On the exceptional album, fans will find 17 duets with sixteen performers, with Hana Hegerová, Milan Lasic, Iva Bittová, Katarína Knechtová, Tereza Kerndlová, Emma Smetana, Sima Martausová, Silvia Sliva, Majko Spirit or Fragile. There are two completely new songs – duets with by rapper Lyrik and Dara Rollins. PR manager Nora Krchňáková informed TASR about it.
Singer, composer and lyricist Richard Müller has been on the music scene for 40 years. He started his career in 1984 and has been successfully creating, recording and performing since then. Now he is releasing a balance album, Duety.
“It’s a compilation of my duets that I’ve recorded throughout my career. It starts with a song I recorded in 1988 and ends with songs from 2024. When I came up with this project, I couldn’t imagine how all the songs would work together, it was a risk. I am very satisfied with the result, I like this selection, all the songs fit together nicely,” the singer describes the creation of the album.
In addition to the well-known duets, he also included two completely new songs on the album. The first novelty is a duet with the rapper Lyrik Tlaková niž 2. “The song was produced by my colleague and friend Henrich Leško. It is actually the second part of the composition Tlaková niž, which the rapper Lyrik sings with me. I really like this rapper. I especially appreciate that in his he does not scold the creation. He brought an interesting contribution to the song, it was a very friendly collaboration in every aspect.” stated Müller.
The last song on the album and the second novelty is a remake of the song Kaču zametú, originally sung by Marika Gombitová and Janko Lehotský. Now it combines the voices of Richard Müller and Dara Rolins. A new clip was also created for the news, in which Dominika Call and Tomy Kotty starred. The camera was handled by Adam Lapšanský and Pierre Lexis, who also directed the clip.
“Dara and I know each other, we are colleagues from the industry, and I approached her remotely because she was away. But when I wrote to her asking if we would sing the song When they sweep together, I got an immediate reply that she really liked this song and that she knew it well. She recorded it in Prague and sent the recording to Creative Music House to Peter Graus. I subsequently sang the composition in Bratislava, so we haven’t even met,” said Richard Müller.
