Paragka presents an evening with odd, hypnotic, sophisticated and primitive sound business featuring Strzał W Kolano (Wrocław, Poland), Sheik Anorak (Gothenburg, Sweden), Totkind and Tzitzifrikia from Athens…Greece!?
The event will be hosted at P6/entonoLab by Vago Tedosio. 5th of December. Donation box. Come through and dig the sound!
Strzał W Kolano (translation: A shot in the knee) is a solo project of Jakub Majchrzak, a restless musician engaged with Wrocław’s DIY scene for the past two decades as a member of influential and idiosyncratic groups like Kurws, Przepych and others. Last year he composed as Strzał W Kolano an album together with tsev. Strzał W Kolano uses microtuned and amplified classical guitar to execute his compositions. Conceptually, he's consumed with tinkering with structures that are unstable, yet necessary and unattainable, at once controllable and uncontrollable. While composing is for him a method of tracing the paradoxes of a composition, improvisation serves to test its strength, is a shaking of the structure, an act of self-vandalism on the grammar of the piece, which is expanded over time. In defense of the digressive nature of the course of music-making.

Sheik Anorak is the one man band led by (also restless) French multi-instrumentalist Frank Garcia who is currently located in Gothenburg, Sweden. Sheik Anorak has been lately focusing on repetitive drumming, noise and electronics but his explorations and influences have so far seen no boundaries in terms of musical style, with some of them being indie pop, black metal, free jazz, no wave and krautrock. For this occasion, expect noisy hypnotic drumming and electronic sounds.

Tzitzifrikia is the duet that uses guitar, voice, words, drums, pans, field recordings and loops to deliver vulnerable and personal stories and impressions in the form of songs, rhythms and texture.
Mom and Dad of Paragka, organising shows and bringing stray artists together since 2018. Come and listen to find a place where melancholy, tension and beauty coexist peacefully.

Totkind is ½ of industrial machine-driven noise rock duo Tote Kinder. He recently shared his angry, brave, noisy first album Bazosakoules. This time he will bring only his resonator guitar to play some noise folk.
