New Century Classics was formed in Krakow, Poland in march 2006 (though adding their final member and fine-tuning their sound in september-october 2006) by a group of friends and refugees from various parts of the world, centered around a mutual love of good music and the desire to fill their time and their hands with as many instruments as possible.

The band consists of two poles, a polish-american and a polish-canadian hybrid, and an italian who’s decent at banging on things with sticks.

Always experimenting, new century classics is constantly acquiring new sounds and new instruments (when they can afford it) in an effort to transform the polish music scene for the better.

NCC’s first full-length album, Natural Process, was released on November 23rd, 2009, and is available as a free digital download or pay as what you want. Coz any contribution will be highly appreciated. Physical copies are sold out for the moment.

[me]Thx u, Anna for sharing this beautiful music :)

So Quiet is the music project of Tomasz Bień, a young Polish architect and graphic designer, who is also part of the duo At Home. So Quiet supported some Polish bands, such as Pustki and Old Time Radio and the Canadian act Ragni. He appeared as a guest musician on the second Old Time Radio record. In November 2006, he founded Home.Pop.Rec: a small independent lo-fi label, whose second release was At Home’s album.

At the beginning of 2007, So Quiet’s debut appeared on the Spanish Error Lo-Fi Recordings. At the source of these first tracks lies his fascination with the sound of Rhodes Piano and Wurlitzer.
His new material „Summer and Winter” consists more acoustic sounds, with delicate touch of minimal electronic music, clikcs, noises… Only the name is telling us so much: it’s quietly, ease, lirycally. This is the music that strikes in open hearts, and it’s only a pity, that the record is not 80 minutes long…, but you can always use the „repeat” button.
