WARSZAWA

Description

WRWTFWW Records is pleased to announce a new collaborative album between Polish producer, multi-instrumentalist and sound engineer Albert Karch (notably known for his superb 2019 album Celestially Light with Ichiko Aoba) and the Irish ambient master and label favorite Gareth Quinn Redmond. The 6-track LP is offered in a limited edition of 300 copies worldwide with artwork by Dublin artist Barry Gibbons and liner notes. Recorded at Albert Karch's studio in Warsaw in January 2023, Warszawa is conceptually rooted in the reason the two artists first met: the work of Japanese composer Satoshi Ashikawa (Still Way - Wave Notation 2), who sought to compose stationary time. With a stripped-down approach but precise intention, the 6 tracks of the collaborative album were sculpted with a precise and floating use of piano, drums, synthesizers and strings. The result is a gentle yet emotionally deep minimalist ambient music, a reassuring environmental music with an indescribable touch of Mark Hollis, another artist whose work influenced the recording sessions.
