Are you the real owner of your existence? The last light in the universe went out on the coast of a metallic cliff where no one could pass. At that moment, a water droplet fell from the most distant stars to the earth. There was a story in this water drop that no one knew. The shadows of twilight deepened as the story grew into a cold, steady rain. Indolently shades of silver crept onto the mountainside and the water formed a mirror, turning the stars into a crown. Obliviously, your essence is s…

This album was inspired by some of my short trips, incursions to the lake Teletskoye (Altyn Kӧl - Golden Lake) in the Altai Mountains. Of all the indescribable beauty, what impressed me most was a fog flowing with streams down the wooded hills and cloaking the water glaze like a shroud.Foggy sunrises over the lake were not less (and perhaps more) magical than the twilight. The oriflamme of the day already made themselves felt, but the mind was still on the whirlwind sidelines and out of the vani…
