Kuolema by TANGERINECAT
The new album “Kuolema” from DIY multi-instrumentalist duet Dark Patrick was recorded and engineered entirely by themselves in their own home studio. The recording features hurdy-gurdy, bandura, duda, wooden and brass whistles, harmonicas, a “Technics Digital 10” electric piano from 1984, synthesizer, and an old field recording made by Dark Patrick of church bells ringing “George’s chimes” (the same George that killed the dragon). All lyrics by Dark Patrick, except for those borrowed from our friends, who are, the writer Alexey Shurov (chorus of “Kuolema”), poet Alla Gorbunova (“How the animals bury the hunter”) and philosopher E.F. Mukhina (“Any wall is a door”). Cover photo by Yana Fialkova. Any resemblance to real people, alive or dead, is entirely coincidental.
Новый альбом "Kuolema" DIY дуэта мультиинструменталистов "Dark Patrick" записан в домашних условиях, исключительно собственными усилиями музыкантов. При записи альбома использовались такие музыкальные инструменты как колесная лира, старосветская бандура, дуда, деревянные и латунные народные флейты, губная гармоника, электропианино «Technics - Digital 10» 1984-го года рождения, синтезатор, а также старые секретные полевые записи "Dark Patrick" Георгиевского (да-да, тот самый Георгий, который, согласно мифу, убивает дракона) колокольного звона. Тексты написаны "Dark Patrick", а также позаимствованы у друзей - писателя Алексея Щурова («Kuolema» - припев), поэтессы Аллы Горбуновой («How the animals bury the hunter») и философа Елены Фридриховны Мухиной («Any wall is a door»).

The duo conveys a strong anti-war, anti-fascist, and anti-ecocide message, where the hauntingly intimate allure of dark jazz a cappella coexist with the fierce energy of hammering industrial electronic beats and poignant spoken word.
