------------Cornel Wilczek, otherwise known as Qua, enjoys nothing more than making electronic music. His debut album "Forgetabout' was released in 2002, on Surgery records. When he dropped Forgetabout on an unsuspecting public, the response was near rapturous acclaim. Here was an artist, a local artist at that, crafting joyful sonic vistas of gorgeous experimental constructions that simultaneously tugged melancholically on the heartstrings whilst sending appreciative shivers through the brain.
Painting Monsters on Clouds is Qua's follow up album. It is an unrepentantly gorgeous and nostalgic mix of sunlit electronics and guitars, buoyed by complex arrangements, and crafted by a gentle iconoclast - bringing to mind the playfulness of Mouse on Mars, the sophistication of Ennio Morricone and the warm lush pops of Architecture in Helsinki.
Foregetabout folktronica, kiddietronica, or even pigeonholetronica as Qua is operating in his own league. This is Quatronica. In fact aspects of it don't even sound all that electronic, drawing upon elements of world music, folk, and even rock in this incredible fusion. Though the tone may be predominantly light, with the whimsical nature of the tunes often cloaking their complexity, even a casual listen reveals Qua's dedication to craftsmanship and eye toward the miniscule.
Qua's work uses field recordings as much as guitar, homemade, noisy software as much as the sound of delicate acoustic instruments, rich spatial environments as much as the digital frenzy of an array of sound-plugins.
Cornel is currently doing his Masters, majoring in surround sound at Media Arts, RMIT. He also works as a sound designer and composer for film/tv/animation while continuing work as a visual artist/designer in his noisy little abode in Collingwood, melbourne.
