Hey guys! If you're still interested in learning some of this tunes, head over to sheethappenspublishing.com, as we finally released a complete guitar tab book for the Lotus! Hope you enjoy love
Keep your music coming please!! I think your solo work is the best out of the projects you're involved in. Diverse, and not overdone in any aspect, with just the right balance of feel and emotion. Two thumbs up from this guy!!!
Jakub Zytecki hey it's Jeremiah I've been waiting brother, I can't get a hold of David cause he's in C.A but, I'm so glad I found you email me Jeremiahgatlyn92@gmail.com
Amazing. But...I mean, it must take many years to record an album like this. The rhythms alone, building layers, getting all the notes right, especially on the intricate solos...timing and layering of the pads/effects, reviewing the progress... for an album of this detail and (over)-intricacy, that could take a decade. What is your studio access situation?!
I think 3:18 to 3:50 is incredible, his phrasing and the use of slides and selective times to mute the strings and not to mention his note choices! And the fact that he plays chords in the middle of his complex phrasing is just such an unbelievable demonstration of mastery over the instrument that hes able to pull off these licks with such finesse and style. I know it can sound just like mindless shredding to the average listener but when you really hear whats going on you realize how brilliant he really is.
I love the concept of having separate artwork for each track, It adds to the listener's experience. It's fun to imagine how the paintings are connected to the music.
I only came here to listen to the nullity rooted song to hear any difference between this and the little live recording there was when i looked up "Jakub Zytecki". I ended up listening to Fall of Logic and Majin. I dont know what to say. All i know is that this kind of music is frighteningly addictive (i never though i could describe music like this) and i feel like im connecting with it sooooo hard right now. Im going to listen to the rest of this, because you my friend (and your skills) have my most genuine and undivided attention. I came to know your name because of your performance with Plini. This breaks all barriers and understandings of music. Idk man, fuuuck!
+Straat Telus looking back at my original comment I can see how some may think I was stoned, since I was just completely taken over by the power of this album. It gets you in the zone. Maybe a stoned zone, but a great zone nonetheless!
Holy crap. Thank god I found this dude and his band. I am a drummer, and this is like somewhere between tappy math rock and experimental metal djent madness. I thought it was going to be just the first song, and it jest kept going. Brilliance on all musicians ends and those that decided breaks and song structure and such... So well done.
this is truly impressive ... rare compositional creativity ... thank God young ppl are discovering musicianship ... this is a phenomenal work ... and i am grateful for the existence in this world of the other 60,865 people who like this, and grateful to be a part of such an elite sector of humanity
This album will forever stand as one of the most diverse, daring and diligently produced solo albums any guitarist has crafted. Truly the Passion and Warfare of the 21st centrury.
This album has some sort of spiritual impact on me. Evokes these emotions I've only ever felt in dreams. Unearths things that have been festering in my subconscious, and brings a temporary release from the dreary humdrum of daily life in this modern world of ours. I can say the same of "Living Mirrors" by Disperse. Not much music out there has the power to bring tears to my eyes the way songs like "Dancing with Endless Love" do. Jakub Zytecki, I don't know what "it" is, but you've certainly got "it."
this is perfection ... I am totally addicted to this album .. you are extremely talented Jakub , Bless you , You are absolutely one of my all time favourites
The most underrated guitar player/musician from the new generation, his work is beyond crazy!! And the playing...Speed, clever licks, vibrato, creativity, a monster right hand and an outstanding rythmic feel/ use of ghost notes.. A shame he doesn't get more attention...Keep it up Jakub!
