Orkiestra Ósmego Dnia / Jan A. P. Kaczmarek - Muzyka na koniec


[1982]
When psychedelic and ambient meet in an apocalyptic folk based extravaganza. It's unbelievable that this LP isn't a massive cult album in avant/psych folk or new age-y ambient circles because this pioneering work is a masterstroke of atmospheric ethno-psychedelia. 

An orchestra of two Polish men Grzegorz Banaszakon on guitars and Jan A P Kaczmarek playing a zither (Fidola Fishera), Synthesiser, piano, flute, recorder, vocals and percussion

Muzyka na koniec I think translates as Music For The End. A totally compelling cosmic-pagan jam that's mysterious, mystical and sometimes unsettling. One of the great unknown and unconventional records of its ilk, this has surprisingly never been issued on cd or had a reissue since the 80s. 

Doesn't get better than this.
