Concrete and Clay

Mike Hansen from Canada and Tomasz Krakowiak from Poland have been involved with improvised music for a decade, collaborating and releasing outstanding works with international artists such as John Butcher, Kaffe Matthews, John Oswald, Otomo Yoshihide, Aoki Onda and many more.

For frozenelephantsmusic.com they have selected various unplugged and improvised works, a tremendous collection of raw and haunting compositions made from record-player (Hansen) and percussion (Krakowiak) only. The demanding recordings of The Confines of Power combine crackling ruins of sound, concrete noise-incidents, sine feedbacks, intimate close-ups and detailed ideas of scale and movement. Hansen has already been part of the Connected Dots. Connected Ideas compilation released in March 2007.
