Let’s
Make Better Mistakes Tomorrow is the third full-length CD
from the young Polish musician Tomasz Bednarcyzk. Following Summer
Feelings and Painting Sky Together (Room40), Bednarczyk naturally
continues his process of utilizing mainly treated piano and guitar
to create fragile, lingering structures that hover around only
a few fundamental notes.
Let’s Make Better Mistakes Tomorrow is divided
into two sections, split down the middle by “The Sketch,”
which was written in cooperation with Adrian Klumpes (Triosk).
The first half of the album floats like a pellucid veil: higher
frequency whispers, surface noise and glassy textures create light,
calm drones, and noticable bass tones aren’t heard for nearly
20 minutes. “The Sketch” serves as a turning point,
a snap from light to dark; field recordings of children alongside
Klumpes’ punctuated piano contrast sharply with the linearity
of the surrounding works. The listener is then presented with
the final four pieces, which descend into deeper territory. Darkness
and murky frequencies prevail, and the surfaces become more distressed
and stormy, finally submerging to “Night,” which closes
the album with its languid, sleepy bass loop that lulls away to
silence.
