"II" is the first track we're revealing from "Lachrymorph", a collaborative full-length album by Petar Petkov and Bartosz Borzeszkowski. To be released on tape & digital on November 25 at http://amekcollective.bandcamp.com

To create their first collaborative full-length “Lachrymorph”, guitarist Petar Petkov and drummer Bartosz Borzeszkowski embarked on a journey to the Unknown – both physically and creatively. Having successfully collaborated in the studio (check out “Scape I", released in "Vanishing Standards II"), the artists felt the need to dig deeper in their mutual audial explorations, which curiously enough stem from their quite different musical backgrounds with Petkov coming from the world of classical guitar and Borzeszkowski - from the field of jazz.

In “Lachrymorph”, Petkov and Borzeszkowski don’t hold preliminary discussions to lead the music the desired way, they do not map their explorations but rely on intuition. Creating in a small cottage in the deep forests of Cassubia, Poland, they seem to have not only opened their own worlds to one another's contributions, but have left the door wide open for all that lurked around to further nuance and deepen their sound. Scattered across the pieces are field recordings, captured during the duo’s walks in the surrounding areas, that further flesh out the world surrounding Petkov and Borzeszkowski's creative process.

“Lachrymorph” is a varied listen, more of a collection of musical snapshots than a narrative-driven experience. Some tracks (“I”, “IV”, “VII”) are deep and captivating soundscape works that make you lose a sense of the actual instruments that went into their creation. Others(“V” and “VI”) are more straightforward and act as a sort of wake-up call, not letting you disintegrate entirely in the hazy musical territories of the record. Most of the music, however, inhabits the intriguing zone between these two polarities, neither direct nor surreal, like glimpses from one world to another.

Тэкст песні:

Спі, мой сынку, спі сынок,
Пайшоў коцік на таржок.
Пайшоў коцік на таржок,
Купіў сабе піражок.
Трэба коціка паймаць,
Піражочэк забраць.
А ты, коцік, вурчы, плач,
Мой сыночак будзе спаць.
Мой сыночак будзе спаць,
А я буду калыхаць.
Люлі, люлі, люленькі,
Прылецелі гусенькі,
Селі на варотах,
У чырвоных ботах.
Боты паскідалі,
Самы паўляталі.
Самы паўляталі,
На бабінэ жыто,
На дзедавы каноплі.
