On November 5 (Saturday), Crime & The City Solution, Barry Adamson and Leftfield will perform. Polish performers join this line-up! The Wytwórnia stage will feature: debuting Ania Leon, the poetic duo Anieli and the mysterious Bokka.
Bokka
They are one of the most amazing phenomena on the Polish scene, not only because it is not known who they are. The faces hidden under the masks are just an introduction to the extraordinary story titled Bokka. Story about a band that did not need names and surnames to create an identity that would be unique not only on the domestic market. They have released four well-received albums, and two nominations for Fryderyk, and their work has been recommended by many foreign media. In 2022, Bokka returns in a completely new version, presenting the mysterious and apocalyptic album “Blood Moon”. The album, based on a film script, takes the listener on a fictional journey to the end of the world.
Anieli
The duo’s album “Blask” is a mature debut. It could not be otherwise, since the Anieli duo consists of musicians whose songs have been sung by all of Poland for years. Joanna Prykowska is the extraordinary voice of Firebirds, a band that was popular in the 90s, among others thanks to the song “Harry”. Paweł Krawczyk wrote music for all Hey albums in the 21st century. Anieli duo opens a new chapter in their musical lives. “Blask” consists of ten atmospheric songs with very personal, feminine lyrics by Joanna. The album is promoted by singles: “Jaśniejąca” (guest appearance Katarzyna Nosowska) – a story about friendship; “Niemiłość” – about loneliness in a golden cage; “Przesilenie” – a summer hymn about independence and a noir love story – “Nie ruszaj się”.
Ania Leon
She is a young debutante who paves the dark pop trails in Poland. Her dark, electronic sounds and intriguing lyrics written in Polish have already attracted the attention of many music listeners and journalists. In June 2022, the artist’s first album – “Łezki” was released. The album was promoted by well-received singles: “Tańcz”, “Chemistry” and “Przypadki”. Ania is inspired by such artists as: Banks, Billie Eilish, Lorde and Sevdaliza. She creates music with Arkadiusz Kopera (known for his collaboration with, among others, Daria Zawiałow, Sanah, Orkiestra Męskiego Grania) and Mariusz Obijalski (Waglewski Fisz Emade, Albo Inaczej project). The artist gained her first skills in Los Angeles – studying Vocal Performance at the Musicians Institute College of Contemporary Music. She graduated from the school with honors.
These Polish performers will appear on November 5 at the Soundedit International Festival Of Music Producers And Sound Designers in Łódź. On that day, the world-famous artists will also play at the Wytwórnia.
Crime & The City Solution
A band, or rather a collective of musicians who come from Australia, Great Britain and Germany. Critics describe their musical propositions as alternative and post-punk.
Barry Adamson
The trade press, from Rolling Stone to Record Collector, writes about him and his work in superlatives. He himself focuses on working in the studio and composing. He began his solo career after working with Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds for three years. During Soundedit, the artist will receive the “Man with a Golden Ear” statuette, awarded in recognition of “pioneering achievements in the field of music production”.
Leftfield
Scott Kirkland, the musician of the respected The Crystal Method, stated that Leftfield is “the best electronic music group, period.” Leftfield is a duo founded by musicians and producers Paul Daley and Neil Barnes. They are considered pioneers of such music genres as intelligent dance music and progressive house. This December a new album will be released, entitled “This Is What We Do”. On Soundedit, before the official premiere, you will be able to listen to new material.
In 2022, the Soundedit International Festival Of Music Producers And Sound Designers will be held on November 3-5 in Łódź. Crime & The City Solution, Barry Adamson, Leftfield, Ania Leon, Anieli and Bokka will perform on Saturday, November 5 at 19:00 at Klub Wytwórnia (ul. Łąkowa 29).
