Back in 2004, when I was starting my musical path, I was also part of the literature community in Lviv. It was the time of regular meetings of the Poetry Cafe KABINET, and Lviv Book Forum Festival. Nazar Honchar - conceptual poet and urban philosopher was also a part of that community. I was too small, as I was considering myself back then, to make some projects with him, but I was shure, that I would make a project with him.
Nazar Honchar died in 2009, I think it was the first loss in my life. I also consider that time as the beginning of the end of life as it was. From today's perspective it is clear that all those losses lead us, Ukrainians where we are today in 2023.

This album is me trying to fake what is not possible, to collaborate with Nazar Honchar and Ihor Rymaruk, who died one year earlier - in 2008.
But despite the background it is not so dark and sad, it is deep and conceptual, as it should be. And it is retrospective, as the oldest track comes from 2017.

Traditionally I have been using audio recordings made by Andriy Izdryk and Yuri Kucheriavyi as part of the Zhyvi Holosy project, supported by Old Lviv DZYGA.

This album is considered as the 2CD Experimental Audio Poetry Suite release. So be aware, that tracks 01-13 are the first one entity, and 14-27 - are the second one.
