Janusz Jurga - Hypnowald (2019) EN

Recently on the blog came back Giriu Dvasios with his mixture of dub and folk music and now it's time for his Polish (and way darker) counterpart, new album by Janusz Jurga called Hypnowald.

Actually the artist has his own name for the music he makes - ambient forest techno. And it's very much accurate. Sampled bird hooting, fire cracking and generally unsettling but natural noises of the night forest come forth during the whole album. Four pieces that create a festival of atmospheric and aesthetically pleasing electronic music lined with some limbs-moving basses. Perhaps there's not much of the traditional folk music here (instrumentally and vocally speaking) but it's enough to listen to the third track on the album and get into the folk interpretation of the world that it involves. And finally the more traditional folk is also present in the last song with its ethno-singing. Good stuff.

Hypnowald costs 3 EUR.