This album, WOW, as an long time prog/rock/metal and music geek in general for 30+ years, this album, this ARTIST Jakub Zytecki is an absolute gift to music, i have spent countless hours the last 4 years listening to all his music, he is very very special. He is up there with my all time favourite 3 guitarist as well, THAN YOU JAKUB !
HOLY FUCK! Dude, this is one of the best albums i´ve witnessed in a long time! Can´t believe this only got like 150k views... Instantly bought it on ITunes!
Ja nawet nie wiem co napisać... kupa bardzo dobrej roboty - muzyki... dziś na rynku muzycznym nic mnie nie może wciągnąć, ale to trafiło w środek mojego klimatu - MISTRZ !!!
I’m back, this work is a Surgical Strike. Violent in the most loving way. There are guitarist I have heard and I think “I play that way in my head but my hands can’t function that way …..” then there is Jakub, I am speechless.
There's not a single song on this album that's followed by a song with similar style. And for that? I thank you so much. Love the old stuff. Love the new. Keep on jamming!
You know what I love about this? you cant classify this to any specific genre, seriously bro you have truly created a masterpiece, I loved every bit of it, so unique, so creative, cant wait to hear more! :)
I've waited about a month to hear this,and continue to. (still waiting on physical copy in mail) Jakub is an amazing composer/player. im grateful to have such music be a part of my life, regardless.
Such a complete, brave, honest album. It's so amazing to hear some nice bass skills, death metal vocals and even a bit of Hammock influence. But the most incredible thing is that even if You shine as bloody good guitar player, the music shines even more.
Whenever I hear Jakub, Plini or David shred I imagine all three of them hangin' on Olympus givin each other high fives while shredin and just laughing their asses off, while all the gods are just dancing to their awesome music. It's that fucking good!
Jakub - I love what you and Plini and Widek and Sithu and Maxim Micic are doing. Just beautiful stuff. I absolutely love it and I'm hard to please.. BONUS POINTS FOR THAT WET SWEET JUICE AT 31:40 you slippery shredder melody guy, you. =)
+Monika Adamska Nie tylko Ty na szczescie ,ale z wpisow widac , ze chlopak nie jest za bardzo znany w kraju. Nie on jeden. Moze to sie w koncu zmieni. Pozdro.
Dude... this album is totally awesome!! I can't even stop to replay the whole album! This is a new level of awesomness! Incredible work, Jakub! I'd love some much the 3 last songs! Avifors Day is one of the most greatest songs I've heard!
I just love how the track Plini features in sounds like a tune in the style of Plini and the same goes for David's feature. This whole album is well done!! Love it to death
YES!! so pumped to get into this. You're my favorite guitarist man, for real. Every time I stop playing I jam some of your stuff/guest solos and it makes me want to keep playing and getting better haha
43K views - hope it keeps growing. This new batch of prodigal virtuoso young guitar players influenced heavily by Petrucci (you know John loves it!) playing the Ernie Ball guitars RIPPING and COMPOSING these GREAT songs just warms my heart. Jakub is channeling Morse, Greg Howe, lil touch of Saraceno in there.... just wonderful. I fail to see how anyone on this small little youtube channel comment section could possibly "troll" or say anything even remotely negative. Delicious aural presentation.
This album open with my favorite track. I remember listening to this little sepia toned video he made some years back. What a catchy innovative groove it had. Well done again !
I’m 66 years old , I have listened to music all my life. This is the single greatest work I have ever Heard. Jakub I am beyond moved.
Haha. Jakub is the man. Be sure to visit his newer stuff as well. Or even earlier works like Disperse. The kid is a force of nature.
mega love bro
Plini has spoken!
ohm!
Congratulations on your latest EP too!
Nice guest lead ;)
This is literally one of the most creative prog metal albums I've ever heard.
You guys dont't know Haken and Native Construct ;) Maybe Leprous too, they're really creative
This album changed my life.
@@XxNoMErcY99xX Leprous lmao
@@nakuuu7677 Leprous is great :)
i miss this sound from him honestly.
Miss this so much!
I love his heavy stuff!
Relistened it few weeks ago and it's really phenomenal!
It was the best.
2021, still some of the best guitar playing I’ve ever heard.

