Master Stone - BANG'A'GONG (2025) Hi Res

Maciej Sondij (also known as frontman of P.Unity) conceived the Master Stone concept when Beluga Stone was in the making, thus opening the door to his solo career. Now he's embarking on it to give new life to compositions that had been waiting to be unpacked for years and to embark on a phase of independent publishing and concert activity. The project is also a manifesto of sorts, based on the idea of creating, releasing, and performing without excessive interpretation, so that music can live and continue to be enjoyable.

Through years of collaboration with larger bands, he's longed to shed dependencies and release something more personal, independently, going against the grain of existing trends. The material is primarily psychedelic guitar music, at times soothing and enveloping, and at others unsettling and thought-provoking. It's an expression of his search for a form that can engage the here and now, exert a greater influence and provoke reflection, as well as provide casual companionship and form the backdrop to our everyday lives.

The album is a cross-sectional record of many years of independent creative work and, in a sense, the conclusion of a certain stage.
