Experimental
The creativity appears as impulsive, free from the constraints of genre, and most definitely driven by a passion for the strange & the unpredictable.
These snippets of ambiance & emotion are enough to inspire the most profound of thoughts. The artistry of this release is deeply interesting.
The titles hold a level of strength. The concept’s are briefly defined, the rest of the journey is determined by the music & the mind of the listener.
Serge Bulat has an absolute thirst & skill for capturing the perfect sounds for each passing moment during the creative process. Beautifully unique.
