Approaching his semi-centenary, Kristóf turns to exploring what it means to grow older in the queer community. Growing up without older role models created a gap that shaped his perspective. In recent years, he has embraced a deeper understanding of the passage of time, which is reflected in his latest batch of songs.
The album was produced by Dutch indie pop musician Stefan Breuer (The World of Dust, Combo Qazam, ex-I am Oak) and contains nine chiseled, catchy songs that reflect both the disco pop of the 80s as the lo-fi indie of this present era. The album features a very diverse palette of sounds, with kalimba ballads and disco funk following one another, without losing the melancholic yet serene thread running through the album.
After a praised career with slowcore pop and chamber ballad band The Unbending Trees (2006-2015), Kristóf Hajós released his first solo record Good Morning, Nothingness in 2022. On this album, Kristóf reconciled with the past and embraced a new life, healed from traumas and turning towards the future. In 2023 he released his second album Geography, which reflected on relocation and the question of identity. The most played song of this album surpassed 100k streams on Spotify.
