ABOUT LONGITAL
"We had gone a long way before we met, we traveled across the ocean to become a pair, we sacrificed proper jobs to create music, we are changing the inner world, thus changing the world around us. There is no boundary except for the one we have created inside ourselves." *** Daniel and Shina, February 25, 2008
THE STORY
He dreamed a lot * She wrote poetry.
He sharpened his imagination and built aeroplanes and ships * She sang and played piano.
He got a guitar and loved jazz * She ran college radio and played folk.
They both loved music and skiing
He graduated in maths * She graduated in engineering.
He taught computer science and played the blues * She did graphic design and photography
He found some wrecked guitars and rescued them * She left some old friends.
They met and became friends
He went to Cleveland to study jazz * She stayed in Bratislava
He missed her * She missed him
They met again in the US
They fell in love
They returned home
He discovered bow * She got bass guitar
He wrote songs * She wrote songs
They moved to a beautiful place on a hill called Dlhe Diely (Long Yards)
They formed the band Dlhe Diely with some friends
They started their record label Slnko records (www.slnkorecords.sk)
They quit their proper jobs
They recorded few albums and lost few drummers
They discovered electronics and started to use ambient sounds and loops
They discovered that the hill Dlhe diely was previously called Longital
They formed the new band Longital
And finally came the dream of White Tiger telling them the SECRET

Psyek Burn Me / Eirieann ----------------------- Lots of dnb renegades have submerged into deep waters of dubstep. Psyek is one them. "Burn me", a hypnotic synthless percussive track, is fully loaded with heavy repetitive beats and amen breaks. Psychadelic lines of "Eirieann" sound like an 80s Czech sci-fi series soundtrack. Pure dubstep. Heavy beat and heavy bass, nothing else needed.
