MorF is a kind of stylistic indecisiveness. The name – derived from a popular question used on the Internet: Male or Female – refers to the state of being between; in this case, between music genres. Kuba Luka and Michal Sosna started the project in 2006. At the beginning it was rather a side project for them – an addition to other projects they were involved in at the time. This changed in April 2006 when they performed before an Australian trio called Triosk. Soon after the duo released its debut album – “7 Liquid ForMs.” The artists set a path that combined wind instruments, such as saxophone and clarinet, with laptop instruments and synthesizers. Soon, these noisy vibrations and “junk sounds” were supplemented with live percussion played by Przemek Borowiecki. The band – a trio from then on – performed in the Warsaw-based Pruderia before experimental music stars Jan Jelinek and Move D. The group entered the recording studio in September 2007. With the participation of vocalists Ania Mikos and Adam Antosiewicz, as well as double bass player Adam Stodolski, MorF recorded a new album titled “ForMalina” (“ForMalin”), which was released by Plektronica on April 1, 2008. Together with photographer Radek Kazmierczak and VJ Jarek Go2Air Jopek, the band performed a multimedia project titled “MorFologia Szarosci” (“MorFology of Grayness”) twice between April and May 2008 (in Katowice and Tychy). In June 2008, TVP Kultura aired the 10th episode of its “Sztuka Ekranowana” (“Screened Art”) program, devoted entirely to the MorF project, with guest appearances by vocalist Ania Mikos and Bitch Von Kicz – an artist responsible for the band’s image. In July 2008, drummer Przemek Borowiecki was replaced by Filip Danielak (known for his collaboration with Kanal Audytywny). The band now prepares to record another album. .
