smingus black diamonds lp, 2014

analog sound from wolimierz. indie rock meets baroque organ.

"black diamonds" is the debut album by smingus, presenting a bold fusion of indie rock, art rock, and minimal techno. this is music full of contrasts, recorded in march 2013 at saraswati studios in wolimierz, poland.

what distinguishes this record is the production method. the material was recorded using vintage gear and analog instruments. the sonic centerpiece for much of the album is a baroque organ, giving the whole project a unique, slightly dark character. mateusz majewski was responsible for mixing, mastering, and synthesizer parts. a great choice for seekers of unique sounds on the alternative scene.
