Michal JACASZEK [ Ссылка ]
talks about his music in a very self-assured way. He lists clear moods, behaviors, and feelings (nostalgia, misery, classical music, and contemporary ambient electronic artists such as Tim Hecker) that influence the way he works. This is noteworthy for two reasons—first, because the Polish artist is explaining all of this very clearly in English, and second because the subsuming, amorphous pastiches of noise, samples, and tones he is known for aren’t easily put into words, let alone a second language.

Jacaszek’s work, first appearing on the SMM: Context compilation, is a melange of classical instrumentation—harpsichords, woodwinds, strings—and blurring, rubbed-down electronic textures, all of which makes listening an intensely cathartic, exploratory experience. This is, more than anything else, music as a mind and body exploration.
