Danish sound artist Paw Grabowski completes his ambitious Percussive Works tetralogy with a volume that fundamentally reorients the project’s temporal axis. While Volumes 1-3 systematically excavated øjeRum’s private archives—retrieving and recontextualizing material from as far back as 1998. Vol. 4 leans its face toward the now.
This shift from archaeological to present-tense composition isn’t merely chronological but methodological. Where previous volumes reprocessed existing recordings through Grabowski’s current technical framework, Volume 4 documents real-time implementations of techniques developed across the series’ arc. The result is a beautifully made and elegant conclusion to this series. Out now on Opal.
