PROGRAM NOTE
For many years, my wife Victoria and her FAB5 quintet (string quartet and percussion), have entertained thousands of people at numerous performance spaces and travel hubs in New York City, including Moynihan Train Hall, Oculus World Trade Center, Javits Center, and Chelsea Market. Having seen many of their shows, especially those at travel hubs, there's a certain tension and release you experience watching people wait anxiously for their trains, and then the release they feel when they are finally on their way. I've had these experiences myself, so I wanted to create two pieces that emulate these feelings.

Wound Up/Unwind consists of two contrasting pieces for string quartet and percussion. The first, Wound Up, for string quartet and cajón, imitates the feeling of being worried, anxious, and frustrated, especially while waiting to board a train. The second, Unwind, for string quartet and handpan, is calm and soothing, perhaps emulating the satisfying feeling of relaxing in a quiet seat as the train leaves the station. Both pieces can be performed independently and in any order.

Wound Up/Unwind is written for and commissioned by the FAB5 quintet with support from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs.

Surralicja

"SurAlicja" is a journey into the world of surrealism, combining elements of "Alice in Wonderland" and the work of René Magritte. The title is a play on words that combines "surrealism" and "Alice." The lyrics evoke the magical, often absurd atmosphere of "Alice in Wonderland," where the boundaries between reality and fantasy blur. At the same time, we incorporated a motif from Rene Magritte's painting "The Lovers," where the characters' faces and heads are wrapped in white cloth, symbolizing mystery and the concealment of truth. The combination of these two inspirations creates a dreamlike atmosphere. The piece prompts reflection on the boundaries of imagination and reality.

Vocal : Magdalena Meisel
Music : Magdalena Meisel, Jarosław Toifl, Marcel Różanka, Wypich Artur Adam
Lyrics : Krzysztof Wartak,
Producer/publisher : Krzysztof Wartak, Malovana

Malovana is a band in its musical form, inspired by the works of painters, concept artists, and designers.

Imagine approaching the painting "Demon" and hearing the buzz, conversations, and music. Krzysztof Wartak's inspiration for "Malovana" brought selected works of art to life through sound, emotion, and narrative. The songs encompass a wide range of texts, also touching on vivid historical figures and timeless events. The results of this unprecedented project will be experienced during concerts organized by the Malovana band in 2025, where outstanding musicians will perform. Their interpretations will transform many works of art and historical events from now on.

Just some twitter musings on the present lawlessness in general.

Lyrics:

A journo was making a rather wooden take
That our very cultural survival was at stake
Reciting cliches, chapter and verse
And the state of his cause got progressively worse
As i passively catalogued his obvious failings

As i witnessed his histrionic railing
I admired his persistence 
Tearing on the weenies
Burying the gawking grifters
And telling those randy stoats to get wrecked
And extolling in all parts the liminal grace of 
The champions of full-gilled bravado
And forthright deportment
And bewailing the existence of
Beanie wearing peacoat-bedecked hipsters
Walking around carrying artisanal baked goods
And oat milk cortados in broad daylight in Portland

But the reality of course was rather more dire
Notably an individual in lingerie
Covered in sores stomping a windshield 
And generally ruining some hapless driver's day
Before attempting to light a man on fire
The nearby police 
Bereft of civic desire
Watched for a moment
Before calmly walking away

Banalities Of The Peacoat-Bedecked

No Need To Wait

Mr Nobody invisible to all but not the universe

Mr Nobody

My First Live Set (Live) - The lights dim, the bass hums, and the room starts to pulse with energy. Stepping behind the decks, the first beat drops — a stripped-back groove laced with tight percussion and a hypnotic rhythm. This is tech house: minimal, punchy, and relentlessly infectious.

Blending deep, rolling basslines with crisp hi-hats and quirky synth stabs, the set builds like a controlled burn. Every transition is a moment to guide the crowd, to stretch tension or cut loose. It’s not about peaks and drops — it’s about the groove. You keep them locked in, heads nodding, feet shuffling, riding the vibe from start to finish.

Darksynth Halloween - Part 2

Third single, zero chill. “Hell No Bro!” explodes with fast riffs, raw vocals, and a middle-of-nowhere punk attitude that refuses to back down.
It’s the sound of saying *no* — to fake friends, fake rules, and every dead-end expectation. Turn it up and scream along.

Hell no bro!!

You said grow up, I said no thanks
I’ll stay right here with the beer and the pranks
You’re talking careers, I’m talking shows
You’re getting old fast, I’m screaming hell no

Hell no bro, I ain’t going your way
I’ll waste my time the punk rock way
Hell no bro, don’t tell me what’s right
I’ll keep screaming into the night

Into the night!!

Break it down, guitars kick in
Crowd jumps high, let the chaos begin

Hell no bro, I ain’t going your way
I’ll waste my time the punk rock way
Hell no bro, don’t tell me what’s right
I’ll keep screaming into the night

Into the night!!

Into the night!!

Hell no bro!!

Hell no bro!!

Forever young!!

Hell No Bro!

The Yearn Of A Camelopard / The Turn Of An Ambiguous Trick

A therapeutic journey into a mix of jazz, classical, and a blend of types of electronica.  And a wry, gradual observation that promotion tends to only go as far as you push it.  At least I make my fellow musicians laugh a little.
