Secret Enigma
Boomkat Product Review:
Finders Keepers are at it again, this time unearthing more stunning material from Polish enigma Andrzej Korzynski, who the label introduced to many of us with the unmissable ‘Possession’ OST.
This bumper twenty-two-track collection fills in some of the gaps in his catalogue, and Finders Keepers have done the legwork, sweeping up tunes from lost master tapes and film reels. The main stylistic pointer here is Ennio Morricone, over the course of fifty minutes we hit on jazz, classical, experimental electronics, lounge, funk and plenty more. Somehow it all manages to slot together, coming across far more like a ‘proper’ album than its loose compilation status might have you thinking. We know there are plenty of horror soundtrack fiends out there, but ‘Secret Enigma’ should have even further reach, touching on the jaw-dropping early work of John Barry or even Trunk-cosigned Brit pioneer Basil Kirchin.
"Originally recorded in the best studios in Poland, Italy and France for experimental film, political allegories, lost television shows, sound libraries and radio - these tracks tapes and film reels until now. ‘Secret Enigma’ represents the first ever dedicated anthology of this great composer’s
work. Originally released exactly thirty years ago, Andrzej Korzynski’s unique experiments with jazz, pop, rock, orchestral and electronic music make his name synonymous with the most praised (Andrzej Wajda) and the most provocative (Andrzej Zuławski) Polish filmmakers (counting many more in between). As an early patron of the Polish New Wave and a key exponent of the development of conceptual Polish pop music his expansive portfolio has remained commercially unreleased and untravelled (like many of the original socialist era Polish made films) and has yet to find its deserved place next to the work of Ennio Morricone, François de Roubaix and John Barry.
Now enhanced by a renewed interest in vintage art house film and a subculture of open minded music collectors many Easter European artists, such as Krzysztof Komeda (Poland), Zdenek Liška (Czechoslovakia) and now Andrzej Korzynski, have finally begun to earn their place alongside their Central European peers. For lovers of film music and experimental pop, this debut anthology and appraisal of Korzynski’s work is long overdue, and stylistically, probably never more relevant."
