Dawno Temu - Solo project of Agnieszka Bykowska, Polish sound artist and producer. While balancing between ambient, drone and minimalist music, she creates unique sonic sceneries centered around layered synth waves with elements of electroacoustic. Having spent nine years in Bydgoszcz, PL she has crossed paths with the improv scene. Played numerous shows across Poland, including appearances at festivals. Her main sources of inspiration are the notion of time, spirituality and emotional corners of human nature.

SACRALIA is the second LP from Polish sound artist and producer Dawno Temu.

Living within the realms of fast-paced reality we're bypassing the essence of "being fully in the moment". While so much dependent on the notion of time itself, we're sharing a collective fantasy of making the time dependent on us - to pause it, outstretch it, turn it back in order to experience something once again. Dawno Temu approaches that concept with both severity and sensitivity in her compositional process.

Each of six tracks on the album is like a ceremonial object for the performative aspect of careful observation that finds its fulfillment in rapture and emotionality. These objects in their historical meaning have been utilized as a means for establishing or maintaining communication between the sacred (the transcendent, or supernatural) and the profane (the secular, cause and effect). Rather than trying to fit a doctrine Dawno Temu celebrates subjective experience of the individual, points in time and space that are carrying an idiosyncratic, empirical gesture with them: light reflections, moments of pause, sources of pleasure - which are actually common experiences, bound with human nature - and sonically reinterprets them as manifestations of “the sacred” among “the profane”.

The sound of SACRALIA is raw and ascetic; euphoric, but full of reverie. Balancing between wide and dense, Dawno Temu carves her own path in drone and minimalist music. Meditative repetitiveness of structures, slowly evolving and dissolving form the frame of SACRALIA which leaves a room for serenity and reflection in both: herself and the listener. Improv strings ensemble, featuring guest appearance of Antonina Car and Joanna Szczęsnowicz (jablkagruszki) in EVERY PAUSE STRIVES FOR ADMIRANCE, together with synthesizer mimic chanting of a litany where all instruments gently pass each other by and only occasionally synchronize to speak with one voice. In her work process on SACRALIA, Dawno Temu focused on conjuring up certain feelings during long and immersive recording sessions with two synthesizers. This way, slowly forming unique shapes and imagery, she developed a somewhat emotional bond with the instruments, reminding of Éliane Radigue and her composing approac.

Composed and recorded by Dawno Temu (Agnieszka Bykowska) between 2022/2023 in Wrocław and Poznań
Track EVERY PAUSE STRIVES FOR ADMIRANCE composed and recorded by Dawno Temu (synthesizer), Antonina Car (improvisation on violin, baritone violin, cello), and Joanna Szczęsnowicz (improvisation on violin)
