Already in 2002, Intars competed in “Eurodziesm” with the group “Caffe” and the song “Amberland”.
“I didn’t sing before that. Maybe you can consider me as a singer from 2002,” says Intars. Remembering his beginnings, Intars remembers that after “Caffe” there was a break and he only started singing solo due to circumstances and that was in 2004.
“By complete coincidence. He wanted to eat terribly, his son had just been born. I had to do something and then I started singing,” says Intars.
The long-awaited album will soon reach the listeners
Intar knows how to make himself wait. The album has been awaited for five years. The big event is coming this month, the album “Playing Your Magic Flute” will be released in October. Also the single of the new album is “Playing on your magic flute”. Intars talks about the new album, its creation and preparation for the album launch event in the “Pats krejumiņš” podcast.
“It seems to me that we ourselves have been waiting for six years, because exactly six years have passed since the release of the album. Don’t know why so long? Time had to be ripe for that. The mind had to mature and finally had something to say. Also a pandemic. So many experiences, events and there was time to talk. Nothing happens the same way. So what is it in terms of time – six years,” said Intars.

“I, too, have broken myself over the years… The pandemic proved that no one really needs your profession. So why am I creating something there? Nobody will listen. We will not go to the public. The song “Playing Your Magic Flute” is about the fact that we just have to do what we want to do, what we love to do and we only prove it when we do it. In fact, we have to do our own thing. That’s what we were made for. And the audience likes it when you are yourself. Songs don’t just happen. I have tested this for myself,” Intars shares his thoughts.
In the interview, the conversation turned to many changes – the pandemic, the political situation is also not separated from the world of art and the environment of musicians. Intar’s life and career also changed after February 24, 2022, when Russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
Intar remembers the events that proved that “something is not right,” which reinforced in him the feeling that the war should be talked about and not stand aside.
The film “My Dad – Intars Busulis” is coming soon
The premiere of the film “Mans tetis – Intars Busulis” is also expected in October. The directors of the film are Edgars and Anna Lūsiņi.
“The idea arose to tell something about me through the prism of children. How much can I tell about myself?! I express myself better in songs. A film about our private lives. It’s such a unique case, because usually I have separated my private and family life from the public and this time we are allowing our family life to be seen. On October 17, we will already announce the dates for one-off cinema screenings in Latvian cities, where I and my eldest daughter Emīlija will go to each of the cinemas and answer the questions of the movie viewers,” Intars reveals in the conversation.
