DRIEZHAS - Tolumoje
(“Far Off”) (CD and instant download)
This album by "Driezhas" project took a long time to mature. Ten compositions contained in this emotional album help the listener to escape the daily routine. One experiences deep feelings while being submerged into unseen fantasies. Thus the name of the album – "Tolumoje" ("Far Off'). The ideal is reinforced by the writing in Braile alphabet that is printed on the cover: "So far that one cannot see". The artist witholds other ciphers, thus leaving room for listener's imagination – let each listener find his or her own meanings.
