Hi friends! It’s Igor. I’m writing this text from Kyiv, Ukraine. 2022 was the hardest year in my life due to the war in Ukraine and due to circumstances in my personal life.

I collected 7 tracks for ‘Differences’ EP. It’s the logical continuation of my previous release on YUKU - "Ranges". This release is about love, family, friends, parting & relationships. It’s about priceless things which we often do not notice, about losing valuable people forever.

It combines sentimental mood and energetic vibes that interchange each other. My personal favorite track ‘Illyah’ was written in December 2022 and it’s dedicated to my friend who was killed by russian troops. He was a musician. Sometimes we met at my studio, we spoke about music, worked together on a few projects together. And then it happened - one day we worked and laughed together and the other day he is gone. Forever.

I hope we can start appreciating the familiar things around us a little more. The air, dear people, family. Those things that makes you happy, that make your life more meaningful.

The cover for this release was created by my friend Mitya Fenechkin and it fully encapsulates the feelings and emotions I was experiencing at the time of writing these tracks.

Thanks to Jef & Ilda for support and professionalism.

Love
Igor
