Na letu On board
Zašto volite avione?
Why do you like planes?
Osećam se kao ptica na nebu I feel like a bird in the sky
– Što se aviona tiče, najviše volim uzletanje, sletanje i ono između. (smeh) Ja- sno vam je da prosto obožavam letenje i sve u vezi sa letenjem. Sanjam o tome da jednog dana i sam budem pilot. Kad letim, ose- ćam mešavinu adrenalina i slobo- de. Osećam se kao ptica na nebu. Volim, naravno, i da sedim po- red prozora i posmatram mesta sa kojih uzlećem i ona u koja sle- ćem. Naročito Bokokotorski za- liv i Njujork. Bez čega ne ulazite u avion? – U avion ne idem bez kruž- nog jastuka za vrat i slušalica, od- nosno nekog gedžeta za slušanje muzike. Jasno je da bez muzike nikuda ne idem, nikad! Ko je Filip Filip Bulatović, umetničkog ime- na Mapo Keys, srpski je džez mu- zičar – pijanista, kompozitor, pop/ fank kantautor i producent.

“When it comes to planes, I most like take- offs , landings, and the bit in be- tween [laughs]. It’s clear to you that I simply adore flying and everything to do with flying. I dream of one day being a pilot myself. When I fly, I feel a mixture of adrenaline and freedom. I feel like a bird in the sky. Of course, I also like to sit by the window and view the places I’m taking-off from and those where I land. That’s especially so with the Bay of Kotor and New York.” What don’t you board a plane without? “I don’t enter a plane without a circular pillow for my neck and head- phones, or some device for listen- ing to music. I clearly don’t go an- ywhere without music, ever! who is Filip Filip Bulatović, better known by his stage name Mapo Keys, is a Serbian jazz musi- cian – pianist, composer, pop/funk sing- er-songwriter and producer.
