SHORT STORY: Frank Borjak 'BRIXTON TRAX' IS OUT!
LONG STORY: Please stop doom scrolling and hear me out.
SO MANY WONDERFUL PEOPLE WERE INVOLVED IN THIS ALBUM
I want to thank you all, but I might forget to mention some of you and if I do I apologize.
First of all, this album would never have happened if it wasn't for my family.
Secondly, it wouldn't have happened if Gilly hadn't invited me to play in Brixton, London.
I also want to thank Stefan St. Éphan for advice and assistance, Kai Wu for assistance on site, Seán Cooper and Matt Green and the AudioVoid crew, Sven, David, Riarëh V Devillé, Jack Howard and everyone I met at the club in Brixton.
A special thank you to Simon Wiltshire for coming down to the club. Was an honour to have a few words with you and properly thank you for the support throughout the years.
Liviana, Robert and Aaron for listening and feedback.
Björn / Laucritz Rollet for famous words "f**k off - you got this".
A special thank you to Kuvera for patience, support, professionalism and powerful mastering.
WHAT IS THIS ALBUM?
It is a cry for help and a call to arms. A trap and an escape. Reality and fiction.
IT IS MY COMEBACK AND MY EXIT.
My roots are in early hardcore and gabber, but I am influenced by everything I hear, see, experience and this album is an attempt to add vocals, messages, feelings, melodic elements, nordic melancholy to the strict, minimalistic, desolate world of Doomcore - the genre that has been my home ever since Robert and I released X-Core #2 under the Underground Music umbrella in the year 2000.
This album sounds like everything I am inspired by - and at the same time like nothing else.
If you've read this far I SALUTE YOU - and ask kindly that you share my music if you like it, and that you consider supporting me by buying the release on Bandcamp or donating to my gofundme.
SOME FINAL WORDS
I've come this far because I love what I do and because I have family and friends that support me. This is as much your doing as it is mine.
THANK YOU and hope you all enjoy my new album BRIXTON TRAX.
STAY TUNED, I AM NOT DONE YET - FAR FROM IT.
FRANK IS BACK
