An unusual project was performed over the weekend in London at the Unsound festival, one of the world’s most adventurous music events of this kind. Ambient noise and synth-pop was paired with traditional folk dancers from Poland’s Śląsk Song and Dance Ensemble.

"We have been pigeonholed as a traditional dance ensemble fit for older generations, able to please your pops and grannies. However, it suddenly turns out we are able to create something fresh and up to date," dancer Katarzyna Gryzko said.
