I'm a musician and composer. Sometimes I pretend I'm

a visual artist. I make multi-genre stuff that's hard to describe. I mostly use my guitar and computer. Big fan of field recordings, too. Oh, and doughnuts! I love doughnuts.

I was born in 1990. So, according to the quirky generational labels, I am a millennial. I grew up in happy times of absurdity and hope. I graduated in political science from the University of Warsaw. I'm not a political scientist. Nor a politician.

 

I’m a sound artist, guitarist and composer. Also active as digital artist or creative thinker or… blah blah blah. I do too many things that I can't clearly explain to my parents. I'm focused on experimental projects, mixing old and new technologies because that's what I like. My works are mostly based on guitar loops deconstruction, field recordings and random samples. And clicking pixels, too.

 

What I enjoy most is capturing city noise and aesthetics through sounds and visuals. I tend to be minimalist in this process, although I'm not quite sure what that means these days. Oh by the way, I received a scholarship from the Polish Ministry of Culture’s “Culture on the Web” program. I live and create in Warsaw, Poland.

I am the founder of MM3, a band recognized in Poland and abroad for its electro-jazz approach. MM3 released two awesome long-plays - Squirrels and Butterflies (2014) and Ambient Works (2016). Squirrels won the prize for 2014 Jazz Phonographic Debut of the Year, woo hoo! The latest release of the trio is a single underwater (2020).

 

I'm also the founder of the band NUDA. It's an avant-garde quartet that records and performs very irregularly and infrequently. NUDA. plays 95% improvised music. Even I don't know what that means. Our debut album was well received by critics as one of the best Polish jazz recordings in 2020, LOL.

 

Since 2021, I have been a member of Jazzpospolita. I co-create the band's music as well as the visual and media concepts that accompany our albums and concerts. The new lineup of Jazzpo released the album OBIEKT. I like the title piece the most.

 

I still enjoy being a musician in the old-school sense, where you record music, release it on albums, and then travel to play concerts in different places. I've already toured in Germany, Scotland, China, Vietnam, Lithuania, Ukraine. And in Poland, obviously.
