a guy we know from the detroit scene, DEREK MICHAEL went to play some shows in poland the summer of 2002 - where he also acquired a stack of hand written cd-r demos from the promoters and local producers. we had just hooked up with KERO for his release and he had also managed to get his hands on this stack of cd demos, which he in turn passed on to us. one thing that was shocking and widely apparent was the diversity of styles among the different cds from this polish scene, and even within the producers track selections themselves. techno, idm, gabber, drum and bass. we was diggin it. to make a point out of this weak attempt to tell a story - there was one cd that was absolutely amazing. fresh ideas, excellent production and a tendency to blow up in the middle of a track. we had to know who this I:GOR person was. immediately.
eventually we got in touch with igor wilkonsky from kielce poland - one hell of a thuglife place we're told, and a new artist was added to the lineup. producer, promoter, pimp style playboy, I:GOR's about it proper. his first release on LOW RES (015) 'znak zapytania' is already a milestone in the catalog, and future efforts are imminent. also has slamming releases on HANGARS LIQUIDE and M-TRONIC and rumors of appearances on the polish MTV network with a hip-hop side project.
