about

The album "2000" of the four-piece band TokDat recorded in the musty cellars of the famous Karlín rehearsal room, where a temporary recording studio was built with the help of friendship and money. The tuning of the dilapidated piano took over four hours, and when the e2 key is pressed, a kind of thump sounds (for a clear hearing, for example, at 5:37 of the song Thumos). The microphone in the kick was inadvertently adjusted in the hangover haze so that it hit the membrane gently with each blow, giving the drum a completely unique touch of slapping bass (especially evident, for example, at the beginning of the song Šmidlidisk when listening with headphones). Furthermore, it turned out that the custom-built guitar receives some of electricity power when being connected to the combo, thus supplying the entire board with the heat of subliminal electrical noise. Unfortunately, the double bass did not show any curious phenomenon, and therefore contributes to the unique sound of the record the least. During the recording of the last song, the drummer showed symptoms of advanced stage of COVID-19 disease, which after a subsequent test turned out to be a fact - after successfully recording the album, the band enjoyed a well-deserved vacation in the form of state-sanctioned quarantine.
