The album released on Kosmodrone label under exclusive distribution of Alchembria.pl "Random Soundtrack" is a kind of extended field recording or sonic Écriture automatique. It's another attempt to search the point where music and found sounds intersect. "Random Soundtrack" is a sort of sister album to last year's "Vanishing Land". Similarly to its predecessor, it is a series of interfusing recordings, compositions, scraps of field recordings, ordinary connectors. However, while "Vanishing Land" was the result of laborious shuffling a well-known material, "Random Soundtrack" is an album created in its own right, almost unconsciously. Its framework was created by some forgotten compositions and improvisations found in the memory of the recorder which coincidentally shaped a whole by themselves. Several elements that were added later only developed this sketch in a similar manner to the idea of André Breton. The album that was created this way is in fact more a synthesis of real images than a surreal vision. Quasifilm aesthetics and seemingly hypnotic sound hide a worrying thought about capturing the image of the last quiet days of the chaotic world. Release date: 17.10.2016
Mirt is a musician, designer, painter, and co-founder of modular synthesizer manufacturer XAOC Devices and labels Cat|Sun, Saamleng, and MonotypeRec. On Vanishing Land, Mirt fluently moves between chaos and order, mistake and purposefulness, blur and sharpness, and finally between analog modular tones, sounds created with acoustic instruments, and field...

Bad Times" is a kind of dark offshoot or reminiscence of Heading South. It is also one of four ep's or mini albums I've made in 2014. Each of them is small world or short novel, each is different but all of them are devoted to transitory moments and made under such influence. On seven inch vinyl there is only place for two short tracks but please treat it...

The new album by Rafał Kołacki entitled "Hijra. Noise from the Jungle" contains field recordings made during a trip to the temporary refugee camp called The Jungle in Calais, France. There lives about 4 000 immigrants where on a relatively small area various nations coexist creating an eclectic, unique sound culture. The album is a recording of music...
It is a continuation and opposition for the last album made by Mirt - "Heading South". Like its predecessor it is a kind of modern soundtrack for non-existent trash movie. The title is taken from one of the episodes of "Miami Vice", there are some voices taken from old zombie movies. Sounds like a joke, but it really can be a kind of rite of passage for...
