A key moment of Longital's new work is the collaboration with producer, sound artist and performer Andrej Bak from London, who has Slovak roots and name, but does not speak Slovak.
Longitudinal are guitarist Daniel Salontay and bassist/singer Shina. They have hundreds of concerts all over the world. They have recorded 12 albums, and they see music as their mission: Dano takes care of concerts, managing the band and, most recently, teaching the sublime truths about the guitar, Shina devotes himself to the well-established publishing house Slnko Records and spends his rare free time in silence and in the garden, which is inexhaustible a source of inspiration for her personal poems, which later become song lyrics.
A key moment of Longital's new work is the collaboration with producer, sound artist and performer Andrej Bak from London, who does not speak Slovak, but has Slovak roots and a name. The trio's friendship began in 2008, when Andrej toured around the world with the singer Nicolette from the group Massive Attack and met Dan and Shina in Slovakia. Shortly after, he created a remix of the song Konečne si letel, which was released on the remix album Longital Revoyaged in 2009 and was also presented in a joint live performance at the Wilsonic festival in the same year.
Andrej Bako is a London-based sound artist who uses field recordings and modular electronics to create compositions and soundscapes for site specific installations and improvised performances. He has performed internationally in bands such as Nicolette (singer from Massive Attack), Loop Ellington, created sound installations for Natural History Museum London, Barbican London, Hayward Gallery's Art Night and The Light Festival Iceland.
