"On The Drone Of Solitude" is a collection of sonic narratives whispered through the gentle hiss of vintage tape, evoking solitary moments experienced during travels. From the labyrinthine backstreets of ancient Tunis to the haunting, long-forgotten sanatoriums of post-Soviet Georgia, from the tranquil serenity of a Singaporean airport to the bustling, chaotic streets of Ho Chi Minh, and to the serene heights of Azorean mountain lakes, from the grandeur of Kosovo's towering peaks to the delicate caress of my hand drum's mellowness, this album weaves a tapestry of sonic solace and soulful connection.
These sonic vignettes emphasize the transformation of landscapes into cherished memories, in places where people chose solitude or were compelled to embrace it. They serve as sonic meditations on solitude, portraying a single person confronting the grandeur of nature or the lonely moments experienced in bustling but careless urban environments.
