Everest by Borrtex
This is the music I’ve been working on for the past year, a journey like no other. Composing this album was a deeply personal and creative exploration, pushing me towards new horizons. It’s about overcoming challenges, following our dreams, and discovering who we truly are. I hope this music becomes a soundtrack for your own expedition through life too!
Inspired by a real expedition of Lenka Poláčková & Honza Poláček, a married couple who successfully summited Everest last year in May 2024.
Bringing this album to life was a collaborative effort with many talented musicians from around the world, each adding their own unique artistry to the compositions. I’m beyond grateful to have worked with such an incredible team.
