Slavic folk, ambient psychedelia, 20th century minimalism and vocal experiments - Polish band Księżyc floats somewhere between, happily resisting simple genre categorization. The surreal and haunting beauty of their music is amplified by the fairy tale inspired lyrics Remek Hanaj has created.

For this episode, Remek has curated an hour of Eastern European 
avant-folk. It displays some of the creative diversity of the region and its relationship with blending traditional and contemporary ideas.