the end of yellow.....gets me every time man!!
doesn't matter what year it is
always
goosebumps
Same
The end of that butt gets me every time
Its a perfect ending for a perfect song from a marvelous album
fav moments:
23:00 - disco thall orgasm
31:06 - gtr+synth lick
41:32 - sudden stops in the chorus
44:20 - obviously
55:21 - ridiculous slides
1:01:10 - changing to an atmospheric triplet groove
amazing album!!!
where's satya's diary ending dude?
oh yeah.
9:41 - heartbreaking but epic minor chord
i really that country licks in the intro as well
26:34 most discusting intro to break and break itself...

one of best album of all time
I love the concept of having separate artwork for each track, It adds to the listener's experience. It's fun to imagine how the paintings are connected to the music.
Exactly what I was thinking
Congrats on the release Jakub! You killed it in every single way
Now its your turn to release an album sean ;)
I only came here to listen to the nullity rooted song to hear any difference between this and the little live recording there was when i looked up "Jakub Zytecki".

+From the Zephyr woow, thanks man! So glad to know that Plini shows could give me some recognition.
+Jakub Zytecki More than you can imagine Jakub. Great work !
+Straat Telus looking back at my original comment I can see how some may think I was stoned, since I was just completely taken over by the power of this album. It gets you in the zone. Maybe a stoned zone, but a great zone nonetheless!
+From the Zephyr "frighteningly addictive". perfect description. might as well say that i was frighteningly addicted for the past few months :)
Anup Sastry's "Lion" is what brought me here (o:
Jakub and David Maxim inspired my entire life really in many ways.
Thank u both for existing.
Holy crap. Thank god I found this dude and his band. I am a drummer, and this is like somewhere between tappy math rock and experimental metal djent madness. I thought it was going to be just the first song, and it jest kept going. Brilliance on all musicians ends and those that decided breaks and song structure and such... So well done.
Świetna muzyka. Szcunek za aranże i za kunszt gry na instrumecie. Brawo!
this is truly impressive ... rare compositional creativity ... thank God young ppl are discovering musicianship ... this is a phenomenal work ... and i am grateful for the existence in this world of the other 60,865 people who like this, and grateful to be a part of such an elite sector of humanity
Lost my mind the second I heard "Yes". Always loved that video you posted.
Fuck yes! I love how it came out too, a full minute with just one guitar was a pretty bold move and it works perfectly.
Yellow is the most beautiful song I ever heard. I keep coming back an replaying. Hats off to your singing Jakub
Chciałem napisać...., ale.... brak słów..... w głowie mam tylko: GENIALNAAAAAAAA!!!! Najlepsza płyta ostatnich stuleci.
Coś pięknego!
This album will forever stand as one of the most diverse, daring and diligently produced solo albums any guitarist has crafted. Truly the Passion and Warfare of the 21st centrury.
Came back here, after all these years, to reiterate my statement. Masterful, masterful work throughout.
Ojej, no jestem pod wrażeniem. Dopiero pierwsze kółko, ale już wiem, że będzie pętelka. Brawo, zią. Oby więcej takiej muzyki.

+Rachelle Ghanem lots thanks! wanna make out?

