Skalpel are Marcin Cichy and Igor Pudlo, two Polish jazz DJ's from Poland that want to share Polish jazz with the rest of the world. Skalpel has to date released two albums on Ninja Tune, a prestige trip-hop label based in London, Konfusion in 2005 and their amazing debut self titled album in 2004. The self titled double LP has 12 tracks packed full of polish jazz samples from the 60's and 70's that took Skalpel years of "digging the crates" to find.
When I first heard this record I was in awe becuase it was like nothing I had ever heard. The heavy beats along with the mellow instrument samples of polish jazz sound genuinely unique. Skaplel descibed their sound as "...a mixture of breaks and ambient sounds, and a hip-hop way of producing it,” , in an interview with BBC.co.uk. Check out Break In and see what you think. It’s clear to me why Skalpel wants to share Polish jazz with the rest of the world.
