Cisowa-Wrzeszcz – new album
Tomasz Garstkowiak and Piotr Salewski appeared on the Tricity music scene at the beginning of the century thanks to the Old Time Radio band, which, in a pioneering way in Poland, combined intelligent electronics with acoustic sounds and pop melodies. Cisowa–Wrzeszcz is a project in which musicians expand their aesthetic explorations, drawing inspiration from ambient, krautrock and progressive electronics. “Wyspa” is the duo’s third album. Eight compositions created over the last two years are inspired primarily by space and landscapes. The songs are dominated by disturbing drones, spatial sound spots and processed guitar sounds. The whole thing brings to mind an unusual soundtrack – sometimes sultry and disturbing, sometimes subtle and melancholic. The sparse lyrics harmonize with the sound.
