They only album together was recorded distantly in 2021-2024 and released in 2025 by Ukrainian label система system. "Clarinets of the Moon" is a light, ethereal conversation between reeds and electronic sounds - between artist and landscape. This sonic diary album blends soundscapes, woodwinds, organs, cinematic, and intimate elements.
As the authors themselves describe their album:
'This is music about accepting what is difficult, if not impossible, to take; about regretting what humanity hasn't learned while admiring the resilience of the human spirit; about the deliberate growing of meaning and hope seemingly from nothing; about small joys that heal great sorrows; about searching for strength and inspiration in nature, history and the best of human qualities; about reflection and beauty, and finding a place for these even when everything around you screams that it is not the time for such things'
