India Czajkowska "Diary of Earth"

 

The work of India Czajkowska has always filled the right bits both in experimental and independent landscape of Polish music as well as the label of independent musicians who work tirelessly on comissions to create soundtracks and works for art projects.

Naturally musically eloquent and skilled she has always been quite versatile and used her best weapons of lyrical approach towards her main two instruments being piano and voice blended harmoniously with electronic experiments and wide array of collaborators that enriched her music.

This time she is coming back with self-released album that can open back a new door. Created during the pandemic lockdown it feels like a comeback to basics. Tastefully composed in a form of a musical journal (hence the title) it lives by its name helping to grasp this poetic aspect that is always present in her work but at the same time shows how mature and organised artists she is. 

With help of Jacek Mielcarek on saxophone she blends a classical approach of the piano themes that builds the main facade of the ambience on the album and the electronics.

This could easily be a nice introduction to music that personifies some distant and not-so-obvious feminine aspect of musical quality. But it's too elusive, too genuine to be put in such narrow frames.

Dream on....
