Wide Grey
CD album release | Eilean rec | 2017
The first artist’s release on Eilean Records contains a set of compositions created during Artist-in-Residence programs in Norway and Greece. Using field recordings as the basis for further musical compositions, the artist reveals the power of sound combination and the natural potential of a given place. Seemingly unnecessary sound events are treated here as key elements, revealing a massive landscape of possible progressions.
Composed and performed by Jacek Doroszenko – electronics, prepared & grand piano, field recordings, electric & acoustic guitar, bells, gates, toys, random objects.
Recorded at The Quality Studio and artist’s studio, Warsaw PL, 2016-2017. Field recordings and compositional basis have been produced during Artist-in-Residence program at Kunstnarhuset Messen in Ålvik, Norway and The Island-Resignified in Lefkada, Greece.
