PIOTR KUREK HEAT CRNICA 068~2012

Piotr Kureks Heat was originally released in December 2011 as a limited edition cassette by Digitalis LTD. Sold out shortly after the original release date, Crnica is now proud to release it in digital format, as part of the Unlimited Series of releases. Most of the sounds in Heat originate from various exotic records, from documentary movies or archives, or were recorded in studio using vintage organs, electric piano and synthesizers. Starting from an original idea of creating a specific music concrte album deeply rooted in archival nature, Heat emerged as a rich organ-infused tropicalia where everything was blurred in greenish-brown and sultry air.
