Polish music – Tomasz Bednarczyk – Painting the sky together

Tomasz Bednarczyk hails from Wroclaw Poland and is an Electronic artist ‘Painting the sky together‘. Here are the usual lot of electronic ambiances you might expect from an instrumental artist trying draw out the inner feelings. Yet so well crafted are the pieces which run together like watercolors in a bowl that it doesn’t matter that you might have heard similar sounds before. Just as a set of patterned tiles can be adjusted to form new patterns so does this differ by the set up Tomasz has chosen.

Given time Bednarczyk offers something for your mind to fall into. Can something be both cool and cosy at the same instant? I don’t know for sure the answer to that, yet when I listen to “a bus-ride with a red haired girl” that is exactly how I feel. He surrounds the mix with walls of ice, that is driven forth by many laces of sound, and they are all being woven together, constantly moving on into the distance with you the listener being drawn along mid-air by the kaleidoscopic approach this album reaches out for and takes.

‘Agata’s film’ is a further showcase of the atmospheric playfulness of Tomasz Bednarczyk. Near it’s end it traps itself in its own dreams, having a liking for one instance so much that it forms a loop within which plays out till the tracks end.

There is an entrance to light rhythmical play in ‘Mi. Ti.’ whose blip like nature and sole piano key hold the track together for the entirety, and the song passes by like the soft wind.

Late in the album there is an addition of recorded voices set in the background barely audible in the electronic guests that blow from one end of the track to the next. The sense of the track being rewound and then released from this function constantly becomes more abundant than previously on the record. On the surface this is all minimal, this is what gives the album such a clarity and yet there is enough points where the album approaches pluralities of sound for the piece to feel vast.

If listened to in an noisy area or merely one of the tracks alone, segregated from it’s body, then you may not take much from this album. But given a bit of attention and time this record will help (I’m sure) you through those winter months and into spring!
