Radical Polish Ansambl - nierozpoznana wieś (2024) [Hi-Res]

The album "Nierozpoznana wieś" ("Unrecognised village") is a creative exploration of Polish village music, not as a preserved artifact, but through the lens of the band's own experience and contemporary musical ideas. The concept of the "unrecognised village" was inspired by old archival photographs where specific facts are unknown, yet the images still tell stories. Radical Polish Ansambl, a group of six fiddlers and a drummer, takes traditional playing techniques passed down from village masters and transforms them into something new, infused with experimental and avant-garde elements. This is not merely a reinterpretation of folk music, but the creation of original compositions that reflect the musicians' personal experiences and reflections on rural culture, its contradictions, and its elusive magic. The album serves as a culmination of the ensemble's seven-year journey and has been hailed as one of the most significant events in Polish music in recent years.
