Makaruk - Electronic Music Artist | Multimedia Producer

Thanks for joining me in the journey to self-discovery through the art of modern electronic music which brings us richness and freedom wherever we go.

I have been performing electronic music on stage, using various hardware and software instruments since 2002. I was lucky enough to be invited to play in many corners of the world, and perform in the most notable and the wildest places. From the Chinese jungle through the Ukrainian opera to the coolest electronic music festivals in Europe, people always listened to my concerts without ever knowing what to expect.

This lack of expectations and being ready for surprise is the best thing you can do to your mind and to your body. To relieve yourself from Your past which never existed, and to look into the new and unexpected area of Your mind -   visit my upcoming concerts or listen to my music at home.

About becoming an electronic music artist and exploring EDM scene

I was lucky enough to perform with exceptional jazz music masters on stage, like Tomasz Stanko and Michal Urbaniak. I had a chance to learn experimental electronic music by working with mentors like Marek Choloniewski. I mixed electronics with reggae masters like Wlodzimierz Kiniorski or Robert Brylewski. Those cooperations showed me that being fully conscious and present in here and now was enough to access the limitless possibilities of musical frontiers. 

I’ve been working as music producer and dj, performing dub and experimental electronics. I was gaining momentum to win the first Les Bains Numeriques International Grand Prix award in 2016 for audiovisual music performance of Dimension N project with Alba G. Corral - a masterful generative art and multimedia artist.

This went hand in hand with my love for immersive experiences, vr art and interactive art installations, which I started developing with Mabel Octobre Theatre in Paris, and continued expanding at Festivals in Japan, China, Hong Kong and EU. Right to the point of winning the International First Prize for the World’s Biggest Projection Mapping in Shenzhen, China in 2019. Seeing my work displayed on 40 skyscrapers simultaneously was wild and out of this world.

The best electronic music experience is always shaped by the audience

Take a look at some of my projects, check out upcoming concerts dates and join me on this exceptional meeting of souls. No live concert is possible without the audience - the public shapes the energy and multiplies it. The artist is there only to be the transmitter or a helper in this energetic flow. 

I want to take You on a mystical journey similar to a deep-sea exploration. Each note and beat is like a wave in an endless ocean, setting the rhythm of an immersive techno voyage. I feel this in my heart when I perform but also when I attend great concerts of bands like Deadmau5, Skrillex, Daft Punk or other iconic artists.

In my world of electronic music, I use vivid, imaginative soundscapes and bass lines echoing like thunders in the night sky. 

I invite you to dive into this immersive experience, to close your eyes and let the enveloping sounds move you.

What sets my work apart?

Being unique is a byproduct, not a goal.

While composing or performing music, I’m trying to have my mind and body resonate with it. When I feel good with it, when the energy centres of my body tell me that I’ve hit a sweet spot and the right timing of a well shaped sound then I know my job is well done.

The same applies to my audiovisual and virtual reality work. The new toys we have today - like sensors, synthesisers, VR, custom midi controllers are just tools which could easily be replaced with a “sack of garbage” as Marcel Duchamp once said. An artist with an idea will make something out of nothing - contrary to today’s models of artificial intelligence by the way - which can only make something based on something else :)
