New digital release by Undermathic available now from Tympanik Audio
2011/09/13
Undermathic presents his listeners with 13 unreleased and deleted tracks from his pre-album years in a digital-only release appropriately titled ‘Deleted (1999-2006)’. Each song here could easily pass for new material, exhibiting Maciej’s solid production and composing skills even in their earliest stages. From the industrial-tinged tautness of “Mechanical Steering”, “Bypass”, and “Moyen Age”, the quirky electro rhythms of “Stereo” and “Idleness”, to the smooth melody-laced atmospheres of “My Room”, “Parallel”, and “I’m Waiting”, Undermathic once again delivers another memorable collection of songs full of vitality and warmth.
All songs written and produced by Maciej Paszkiewicz between 1999 and 2006. Cover artwork by Timothée Mathelin aka shift.

Undermathic on new free compilation
2011/04/18
Classical-ambient song "Alrauna" made by Undermathic is starting Chroniques Electroniques 's compilation "When Light's Drillin The Haze"
Secondo album, ad un anno esatto dall'ammirevole debut "Return To Childhood", per il solo-project polacco, recente scoperta dell'ottima Tympanik, autentico faro del fiorente panorama IDM col suo gettito continuo di uscite di qualità e spessore...
For me this is a hotly awaited follow up to debut ‘Return To Childhood’; opening with the massive, driving ‘Big City Nights’ that takes you on a journey invoking images that the title suggests...
Travel through any busy metropolis and, while
you may be fortunate enough to find moments of relative calm, for the
most part it's difficult to escape the noise , information overload and
even a sense of menace....

It seems like the Tympanik label has gone on a releasing spree, as I
have many more CDs from to review this time around than any other label.
One thing you can be sure of, whatever they release is going to be
interesting in some way or another, and such is the case with Polish
composer Maciej Paszkiewicz's Undermathic project...
Though Undermathic hews to the dark electronic side of the spectrum in a manner to be expected of a Tympanik Audio artist, Maciej Paszkiewicz also proves himself to be a composer who's a cut above the rest. That's certainly apparent on 10:10PM, his follow-up to 2009's Return To Childhood, especially when the Poland-based producer allows the melodic sophistication of his music to come to the fore....
One year after the debut-CD “Return To Childhood” we get a new opus composed by Maciej Paszkiewicz. The least I can say is that this young and talented Polish musician has seriously involved in his global production work. After a promising debut we now get a fully accomplished and alluring release. “10:10PM” opens quite smooth with the very evasive “Big City Nights”...
Actually, it’s not so long ago that Maciej Paszkiewicz has joined the Tympanik Audio label for the release of his album ‘Return To Childhood’ in 2009. There was a unique aura of wistfulness surrounding that record, enclosed in each and every track which is why I think the album became so much of a critic’s darling back in the day. Autumn of 2010 sees UNDERMATHIC returning to the scene with a new album, titled ’10:10PM’ and released on 10th October...
Młoda ale prężna chicagowska niezależna wytwórnia Tympanik Audio mająca umiłowanie do wydawania naszych rodzimych artystów ([haven], C.H. District) wydała drugą płytę Macieja Paszkiewicza tworzącego jednoosobowy projekt Undermathic. Maciej debiutował w 2009 roku płytą "Return to Childhood", ale dopiero w "10:10pm" prawdziwie rozwija skrzydła...
Nice review of '10:10pm' by Chroniques Electroniques
2010/11/15
Nous avions déjà parlé du Polonais Undermathic (pseudonyme plus aisément
prononçable que son véritable nom, Maciej Paszkiewicz) à l'occasion de
la sortie de son premier album, l'excellent Return To Childhood (ici).
Tout juste un an plus tard, le multi-instrumentiste remet le couvert,
toujours sur Tympanik Audio.
Rarement le label de Chicago
n'avait autant fait de tels efforts de production. Tant et tellement
qu'il est inutile de cataloguer cet album dans une des quelconques et
vulgaires sous appellations innombrables que comportent les musiques
électroniques. Électronique ? 10:10 PM l'est bien évidemment. On
retrouve cette infection du beat, les profondes synth-lines et la légère
frénésie rythmique qui avaient fait le succès de l'album précédent et
qui demeurent l'apanage de la plupart des excellentes sorties du label...
I have been captivated by the new release from Undermathic entitled
“10:10PM”. This is yet another fantastic piece of IDM/Electronica from
the Tympanik label. The album is awash in everything from tribal rhythms
and intricate IDM stylings to ambient soundscapes and smooth running
machinery. The very first notes of the opening track “Big City Nights”
set the tone for what becomes a journey through a dream like atmosphere
underpinned by dark brooding strings, delicate synths and a relentless
beat that pulls the music ever forward…just fantastic. The album never
falters as track after track takes you deeper into this beautifully
balanced electronic masterpiece. The composition of the music is superb
and the production is simply stunning. With out a doubt this is one of
the finest releases I’ve heard all year, and with the glut of mediocre
music I’ve heard lately its truly a pleasure to come across a high water
mark release like this. I highly recommend this to anyone who is a fan
of electronic music.

Trois ans seulement d’existence pour Tympanik Audio et la réputation du label chicagoan n’est déjà plus à faire : en termes
d’IDM futuriste, de beats abstraits et de nappes électroniques en
clair-obscur, il n’y a tout simplement pas mieux!.....
