The musicians, who know each other for years (they cooperated in bands such as Horny Tres and SzaZeZe), played a spontaneous, improvised set. The sound influenced vision and space, vibrations, acoustic waves made the windows, walls, and even electronic devices in the house shake! Szamburski and Zemler treated it as an artistic value. They recorded sound wasn’t changed. The austerity and the emotions remained untouched.
