Szymon was running the Trans-Bałtyk radio show on Polish community radio Kapitał (radiokapital.pl) in 2020 and 2021, presenting Danish underground music. This is a mixtape sailing the opposite direction – new Polish experimental music from a fruitful 2022 for Copenhagen's The Lake Radio. A diverse, multi-aesthetic mixtape showcasing artists released on home-labels such as Pointless Geometry, Szara Reneta, Pawlacz Perski, Howard Records, Coastline Northern Cuts, Mondoj, Gustaff Records or 𝓰𝓵𝓪𝓶𝓸𝓾𝓻.𝓁𝒶𝒷𝑒𝓁, as well as Poles put out by foreign ones: Warm Winters Ltd., Superpang, Digital in Berlin and MAL Recordings. The exceptional Tomasz Stańko Quintet's 50 year-old live recording has been dug out from the Radio Bremen archives by Astigmatic Records to be released only last year. Still undoubtedly fresh! Also witness a direct Polish-Danish connection thanks to a duo colab of Antonina Nowacka & Sofie Birch.
