Brunette Models is a Polish-Cypriot musical project for experimental electronic music and sound sculpture, in the style of ambient music, atmospheric, hesychasm, deep listening music, and is one of a pioneer of this kind of music in Poland, although outside the media and without publicity. [1] [2] [3]

Piotr Krzyżanowski

Brunette Models is the alter ego of the artist Piotr Krzyzanowski, who was born (1974) and grew up in Toruń (Poland). He graduated from the Faculty of Philosophy ( Nicolaus Copernicus University in Toruń). [1] He was involved in projects for the Warsaw Electronic Festival (WEF) [4] and Contemporary Electronic Soundscapes (CES). [5] He also was a journalist of the „Estrada i Studio” magazine. [6] Krzyzanowski is active in music production ( Agnes de Venice, Xenia Agapene) and the implementation of sound, too. He performed live at the International Ambient Festival in Gorlice, 15 July 2004 [7] [8] [9] and many more. The music of Brunette Models has been played by radio stations. [10] In August 2009 a video-clip by Polish multimedia-artist Joanna Cholascinska was released with a track from the „Apsychastenia” album. [11] Krzyzanowski designed and constructed hardware and software for high-resolution recording ( Digital eXtreme Definition) on a 24-bit/352.8 kHz workstation. [12] Krzyzanowski founded the Cypriot label Anadyomene' Secret Records. After 10 years this site was closed by a massive hacker attack. From 2018 April, the web-portal has been made fully working again.

Πρόβατοφωνή

Since 2018, Brunette Models as Ερημίτης Κατώτερος ( Eremites Katoteros) alias, creates with Xenia Agapene a musical duet named Πρόβατοφωνή ( Provatofoni).

Musical development

A characteristic of Brunette Models music is that it homes in on the dominant tone color, as a fundamental aesthetic value, which is a trait of synesthetes. For the past few years he has not officially published pressed albums. [13] He withdrew from the world and focused on music only, without promotion, A&R, PR and without even connection to the internet. In his artistic manifesto [14] he motivated this asceticism, that today's world looks more at the name of the composer, than at the music. BM thinks it is not a good. In music he sees mysticism as a possible prayer to God, a kind of hesychasm. [15] [16]
