tsev // Strzał w Kolano
an improvised symposium of ancient music held in an electronic agora brought to you by: Strzał w Kolano (of Kurws, Przepych, Pustostany and Norymberga) on detuned guitar and tsev on microtuned synthesizer
They talk differently, they tune differently, what they share is what is unpresent in their music. They both explore the vast space in between the equal temperament tuning system. Strzał w Kolano within the quarter-tones of prepared classical guitar while Tsev switches between own microtonal systems on his minilogue xd synthesizer. A shared deviation from the rigour is rather unsolid bond but it came out to be distinctive while arming their common musical methodology. The two met in October 2024 to compose, perform and record what will come out in 2025 as their debut album. Strzał w Kolano (translated as Shot in the Knee) is a solo project of polish musician Jakub Majchrzak. Given 500 shows around the world and having 8 studio albums released he decided to try his hand as a solo artist. Although the prenatal stage of Strzał w Kolano marks the debut show in 2017, it woke up from coma after years to play some shows and release the debut cassette via Pointless Geometry in the end of 2024.
Tsev, on the other side, is a composer/multi-instrumentalist involved in various musical acts of the Athenian DIY scene, as well as releasing and performing music on his own. Since 2019 a conscious listener, researcher and performer of La Monte Young’s piece The Well-Tuned Piano (the piece “Tone Cloud” published as part of the dutch pandemic era project “No View, The Radio” run by West Den Haag was in fact dedicated to him).

Doskocz // Janssen
some more guitaristic shenanigans as conjured by Paweł Doskocz, however this time dequantized by Zdrój’s Sebastiaan Janssen’s drummeling

In 2024, he began collaborating with saxophonist Mateusz Rybicki, and in spring 2025 he debuted a new band, Rykoszét, co-founded with Hubert Kostkiewicz and Jakub Majchrzak (both formerly of Kurws).
