about

On November 1, Koloah will release a new EP in collaboration with composer and trumpeter Sebastian Studnitzky on the Salon Imaginalis label.

"Earlier, I think of home as a comfortable place where your tools and cat are. But now, I see it differently: home for me is the city where I grew up; the familiar smell of home when you enter for the first time after a long travelling; the close people and relatives next to you. It's not anymore about comfort or peace, but blood connection.

This year, for the first time, I am alone on my birthday: in an unknown city, without relatives, friends or a cat, and I don't want to celebrate at all."

This release emerged as the experience of the last months Koloah spent at residencies, festivals, conferences and film screenings. At one of them, he met the composer, trumpeter and Xjazz festival director Sebastian Studnitzky, with whom they teamed up to work on an EP. The album continues the philosophical musings on the search for self that Koloah began in previous recognizable works like “Vacuus, Verus, Victoria”, “Serenity” and “Salon Imaginalis”.

"These albums are like serifs on the heart, which sometimes hurt to listen to. Working on music helps me overcome pain, anxiety, and worries. I hope that after listening, you will also be able to immerse yourself and maybe get a little closer to the answer "Who am I".

Cover photo — generated by artificial intelligence. That is an empty imaginary city, an image of how Koloah feels in every new place he visits.

Special thanks to Music Export Ukraine for supporting the project, Nastia Pokaz and the Xjazz festival, which raise money for Ukrainian foundations, promote independent musicians and popularize Ukrainian contemporary music in Europe. And also to the Ukrainian army, who every day risk their lives to protect ours.
