Album Notes & Community Reviews

The Polish composer's third album was conceived as an acoustic reflection on impending doom and systemic, worldly collapse. The tracking balances somber string arrangements and stark piano melodies against imposing, heavy electronic drones and subtle choral elements. The result is a profoundly dark, cinematic exploration of modern classical tension.
