Improvisations recorded on the MID_EVIL album do not aspire to reconstruct the past. However, its ghost hauntingly looms over the whole project referring - if only by bone scraping sounds transmuting into the noise of prepared gramophone records - to sonic archaeology and the phantasms concerning the era of phonographic breakthrough. This material touches on issues concerning continuity in history and tradition, recording sounds and tones, as well as musical structures and practices.These are all current, valid topics - also in the field of contemporary improvised music, with its constant tendency towards stable forms and studied gestures. In fact, history and memory never cease to challenge real improvisation - Antoni Michnik
