The history of this piece dates back to 2002. Tomasz Pauszek, then known as Odyssey, and Konrad Jakrzewski and Krzysztof Horn, known as Remote Spaces, met to record a joint album. The fruit of the several-day session was an album called "Ypsilon."
The track "Tranquillers" has been mixed several times over the years for our concerts.
The present version is the result of a collaboration between Tomasz Pauszek and Polish jazz legend Janusz Grzywacz.
It was created on the occasion of Tomasz's 20th anniversary of creative work.

*REVIEWS:*
"(...) With the introduction these guys enter you mind quickly and it makes you clear what kind of music you can expect. Listening to their music I associate it with older songs of Robert Schroeder, especially track nr. 4 „Ypsilon”, which sounds like could have come from either first 3 albums of Robert, Wolfgang Riechman and other music from the 80ies influenced by the new wave. In short, not very exuberant sequencers, but rather subtle to even sad like Mark Shreeves „Thoughts of War”. Regardless the music sounds similar, it certainly is not stolen or stupidly imitated. Modern influences of dance you can hear frequently and gives the music enough identity. I certainly recommend this album and I am very curios about the solo work of these gentlemen and possible further cooperation between them in the future.”

Ypsilon Project is born out of a studio session held in Odyssey`s studio on September 2002 with Remote Spaces. Together they melted their influences and styles in a musical union which joined the recollections of the 80`s. From Kraftwerk to Jean Michel Jarre en passing by Robert Schroeder and Double Fantasy, Ypsilon Project is the meeting point of a period of transition in EM[...]
Curt and frenzied rhythms, other more suave and hypnotic, which go alongside to some ambient and morphic structures variety of Ypsilon is its biggest wealth. Ypsilon is this kind of album where the musicality and variety can reach and please a wider audience without sacrificing the musical research. It`s a very nice album that can easily split two styles in the same desire to tame music and so to bring down many presumptuous barriers.

The music on this album is made by Tomasz Pauszek (aka Odyssey) and the duo Konrad Jakrzewski & Krzysztof Horn (aka Remote Spaces), of which I heard more years in the previous years. The outcome which makes up "Ypsilon Project" was composed during live sessions by the three musicians in September 2002. The 76-minutes of music has a vibrant and warm flavour. Its overall atmosphere more or less hails back to the electronic music made at the start of the `80's when technology slowly but surely stepped in bit by bit. Just have a listen to the smooth and relaxed mood created on the 12-minute "Sequence Space", followed by the dynamic electronic rock-pop and up-tempo sequencing of "Busy City" to get a picture of what the albums music is all about. All in all, "Ypsilon Project" is somewhat of a cross-over of Jarre, Kraftwerk and even TD. Nicely done, guys!

"Ypsilon Project" is a well-produced, multilayered album, which contains `many happy returns` to legendary electronic moods as well as some surprising arrangements and new formal ideas. The journey begins somewhat in the mood of a radio-program á la "Radioactivity" by Kraftwerk, then the music has something to it which reminds the Listener of Double Fantasy, JMJ or Tangerine Dream`s film music. Still, the most important ingredience here is a vey specific, atmospheric mood, as if taken out of some electronic dream vault. This `organic cleanness` one may very well associate with empty cosmic space as well as with familiar earthly landscapes.[...]
