Gary Gwadera feat. Copy Corpo - II. Battle („kasowanie”) / POINT#61 YouTube video by POINTLESS GEOMETRY

The clash of this archaic, distinctly Polish form with the freedom of the underground, electronic sound from the Black suburbs of Chicago seemed to aesthetically hit the perfect spot.

Gary Gwadery / Muzyka / dwutygodnik.com Wrażliwość i wyobraźnię Gwadera ujawnia w pełni w swojej działalności solowej. I to za jej sprawą rok 2024 w kategorii perkusja z pewnością należał do niego

@garygwadera.bsky.social
"muzyka na perkusję solo może być przebojowa, może być balsamem na uszy po chłoście komercyjną anteną w galerii handlowej. [...] Gwadera wszedł na parnas naszych rodzimych artystów perkusji, takich jak Hubert Zemler

"I use "dżaz" here, meaning a rural drum setup. On top layer electronic samples and cymbals. Five vintage Polish drum pads from the late '80s by LEM, and a Roland SPD-SX drum sampler, which features nine pads and two external triggers for the electronic kick and snare." Gary Gwadera
