Twines
by Karrot 24 października, 2024Twenty years ago, a new chapter unfolded in the story of the Warsaw Village Band, thanks to the arrival of our visionary producer and sound engineer – Mario Activator. He embarked on a mission to enrich our sound by twisting, blending, and intertwining the tradition with a fresh wave of influences from various genres. His goal? To ensure that our music never becomes just a nostalgic echo of the past, but evolves into a vibrant, groovy force that honours our roots while boldly exploring new territories.
We hesitated, he persisted. We’ll be honest—embracing the electronic arpeggios, and deep bass wasn’t exactly in our comfort zone but as time passed, we had to admit… he was absolutely right! A solid rhythmic foundation and a touch of electronics have infused our music with an entirely new energy.
So, what’s the next step in this musical journey? We’re thrilled to present our latest album, „Twines” where the Warsaw Village Band is joined by three incredible musicians, whom we fondly call BASSałyki. This record is a dazzling fusion of British-Caribbean flair and our beloved traditional sound. It’s a dynamic, groove-packed journey.
We invite you to listen, contemplate, dance, and let the music take you wherever it feels right. We hope you’ll feel this riddim too!
