Innerglow - the rock band, whose music mixes electronic sounds with live instruments, will present a new single "Imaginary Man" (original title "Измислен човек"). It also features Svilen Noev, the well-known frontman of the cult band Ostava. The guys from Innerglow have long been their fans, and when Todor Kovachev (the singer in Innerglow) came up with the idea for the song, they unanimously decided that Svilen's voice would fit perfectly in it, and in turn, he wholeheartedly embraced the idea. 

Innerglow guitarist Petar Zhelev even finds similarities between the two groups – according to him, in the first two albums of Ostava, of which he has been a big fan since childhood, in addition to the guitars, there was also a lot of electronic sound, adding:


"I think it turned out to be a very good combination between the voices of Toshko and Svilen, because they really have completely different timbres, but they complemented each other wonderfully. When I heard it in the studio while we were recording the song with Svilen, I just said to myself – this is it! It sounds the way it should, without any mix, without any processing. I think the end result speaks for itself." 


Innerglow drummer Matey Hristoskov adds: 

"It is exciting to compare two voices, two ideas, to somehow connect them and create a contrast. Contrast is exactly what absorbs you in the song – to constantly have something to take you over, to ‎take you in its grip."‎


‎"Imaginary Man" takes us to Innerglow's second album, which is expected in the autumn. The band members have been working hard on it since the winter, they have many new songs, as well as earlier ones that they play live, but they don't have a studio version yet – and the band's audience wants to hear them on record, not just at a concert. They promise a change in sound, again with a deliberately sought contrast – many of the songs will have more live instruments, but there will also be ones that are completely electronic.‎
