Kurek is mainly known for his breakcore works, created together with Marcin Stefanski, in the duo named Slepcy &#8211; also published by Cock Rock Disco. &#8216;Lectures&#8217; is both close to and very far away from those projects (I&#8217;m thinking for example, of a piece like &#8220;With Charles Bukowski On The Ride&#8221;). There is still the same abstract, reactive and hyper-clear organisation, but this time they cite other, equally refined works, thanks to very different acoustic recordings, inspired by Cornelius Cardew, a seminal experimental composer and forerunner &#8211; with his Scratch Orchestra (1969) &#8211; of decidedly unconventional fusions. He also adds interesting fragments taken from conferences and performances of the English composer, mixing everything in an enigmatic editing, philologically careful and very involving. <em>Aurelio Cianciotta<\/em><\/p>\n<p>via <a href=\"http:\/\/www.neural.it\/sound\/2010\/01\/piotr_kurek_lectures.phtml\">Neural<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tangled instrumental sequences, dense and fascinating, are improvised by Piotr Kurek, a Polish producer and electronic musician who now lives in Portugal.
