Description

Księżyc (Polish for ‘the Moon’), who were present for two decades only on low-budget records, cassettes, and the Internet, has managed to attract a much larger audience, including many who don’t speak Polish.

On the debut album Księżyc (1996), Slavic folk meets psychedelia, and the music resists being assigned to any single genre. Acoustic instruments, such as the clarinet, Niziński’s saxophone, and Polak’s accordion, are equal to electronic instruments (used by both artists). Hanaj is responsible for the lyrics, and the mood ranges from archaic to weird, melancholic to grotesque. The artists call it the music of growing up, with all the anxiety and strong emotions characteristic of this period in life. They list Meredith Monk, Steve Reich, Arvo Pärt, and Dead Can Dance as their inspirations.
