"Nights Are Numbered" LP forms a world of apparent apocalyptic ambience of sounds which are produced mainly with conventional instruments such as double bass, grand piano or accordion, however, located outside their classical use, but also with some contrasting, organic and archetypal objects such as bones or dried plants, amplified in studio conditions. This specific accord of dissonances coming from various sources shifts the listener into the realm of sonoric experiment [...] The rich, meticulously recorded studio session seems a reverse of the crude, almost primitive, lo fi production "Chapel Music", also available here, which shows you the duet’s versatility and deep musical insight." - Bocian Records
What makes "Nights Are Numbered" a special release is also the 'DELUXE EDITION' - first thirty copies of the Vinyl LP contain a photograph by Katarzyna Podpora reproduced and printed on a special eco corn paper. Each photograph in this series is unique, the reproductions are numbered by hand and signed by the artist. WE HAVE 1 COPY LEFT, it's 20 Euro.
