This solo release from Rafal Kolacki is made from tracks composed for a movie, called Panoptikon, influenced by M. Foucault's theory of permanent surveillance. Almost all tracks feature various guest artists so it aims to be varied.
"Wiedza Okrutna" opens this release with an oriental and hypnotic setting while "Obkakany w Zielniku" is a small interlude to "Jesyk Bez Konca" takes the listener to dark ambient territories of undoubtable charm. "Cialo Skazanca" is a noisy soundscape above a sad synth line while "Znaki I Przypadki" is a gentle track featuring even some sample of birds (or so it seems). "Widzialne Niewidzialne" is based on drone colored by some small noises and "Zywoty Ludzi Niegodziwych" is a marvelous track with small notes of piano that reverb in an open space. "Black Kazni" returns to darker territories with layers of violins. "Zamknieta Pokrywa Slonca" features a flute that dialogues with the soundscape. "Panoptyzm" is a drone track while "Plaga Goraczek" is a dark ambient one. "Wielkie Zamkniecie" close this release returning to small notes of piano dealing with a line of synth that seems to try to overwhelm it.
This is an album where the artistic personality of Kolacki is able to catch the boundaries of the genres crossed in the development of the musical path. It really worths a listen.
