Lately the band released their single “My Self” which I found special because of its different style, when I asked what “Gramofone” means, Cristian Nicoara the drummer of the band answered “Gramofone reflects our influence of music from the past, especially the 70th and 80th period. But actually we just like the way it sounds”. The song “My Self” has an important meaning behind, Cristian said “the song was written at the beginning of lockdown, a time when sitting down with yourself and thinking hard about things was all we could do.
