Golden Hour by Julija Zakirova
I would like to express my deep gratitudes to each and everyone who was involved in the birth of this album with every finger tip and your talent. Also, I am grateful to all who has participated financially in creating the Golden Hour, my deep gratitude to the State Culture Capital Foundation (SCCF) as well as to my friends, Vlad, Tatjana and Ernest.
Thank you, Andris Buikis for sharing my musical taste, for your stamina and your talent to feel the music so beautifully! Thank you for listening my notes and being able to bloom them!
Edgars Jass & Kristaps Krievkalns - I'm truly grateful for your contribution, warmth and sincerity.
I would also like to bow down and immensely thank my parents and all the nannies for looking after my son Ildar, while I was working in the studio.
I am deeply grateful to God for giving me this gift to hear and produce music that goes through my core and share that beauty with all the people around the world, warming their hearts and souls! I'm also thankful for all the obsta- cles I encountered and overcame to evoke growth in myself. And so I made it! With all your support, this album is released!
Thank You!
