The sun, kissing the forehead through half-closed blinds; the night, coming uninvited through a windowpane like a damp, sticky shroud. Light and darkness, solid foundations and elusive glimpses of parallel realities. Armies of digital insects -- taken aback by warmth of one brave heart, '90s chillout rooms updated for today's vast and desolated space full of fragile souls desperate in their look for any kind of communion; "artificial intelligence" after three decades of wandering, trying to finally find a helping hand, solace and peace. Shimmer and shine. Welcome to Pristine, a new recording from the mind of Jacek Sienkiewicz. For the past years Jacek has been escaping his image of relentless producer and performer of driving, multi-layered club music. His most recent works include deep ambient records, abstract electro-acoustic experiments, and super smart, stripped-down yet incredibly complex contemporary electronica. The last few records, mostly on his own label Recognition include albums with Max Loderbauer and AtomTM, reinterpretations of works by Bogdan Mazurek of the legendary Polish Radio Experimental Studio, scores for radio plays and last year's massively overlooked "Krasz", music for theatrical performance of Ballard/Cronenberg's "Crash". "Pristine", a labor of love, is at times abstract and atonal, at times breathtakingly beautiful and tender. Eight tracks written and performed in Jacek's unmistakable, singular style, and covering many grounds -- abstract, electronic forms, neo-classical wonders, super tight compositions and freeform, jazz-like improvisations and stripped-down rhythms. Different moods, machine-translated and reverse-engineered in a variety of recording locations, make up this exceptional record. Shimmer and shine, immerse and enjoy. Co-financed by the Minister Of Culture And National Heritage of Poland. The project has been implemented in co-production with Recognition Records and the National Centre for Culture of Poland.
