Veres Attila: The Black Maybe

Annyira tetszett az egyik novella, A Borostyán komplex, hogy írtam hozzá egy lemezt. Itt megtalálható minden: a zene, az egyes komplexekhez készült borítók és a videók: https://pornaftermidnight.com. A link valós, ha olvastad a könyvet, tudod, miért :), de ha kétségeid vannak, akkor https://clayfeet.bandcamp.com/

One of the stories inspired me to write a music album. You can find everything under https://pornaftermidnight.com: the music, the artwork and videos for each complex. The link is real, if you have read the book you know why, so don’t be afraid to click , but you can check it here as well: https://clayfeet.bandcamp.com/
