Ben McElroy - I Must Have Walked Past There a Thousand Times (with Elinor Rowlands)

Siewcy to projekt muzyczny który powstał z inicjatywy dwójki śląskich aktywistów - Jarosława Wieczorka i Jonasza Borkowskiego. Stworzony jest z miłości do muzyki i potrzeby wyrażania swoich emocji, które towarzyszą nam w tym obojętnym na krzywdę świecie.

M Linnen (b. 1970), experimental recordist, film-music composer, quiescent musician, soporific sound designer, & sadsack, has crafted strange, slow music since before the turn of the century

Linnen composed four feature film scores (w/ David Wingo), performed in numerous arcane bands - Monroe Mustang, the Pilot Ships (w/ the late great Brian McBride), & several other even more maligned and obscure projects

collaborations, shared projects, ideas ..

Musical simbiosis. I aim to create soundscapes with loops using my voice, keys, bass and other electronic devices as an attempt  to remain sane amidst this madness...
I also make experimental music with plants using a biofeedback device.

----------------------------
each release start with the end of the previous one.
in sounds and visually. 
an exquisite corpse with 100 releases which will make the loop.

Henry's music is driven by community and collective experience, taking inspiration from jazz, folklore, club culture and their Brazilian heritage.
