JACEK SIENKIEWICZ 9799 EP 12"

Recognition opens up its archives and invites to a futuristic sentimental journey with respective stages set by the records
9702 (CD version) and 9799 (four exclusive tracks on a vinyl EP). Four tracks from single come from the time of Jacek
Sienkiewicz's first record (Recognition CD). These earliest recordings openly refer to a formula and rhythmical density of
Detroit Techno, although end result of this confrontation turns out to be surprisingly "separate" and individualistic. In
turn, 9702 album contains a set of varied tracks recorded withing five years after Warsaw label's launch and its first
release. Extended compositions and short improvised sound notes resemble eccentric propositions of such labels as
(early) Warp or Rephlex, standing next to melancholy-saturated minimalistic techno and abstract collage structures
which prove out to share many characteristics of clicks'n'cuts movement of the second half of the 1990s. Usage of
human voice samples is an outstanding feature of many of these archive materials. Entirety of mastered-anew content
encompassing both records, contains all principal trademarks which distinguish Jacek Sienkiewicz's creations an his label
Recognition - utmost care about depth of sound sphere, experimental inclinations and focus on complex motoric aspect
of the rhythmical base. This collection of music from Recognition's first five years, surprising for its freshness and sheer
impetus, is a must for all fans of Jacek Sienkiewicz and Polish electronic music of the turn of the 20th and 21st centuries.
In connection with publication of yet-unheard tracks, Jacek shares another slice of yet-unknown artistic vision,
connecting sound with other media such as image, light and movement. RECOGNITION XX - audio-video performance
- comes out in summer as a result of this retrospective look.
