13. Fisz Emade Tworzywo – Dust (feat. Justyna Święs)

This post is also available in German Polish Czech Belarusian

The Polish countryside – hard work on the farm, a life with animals and the catholic church. But this soundtrack has almost nothing in common with Polish folk music. Instead, it sounds more like some of the new Polish electro-pop bands like Kamp ((part of the musical adventcalendar 2013) and The Dumplings. The three heroes of this video live in this (perhaps) sleepy part of Poland, but their passion belongs to Electro-Dance and their stage is the dancefloor of their village disco.

The brothers Fisz on the microphone (officially Bartosz Waglewski) and Emade (officially Piotr Waglewski), as soundmaster responsible for the music, rock the Polish music scene since the late Nineties. They started, like many others, in the high-rise slabs of their hometown Warsaw with “Polski Rap” in their formation RHX (to check out their sound, click here). Ten albums later the new album “Mamut” was released.

Whereas the album from 2012 was a tribute to the Hip-Hop of the Nineties, this album is a mix of rock and blues, where Fisz almost sounds as his father, the rock and folk singer Wojciech Waglewski, and the electropop currently very popular in Poland. In „Pył“ (dust), the first song of the album, the electronic music is in focus, highlighted by the participation of Justyna Święs from The Dumplings.

The MAK-team wishes you a lovely Saturday, listening to and enjoying this song – and maybe you’ll find a dancefloor with, or without, a disco ball, so you can put on your dancing shoes.

Dust

It is coming closer
The future is sure
She will turn our bodies to cosmic dust
We’re standing on the way
A way towards nowhere
That can almost not be seen, because of the fog
Dance, dance, move your feet
Among the friends and with mirror balls
On the way towards nowhere the world is in motion
Don’t forget the shapes and colours
We won’t become younger
We’re on the way
Don’t stay and sit, don’t stand around as a pole
We’re pacing proudly
Towards the sun
On the way to illusions and dreams

Dance, dance, move your feet
Among the friends and with mirror balls
On the way towards nowhere the world is in motion
Don’t forget the shapes and colours
It is coming closer
The future is sure
She will turn our bodies to cosmic dust
We’re standing on the way
We desire luck
Damn it! We desire it
Perhaps god
Has forgotten us
Sleeps somewhere silent in the corner
Come to me
I will feel
Your smell and shape
Call the lawyers
And the Department for Emotions
And these, that recognize a meaning
We are pacing proudly
Like any zombie
I have no clue where to
Come to term with destiny

Lyrics: Bartek Waglewski (Fisz)
