More Info

It is hard to imagine the history of Polish industrial scene without noticing the activities of GENETIC TRANSMISSION – a project that might be considered legendary or having a cult status among quite a few, and the one that certainly has left a lot of its influence on the activity of many other artists in our country, and also inspired others to the activities in the field of urban, post-industrial music. The history of Genetic Transmission began when Tomasz Twardawa closed his earlier incarnations, working alone or in groups Zilch, Ładne Kwiatki, Godzilla. Although each of these groups left behind many interesting sessions, released earlier on tapes and CDRs, we have undertaken the release of the most important albums of the project Genetic Transmission, as the most active one of Tomasz Twardawa, and thus the richest part of his discography.

As the first one in GT Archive Series, we release the debut material entitled simply “Genetic Transmission” released earlier on an OBUH tape in 1997.
Now enriched and mastered by Tomasz Twardawa. It has been 20 years since its first release, but the recordings of sonic search still sound fresh and intriguing. We will find here compositions kept in the characteristic style of GT: harsh, metallic sounds, a mechanical structure, brut collages created using only analog sources and recorded in exactly the same manner – without the use of computers. In these dense structures, the artist concluded his entire manifesto, a declaration of his own research which has been developed consistently through his next sessions. “Genetic Transmission 1” is the starting point of your adventure with this project.

This reissue is strictly limited to 200 copies.
