The next album published by Kilogram - "Noc" by duo Trzaska-Wirkus is also in a way related to literature. It is music to theatre performance based on Andrzej Stasiuk's drama under the same title. The German premiere of the performance was welcomed with standing ovation. Before we start listening - as it was in the case of previous album - the tasteful cover draws attention. Its wove paper will make all musical fetishists feel as if they were in heaven; the label aims its offer at gourmets and connoisseurs. The actual content of the album also evokes positive esthetic impressions. It captivates with subdued atmosphere with Trzaska in the foreground. Wirkus seems to stay a little bit in the background, generating rustling, dark textures in which metallic but subtle squeaks and murmurs glitter just like stars in the sky. In the aura of such thick atmosphere sound short phrases of wind instruments - bass clarinet, alt saxophone, flute and harmonica. All of this creates enchanting, really nocturnal atmosphere.
