Utopiate | Bogarts | 11.29.14 | Cincinnati, OH

Elements is a tribute to alchemy, the transformation of matter. I always believed that sampling has the potential to transform a dusty, forgotten moment into a vibrant landscape of fantastic impossibilities. Music has an alchemic property, transforming silence into song, nothing into something. I chose Fire, Air, Water, and Earth, the four basic element of alchemy, as seeds for these songs. 
The first, Slivers of Light, represents fire, the sun, and the light given by both. Your Ghost, a song dedicated to the memory of my father Tadeusz Menert, signifies the element of air, and the unseen spirits therein. Eventide's two parts embody the duality of water: Part 1 is the turbulent high tide, water's destructive powers, crashing along the shores into Part 2, which sweeps through the lifegiving and cleansing properties, a low tide of sorts. The album closes with Quiet Earth, a song for my mother, Jolanta, as well as the earth that we chisel away at as a species. This song begins with the noise of humanity, with a lone voice cry out "Do you see, just what you mean to me" until the commotion calms, signifying the end of us, a finality, a quiet earth. 
I hope you enjoy what I consider my favorite work so far, remastered and released as a whole, digitally, for the first time ever.

Slivers Of Light

10k! Many thanks to all of my friends, family & Vibe Street fans for helping me get to 10k fans on FB. Threw this collection of old songs together as a proper release. Moving forward & bringing it back to when this project first started coming together.

I found this track the week before Electric Forest - it was the first beat I had made under the name Vibe Street in the summer of 2013. I had it up on Soundcloud for a while but took it down, and didn't realize how much I liked it until I came across it two years later. I debuted it towards the end of my Tripolee set on Saturday of Forest and wanted to release it today as a free download. This is a thank all of my fans, friends and family for all of the love you give back to me on a daily basis.  Thank you all for your positive energy and smiles and for allowing us all to be a part of this journey together.

Samson's Haircut

This fall Michal Menert takes his renowned musical stylings to the next level as he drops the debut studio album from his six-piece live band, Michal Menert and the Pretty Fantastics. The lyrically-driven, electronic/indie LP is out NOW on Super Best Records.

The debut album for the sextet is like nothing you've ever heard from Menert, and will distinguish Michal Menert and the Pretty Fantastics as its own musical force with a uniquely indie-rock style. With beautiful melodic structure, vocals from Michal himself, and playfully inventive lyricism, this LP takes a leap in an exciting new direction while maintaining the uncompromising songwriting and production that we've come to expect.

Don't miss the band on tour accompanied by additional sets from fellow Super Best artists Marcelo Moxy and WillDaBeast, and support from StarRo (Soulection) and Russ Liquid.
