Short transcript from an interview with him:
- I'm not a religious person. But there is a difference: You can be religious, but not believe. But me, I believe and I'm not religious. I believe in the higher power, in the Creator.. and I thank the Creator, I love the Creator for giving me this gift. The Creator knew exactly what day, what year this day would happen. I didn't know it..

- Laboratorium Pieśni-Sztoj pa moru (Што й па мору)

Laboratorium Pieśni (meaning: Song Laboratory) is the group of female songsters from Tri-City (Poland), which was created in 2013. Using traditional, polyphonic singing they perform songs from all over the world, mainly: Ukraine, Balkans, Poland, Belarus, Georgia, Scandinavia and many other places. They sing a capella as well as with shaman drums and other ethnic instruments (shruti box, kalimba, flute, gong, zaphir and koshi chimes, singing bowls, rattles etc.), creating a new space in a traditional song, adding voice improvisations, inspired by sounds of nature, often intuitive, wild and feminine.
