le visage

Le Visage is a polish project, started in 2006. The name comes from one of Ingmar Bergman's movies - "Ansikte" (which means "le visage" in French, and "face" in english). At the moment, Le Visage is a one-man project. Radek Krzyzanowski, composer and producer of Le Visage music, plays on a few instruments (guitar, bass guitar, keys, percussions, etc) and takes a command of all stages of a project, from songwriting to final mix. However, in the future he hopes to collaborate with other musicians. His music can be described as an electronic cocktail of IDM and downtempo crossover, with a little addition of click'n'cuts and ambient thrown in as well. Recently, live instruments such as guitar, bass and piano have become more prominent in his music as well. Le Visage has only one official release - "Persona" EP for Chill-label (2006). He took part also in two “various artists” projects for the same label (chill.01 and "Solarystyka", a tribute album to Stanislaw Lem) and one for Warsaw Electronic Festival (“Laptops make history - for future compilation”). Le Visage has also played a few gigs, the most important of which were on the 4th anniversary of Nowamuzyka.pl, as a support for Chris Clark, broadcast for Future Sessions on BIS Polskie Radio and live act on Warsaw Electronic Festival 2007. Radek also engages himself in some other musical activities - productional and educational. On february 2007, he had an occasion to produce debut album of Tres B - dutch indie pop-rock band. Recording session took place in Maastricht, in band's homestudio. The result of two weeks of recording (in Maastricht) and one month of mixing and mastering (in his studio in Poland) is „Scylla and Charybdis”, which was released in august. In july 2007, he had a honour of organizing Ableton Live workshop for begginers and advance users, during Reporter Nowa Muzyka Festival. Read more on Last.fm.
