TEXTURA
...i w pewnym memencie przyszla taka chwila w której nasze ciala(tzn ciala sluchaczy) prasniete na siedziskach pozostaly nieruchome- niektore z rozdziawionymi gebami, z oczyma zamknietymi lub otwartymi; niektore zamarle z dlonmi na kuflu ktorego zawartosc zostawala oprozniona dopiero pozniej, kiedy wszystko sie skonczylo . W tej wlasnie chwili gral Szalanski. Zdawac by sie moglo ze to dla niego proste i oczywiste; ujmowal przciez wszystkie nasze mysli i zaglowal nimi, czasem jak bezlitosny urwis- piszczal, krzyczal; czasem niby medrzec -snul opowiesci. I kiedy byl tuz pod sufitem i zdawac by sie moglo ze jest okrutny z tym czerwonum nabrzmialym lbem i wielka zakrecona blaszana rura wystajaca z tego lba, poszturchiwany i popedzany przez szatanskiego perkusiste; wtedy wlasnie... przez piski i cisze zabral nasze mysli umieszczajac je w wymiarze o ktorym nigy sie nie zapomina, bo przeciez jeszcze dlugo...; kiedy mysli wrocily do naszych organizmow dlugo slyszelismy ten magiczny glos z blaszanej zakreconej rury...

Thanks so much for the add–and your friendship. We enjoyed your music very much. Thanks for sharing it with all of us. It's a pleasure having you among our friends!
We hope you and your friends enjoy our music, too. We've just added four new compositions and two new blogs about Umano.
We wake up every morning and play the music of the new MySpace friends who have arrived at our site during the night. It occurred to us that these friends (you are among them) are almost universally positive, whether they be novices or legends, and without regard to their station in life or the country they occupy.
It also occurred to us that we couldn’t hold a verbal conversation with most of these friends, but we have bridged that gap by expressing our art honestly with each other.
We all have been filling the world with our music and art, in the hope that our messages of love and human understanding will have an impact on the world at large.
What a gift and what an opportunity we have received from this technology!
HI! I'm glad I found you! I hope you are my new fan as much as a friend! Thank you for taking your time and listening to my music! Come back at check out the RaceCar remixes! coming soon!
