At the end of June, when the holiday by the sea is close, a team from different generations revived the music hit from the recent past entitled – "Zamirisa na More/ A Scent of Sea". At the end of last year, Kalina Batkova, known by her artistic pseudonym K.LINA and the Argirov Brothers remade another music hit from the past - "Got e!/ It’s Cool". It was so successful that they have apparently decided to repeat the collaboration. It turns out that "Zamirisa no More" is the first attempt at a collaboration between K.LINA and the Argirov Brothers. Kalina Batkova has more:


''We did the song last summer. We started to work on the piece at the end of the summer, in August, but it was already a bit late. I even had several versions of the lyrics because this song is a big responsibility. I decided to write a more metaphorical, poetic text – as if I were having a conversation with the sea. The Argirov Brothers recorded new vocals – we didn’t use the old ones. I am very happy that they sang my new lyrics''. 

The idea for the joint project came from K.LINA’s friend, Rumen Rusev, who is also the director of both music videos. After attending a major concert by the Argirov Brothers last summer, marking their return to the Bulgarian stage, K.LINA and Rumen were deeply impressed by the energy of the twins and the energy of their audience. K.LINA mustered the courage to meet with them, share her songs and propose a collaboration. "They are very open-minded. Very few Bulgarian pop artists would so readily share their biggest hits", said Kalina.


New lyrics and music by K.LINA and new arrangement by Elya Zambolin are added to the chorus of the original version of the song from 1989 (music Stefan Dimitrov, lyrics- Georgi Borisov). 

Elya Zambolin is an Italian musician with whom K.LINA has been working on her latest songs. She is even preparing a mini album with him which is expected to be released this fall.

K.LINA and the Argirov Brothers unanimously state that the most important message behind the beautiful music video is the cause they support: “We want to show Bulgarians that our Black Sea coast is wonderful and worth visiting! We definitely need to rekindle people's love for our native salty waves and golden beaches.”
