about

Released as 100 3'' CDrs attached to hand numbered postcard on Hibernate Recordings (sold out).


Szymon Kaliski obviously choose the direction of more abstraction, abandoning more and more linearity (...) using contemplation in order to achieve a certain dissolution of feelings. He's making on "For Isolated Recollections" an impressive step forward and reaches a real achievement in a delimited area.
-- Derives

"For Isolated Recollections" consists of four delicate piano-led pieces which are peppered with glitches, static and found sounds. (...) Kaliski seems to take joy in studying the beauty in each individual sound; the results speak for themselves.
-- Fluid Radio

"For Isolated Recollections" possesses strong senses of antiquity and intimacy. Reverb-laden piano plays into the haziness of memories while the field recordings lend the music a sense of place, bringing to mind the sound of leafing through a book or walking across an icy field.
-- Tokafi

Kaliski's considered form of pure ambient is true to its word. His use of the ambience of the room, microphone noise and other living elements gives these pieces an intimacy and atmosphere that is both touching and impressive. "For Isolated Recollections" treds similar lines to that of last years' full length, but somehow excentuates the concepts by reducing what is there to an absolute minimum.
