copies.^[4] In addition, the set would be ranked in a critics' survey published by Nový čas as the 20th Best Slovak Album of All Time.^[5] Furthermore, the album's lead single "Vyznanie," received several music awards, including a prize at the 4th Intervision Song Festival in Sopot, Poland in 1980.^[6] Regrettably on December 1, 1980, shortly before launching her second set Môj malý príbeh, singer sustained serious injuries upon her return from a concert. After her partial recovery, she successfully returned to the studios and continued in publishing a new material; though, as a physically disabled artist since 1981.^[7]

Until now, Gombitová released ten studio albums, including one double set — Dievča do dažďa (1979), Môj malý príbeh (1981), Slnečný kalendár (1982), Mince na dne fontán (1983), Marika №5 (1984), Voľné miesto v srdci (1986), Ateliér duše (1987), Kam idú ľudia? (1990) and Zostaň (1994). Each of them on OPUS, with exception of her final record issued by H&V Jumbo Records. Along with Modus, Gombitová recorded four album releases — Modus (1979), Balíček snov (1980), 99 zápaliek (1981) and Záhradná kaviareň (1983). She also participated on the Collegium Musicum's art rock project On a Ona (1979), as well as contributed to three original soundtracks — Smoliari (1979), Neberte nám princeznú (1980) and Tisícročná včela (1983). Her retrospective compilations consist of nine collections, of which two are double sets — Moje najmilšie (1985), Polnočné otázky: 16 Naj 1984–1993 (1993), The Best of the Best (1998), Gold (2005), Vyznanie (2007), Na Bratislavskej Lýre (2008) and Duetá (2010). Apart from four export releases, her discography also features EP Slávnosť úprimných slov (1987), video album Ateliér duše (1987), and twenty-six singles in total.^[8][9]

	"Rýchly spád" One of the singer's earliest and unreleased songs by now, co-written by Peter Nagy.
