It consists of five songs that place themselves somewhere between Hawkwind's drug-induced voyages and Voivod's twisted, sometimes atonal mastery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"Superluminal\" sums up a pretty long and intensive period in Ampacity's history. We managed to compose the album based on various threads. This time we decided to ignore the vocals and thanks to this decision we were left with a lot of space for other sounds. One thing we can be sure of: \"Superluminal\" will definitely stimulate your imagination - explain the band.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe album was created during rehearsals, based on improvisations. This method influenced the way the songs were recorded later on, which is live in Radio Gdańsk studio. - We are far from being perfectionists - our music is supposed to be alive and convincing, not automated and pitch-perfect. The most important thing is how it sounds live.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAmpacity is already recognized by the use of sci-fi imagery and this is also true to \"Superluminal\". - We took some effort to recreate (especially when speaking of keyboards and other sound effects) the atmosphere of old science-fiction movie soundtracks. But you need to keep in mind that this genre serves only as an aesthetic signpost in our case. We don't intend to compose a genre-based music. It's just an inspiration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- The last 3 years have been very intensive for the band. It changed us as people and musicians. We feel that Ampacity is now a one living and breathing being that gives us more comfort to perform live as a band. It's an evolution, not a revolution.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Instant Classic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56922825294206,"sku":"CLASSIC038CD","price":9.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0962\/4161\/5230\/files\/AMPACITY_SUPER_cccd1189-d59d-4e8a-9995-cef59183e5ad.jpg?v=1771538538"},{"product_id":"ampacity-the-sum-of-all-flaws-cd","title":"Ampacity - The Sum of All Flaws CD","description":"\u003cp\u003e\"The Sum of All Flaws\" is the title of a new EP from Ampacity – an improvising psychedelic band from Poland. Consisting of three largely instrumental tracks, the record comes out on 30th November 2016 via Instant Classic label.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis release marks the end of an era in band's history – it's a farewell to Ampacity's keyboard player Marek Kostecki. \"This is also very likely the last album recorded in this instrumental setting\", says guitarist Piotr Paciorkowski. \"We're not 100% sure if we'll go on without the addition of keys but we would like to try discovering new sounds as a four-piece\", he adds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's been only a year since Ampacity released their sophomore album \"Superluminal\" (Instant Classic 2015) which seems a novelty for the band that kept us waiting much longer after their debut \"Encounter One\" (Nasiono Records 2013). \"This EP differs from our previous recordings, mainly due to the fact that two tracks were composed at home and finished during the rehearsals\", recalls Paciorkowski. \"The third one was constructed around one riff and completed in the studio later. This time we decided to limit the improvisational aspect of our music that somehow became our trademark\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContrary to previous (mostly instrumental) recordings, the title track has vocal parts performed by guitarist Jan Galbas. \"Based on a natural will to learn about mystical and metaphysical aspects of what we call reality, I am asking some questions that most probably will remain unanswered\", says Galbas. \"Trapped in a cage of time, consciousness seeks the primary sense of existence\", he adds.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Instant Classic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56922833682814,"sku":"CLASSIC053CD","price":9.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0962\/4161\/5230\/files\/AMPACITY_tHE_SUN_OF_fLOWS.jpg?v=1771536593"}],"url":"https:\/\/8merch.shop\/collections\/ampacity.oembed","provider":"8Merch Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
