It was a year of hardships for me. Don’t expect them to go away next year either, but somehow under pressure I’ve yielded more than, probably, ever:

Written in memory of my friend Manticore, who suddenly passed away in late October last year. I knew him for 20 years…

A sort of chronicle of the early days of 2024, preceeding the second ‘anniversary’ of the bloody invasion of Russia into Ukraine. The Russian dictator has brought a curse down upon us, everyone born in Russia. And we failed miserably to remove him.

Released by Neotantra label, ‘Aurntengwl’ is a concept album I started back in 2021. Four tracks had been written this year, however.

Released by Moscow, Russia-based album ‘The Day of Life Forgotten’, ‘Detritus’ is black-sided sun’s most aggressively sounding LP, probably. I decided to offer it to ‘TDoLF’ because it was much more in their format, than that of Neotantra.

I also in the (belated) process of making new sound libraries for various synths. And this is probably going to be the focus of further efforts.

For now there is no music in me left.
