Piotr Mełech and Wojtek Kurek have been a duo for over 7 years. They played dozens of concerts together, also in larger ensembles. They debuted with the album 'Split Here' (Antenna Non Grata), which referred to its jazz roots and free improv. Their second album 'Walk Thru' explores trance-like, motor rhythms and looped melodies of oriental provenance. Together they create a compact, forward-moving tissue with a well-established and clear structure. They draw from tradition and improvised music. Mełech's bass and soprano clarinets perfectly share the space with Kurek's short-sounding, sometimes muted, drum set. The album is characterized by minimalism and mindfulness, and the concerts are enriched by the context of the place, which allows the musicians to reinterpret the music in relation to the space.
