BNNT // LIVE from Konrad Smolenski on Vimeo.

BNNT started as a Konrad Smoleński’s sound performance solo project in 2008. In the same year drummer Daniel Szwed, from Woody Alien and Mothra, joined and BNNT became a duo. In 2012 they released their debut album _ _ on Qulturap (CD) and Pink Punk (Vinyl). In addition to stage performances, BNNT also practise “sound bombing”  which involves the duo crossing cities in a modified truck equipped with a sound system and power generator for unexpected short sound happenings. Smolenski makes sounds with a self-constructed instrument called “bomb” or “baritone missile”, which is basically a 4-string baritone stereo guitar in the shape of a missile. 

In Energy Hunters the sound of the drums, the only classical instrument used by the musicians, is more of a symbol than of a tool. If there is a sound coming out of them, it’s the lyrical sound of cymbals. The visually sublime film with no clear plot keeps the viewer with a sense of uncertainty and anxiety. The specific atmosphere of sublimity seems to lead to the climax, unleashing energy through layers of untold events, electrifying the viewer to even a greater extent.
