The Son by David Kollar
I decided to record the album Son in the beginning of this year, when my son David
was waiting for a second surgery. It was very difficult and painful period, which I also took as a challenge to move somewhere else.
I recorded the feelings that were inside me and around me. I wanted to conceive the album differently than I did before.
I used only electric guitar on which I made all the noises and sounds; mandoline,
which I play with bow, Gamelan, a voice of Lenka Dusilová and India Czajkowska.
The compositions are based on improvisations, which I recorded in Warsaw in a studio of Tadeusz Sudnik and later in my studio in Slovakia.
The final material was longer than three hours. From that I chose what is on the album.
David Kollar - guitars, bowed mandoline, effects, gamelan, vocal
Lenka Dusilova - vocals
India CZajkowska - vocals

Kollar treats his music with a deep degree of seriousness and personal involvement, as if each and every one of his projects was not only his proverbial brain child but as if it was his actual offspring. He treats his instrument as a gateway between his complex ideas and their audible representation, the same way a sculptor treats the chisel or a painter the brush."
