theVolume
is not about loudness
Abstract: The music is not just sequence of events, but an urge,
which we can only pretend to be able to control. If the
order becomes slightly more complicated than just a simple
equation, the system tends to fall apart as more and more
hidden inconsistencies unfold. We can think of them as of
numerous scratches and holes on the surface of
meticulously calculated chart - those anomalies is our
material, we are standing on the surface of the chart and
trying to hold on not to be buried under the pure chaos.

Long story short:
theVolume appeared in 2006 in Almaty KZ, when Denis
Kolokol and Alexander Chikmakov started to
experiment with computer and acoustic guitar in
order to find their own interpretation of improvised
abstract music. In 2008 Denis Kolokol left for
Kraków PL, and for 2 years the duo worked on
distance. The focus of the band has slowly shifted
to interactive stuff and algorithmic composition. In
2010 another member joined the band - Tomek
Chołoniewski on drums and percussion. At the moment
theVolume is a trio with more or less stable
residence in Kraków.
The debut CD of the band is expected in 2011.
