UNSPOKEN (2023) deals with the issue of communication difficulties, as a result of which people cannot speak up on issues that are important to them. The main theme of the album is words – primarily those unspoken or, for some reason, unheard, as the title track deals with. This is to draw attention to the important voice of people who, for various reasons, are unable to verbalize it.
Such themes as communication through music (Music The Great Communicator), freedom of speech (Free Speech), the difficulty of verbalizing one’s own emotions (IDK) and other hard-to-grasp things (Invisible or Lost In Translation, referring to the famous film Between Words) resound on the release. In the song Lied Ohne Worte, the artist also referred to the famous Songs Without Words by Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy. With his album, Miłosz Skwirut proves that the most important and clear transmitter of messages is not the words themselves, but precisely the emotions.

ALBUM ROAD MOVIES IS AVAILABLE NOW!
The album „Road Movies” is now available – you can listen to it here and buy the digital copy on Bandcamp.com.
ROAD MOVIES is an album about the everlasting road to finding a peace of mind, love, about a journey to the past, which can also be a road to an inner transformation. In a movie-like, magical way it leads a listener, through not so obvious paths, to the discovery of their own emotions.
A road movie from the title is a particular genre in which the main character leaves their home, going on a journey and thereby usually changing their perspective on their everyday life. I’d want this project to be a change exactly like that to me, a long journey, the goal of which is yet unknown, which would let me convey the most personal thoughts and feelings.
