• RAFAL KOLACKI - 'Mektoub CD

With "Mektoub", Rafal Kolacki (HATI, Mammoth Ulthana, Molok Mun) combines his musical experiences to create an extraordinary radio play based on drone music, field recordings and short fragments of texts by Paul Bowles.

"Mektoub. 1001 Nights" by Bowles is a production by Kolacki inspired by this charismatic traveller, composer, writer and icon of individualism. This incorrigible emigrant, escaping almost all cultural and artistic schemes, became an inspiration for the musician to record an album, which is the result of a record of Bowles' journey to Tangier.

Kolacki records the streets, the market, the praying muezzins, the city where he lived author of "The Sheltering Sky" worked creatively. Intertwining the field recordings, he adds his drone music compositions, selects Bowles's texts referring to the culture of the Moroccans and other notes from Tangier. Thanks to this, you can also hear some interesting, almost poetic sentences, perfectly describing the world presented by the recordings used on this album.
