LUCIA NIMCOVA & SHOLTO DOBIE : DILO [mappa]
€45.00
Catalogue : mappa / MAP025
Format : LP, Album, Gatefold
Condition : New
Country : Slovakia
Released : 2021
Genre : Folk, World
DILO is named after an important independent Ukrainian daily newspaper that was shut down when the Red Army entered Lviv in 1939. The four long tracks on DILO blur field recordings with song; an unpolished, privileged glimpse into a private world. We hear dogs barking and insects buzzing in the summer heat, then a blast of hurdy gurdy or violin will drift in, or a plaintive song soars softly over the rural background noise, with casually harrowing lyrics about a cuckoo, “lifeless in a world of misery”, as translated in the album’s booklet.
