B-side track from 'Nattmusik' by Mattias Gustafsson.

According to the theories of Greek/Roman scientist Claudius Galenus (131–216 AD), human temperament has a direct and reactionary link to the world around us. A phlegmatic personality is connected to water and the moist chill of winter; the aridity of summer is associated with fire and human irascibility. For the B.A.A.D.M. debut of Mattias Gustafsson (aka Altar Of Flies, Ornaments, Cryme), we presented him with this theory of human/world symbiosis and asked him to explore its numerous implications: the transience of environment and being, the regenerative intimacy between life and the earth, the prospect of death and decay as integral components of rebirth. 

'Nattmusik' is Gustafsson’s first record under his own name, removing the mediation of the artistic alias to fully embrace the symbiosis between body and environment. Keyboards splutter through bad wiring and wither into despondency, with notes engulfed by the sounds of earthly stir (tectonic rumbles of low frequency, muffled winds of sine wave). Symphonies of piano and electronics start to bloom and then flicker into states of death as the temperature suddenly drops. Body and telluric elements respire into eachother, as the contours of Galenus’ theory ripple with crumbling field recordings and spurts of melodic dejection. 'Nattmusik' depicts a world in which emotional decay feeds the flourish of nature – an earth thriving upon inevitable human decline.

MCHY I PORØSTY "Hypnagogic polish music for teenage mutants" (Recognition SP-01)

"Hypnagogic polish music for teenage mutants" is a debut album of Mchy i Porosty ('mosses and lichens') – a solo project of musician Bartosz Zaskórski. It's released as an art book - every track is accompanied by a drawing made by one of the artists invited to the project.

This album tells stories about getting asleep on the bus, control panels which finally supplanted picture tubes, Polish village which gets haunted by ghosts of drowned cats, teenage urban muitants wearing fashionable gear, and about wall units that one can find in illegal waste dumps in the middle of the forest. Humor is interlaced with terror, terror gets mixed with motor hum on the bus.

CD with hand-made artbook, limited to 100 copies !

Drawings by Aleksandra Waliszewska, Andrzej Tobis, Jakub Woynarowski, Dariusz Vasina, Marek Rachwalik, Mały Kotek, Sylwia Hajdus.