still blown away every time i come back to this album! thrill ride

What a release. Creative and dynamic. Technique, production, huge amounts of musicality. Absolutely brilliant work.
New Era of music has come.. yeah!!!
Agreed. IMHO such guitarists with great technical skills and imagination during impros are somewhere between prog rock and fusion/jazz
One of my favourite albums of all time! Jakub, you are genius!
Harsh Blows was unbelievable. My discoveries keep getting better and better...
Dear Jakub! You made my life better by making this masterpiece! Thank you!
I'm at the half of the album, but I need to rest. It was just too much
I’m back, this work is a Surgical Strike. Violent in the most loving way. There are guitarist I have heard and I think “I play that way in my head but my hands can’t function that way …..” then there is Jakub, I am speechless.
There's not a single song on this album that's followed by a song with similar style. And for that? I thank you so much. Love the old stuff. Love the new. Keep on jamming!
And can we talk about his phrasing?? Holy shit, top notch. 28:34 WOW
Atonal progressive cosmic dissonative mind blowing...atmospheric and beautiful. Genius!
I love when people like Jakub, come out with something like this!!! It's fucking Inspiring, revitalizing, kick ass !!!! Love it. Thanks Jakub.
Amazing work Jakub!
Out of this world man! Blown away by this album right now.
Very tasty record. Great job to Jakub Zytecki, producers, guest appearances, and recording engineer.
cold is my fuckin JAM. so well put together.
Bite my fingers through. It's absurdly good. Please don't stop creating and recording.
This is the best album I've ever heard (I haven't heard it yet)
Anund Vikingstad haha. I did :Ъ
spoiler: ITS FUCKING AMAZING.
*prays to prog for Umpfel x Zytecki collab*
So many great goosebump-inducing moments on this album. Love the work you put into this!
Just treated myself to a listen-through of the whole thing. Whooaa. So much going on. It's like the exploration of an entire other world, all of it.
You know what I love about this? you cant classify this to any specific genre, seriously bro you have truly created a masterpiece, I loved every bit of it, so unique, so creative, cant wait to hear more! :)
I love how there is lots of Jazzy Metal and Jazzy Rock out there
Your emotion, creativity, dynamics and use of space are very rare at your age...Also I love David's solo. Seriously fantastic work here!
Dude this album is RIDICULOUS, thank you for making our lives better with it!
+Brintman thats how we do! hehe much thanks mayn! well keep em comin! im so bored here cant wait to play!
8:00 - 10:24, best outro to a song ever.....Also, Majin sounds like Pantera & Korn put together
I was wondering if anyone else thought he sounded like Korn haha
Jakubie jestem pod wrażeniem :) Życzę kolejnych udanych nagrań :)
Estupendo álbum, felicidades Jakub! eres un gran músico.
It's..... Beautiful...
In every way...
thumbs up for synergy :)
I simply cannot stop listening to this masterpiece! And Disperse is also great. Fan for life!
so many of my favourite artists! so keen to listen to the rest of this, only a few minutes in and already enjoying it
The solo on Yellow, moves mountains my friend.
They way you play with dynamics and melody is just ridiculous! Awesome stuff!
Hitting "play again" over and over while waiting for the physical copy to come :) Wonderful work Jakub.
I late 7 year for listen this 🎧🥺
Pewnego dnia ten album będzie żywą legendą, a świętować to będziesz z Tosinem Abasim przy piwku :D
Jesteś genialny!
I've waited about a month to hear this,and continue to. (still waiting on physical copy in mail) Jakub is an amazing composer/player. im grateful to have such music be a part of my life, regardless.
+dawnofspiritualawakening it will come dont worry. guaranteed!

2022, November in Arlington NE. USA. I have a new favorite Axe handler. This music is gut wrenching in a Perfect way.

Fucking amazing dude! :D
Jakub - I love what you and Plini and Widek and Sithu and Maxim Micic are doing. Just beautiful stuff. I absolutely love it and I'm hard to please.. BONUS POINTS FOR THAT WET SWEET JUICE AT 31:40 you slippery shredder melody guy, you. =)
The intro to cold is so good but yellow is my absolute favorite
still one of the most satisfying listens after a couple years. timeless.
Słucham tego już pięćdziesiąty raz, a zapomniałem dać plusa. Nadrabiam. :D
+Piotr Iskra O, widzę, że nie tylko ja się wkręciłam :D
+Monika Adamska Nie tylko Ty na szczescie ,ale z wpisow widac , ze chlopak nie jest za bardzo znany w kraju. Nie on jeden. Moze to sie w koncu zmieni. Pozdro.
Z autopsji wiem, ze raczej marne szanse.
+Monika Adamska , nie ma co marudzić. :) czy też w tym przypadku Madmoodzić
That solo + outro of Yellow is the perfect ending for a magnificent album!
I've been waiting for this for a few years. It's magically. Thank you, Jakub!
Still one of the best albums I've ever heard.
I've waited a long time for this. Happy about how it turned out!
An absolutely inspiring work. I can hear you reaching out toward greatness with every nuanced note you play.
Amazing, melodious and super inspiring album! Congratulations!
I really enjoyed each of the song! Amazing man!
I can't stop listening to Run!
Dude... this album is totally awesome!!
I can't even stop to replay the whole album! This is a new level of awesomness!

Avifors Day is one of the most greatest songs I've heard!
Great music and nice ideas behind the images too!!! Proper guest!

Great songwriting as always and great artwork, just WOW ! Congrats Jakub !
