Endless: Music for Performers
**300 copies** Since 2016, Wojciech Puś has been developing Endless, a sensual architecture of images, light, and sound that serves as a base structure for a poetic essay, a dream about identities in process. The music result is a fascinating electronic masterpiece showcasing his talent as a performer and producer creating his own unique universe. This works sound very ancient and probably very alien as well. This is music of hope, love, despair and sadness and probably all at the same time.
