Hľadám (I'm Looking for) is poetry in song form, and our first release in Slovak, the language Tilly was born into. It's gentle and dreamy but incredibly rich, full of pictures and metaphors and a lot of Tilly's grey-colored heart.
Many of you may never have heard the Slovak language before, though a dear, non-Slovak friend of ours said that even if not French-like at all, the song reminded him of French chansons. And so, this intimate singer-songwriter tune evolves into an almost cinematic feel with an ambient folk side, and it slowly but urgently rolls in to eat you whole.
We purposely went for a very simple, one-take, intimate-feeling video, trying to make you feel like being right there, very close to Tilly, dreaming together in the dark.

The washed-off traces... Hide those who remain... And I'll catch you quietly...
