CyberNight atPJAIT! A special concert by Bartłomiej Oles

During Museum Night atPJAIT , PJAIT to a concert by Bartłomiej Oles, also known as DRUMBIENTONE— a composer, music producer, drummer, and electronic music artist.

The concert will take place in Auditorium A1 at 8:30 p.m. during CyberNight atPJAIT MayPJAIT , 2026.

Over the course of 35 years of uninterrupted artistic activity, Bartłomiej Oleś has composed over 200 works: cycles of piano miniatures, string quartets, two jazz suites, and compositions created for film, theater, and his own projects. He has also been fascinated by electronic music for years. He created his first sounds in this genre as early as the late 1980s under the pseudonym Brat Paist. In 2023, with the project “Songs of Planets and Moons,” he returned to electronic music for good. In the following years, he released the albums “Seaish Dreams of Electric Waves,” “Storm of Light,” “Voyager Dreams,” and “Time Diary,” featuring guest pianist Mira Opalińska.

In his work, the artist focuses on the themes of travel and the passage of time—both in human experience and from a cosmic perspective. His music is contemplative, open, and universal, regardless of the listener’s age, background, or experiences.

HIBAKUSHA – where does the concert’s title come from?

The term hibakusha refers to the survivors of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Their plight was long ignored, and the survivors themselves often faced exclusion and social stigmatization. Kenzaburō Ōe—later a Nobel Prize laureate in Literature—gave a voice to survivors, doctors, activists, and city residents in his reportage *Hiroshima Monogatari*, creating one of the most important testimonies to the consequences of the use of atomic weapons.

Bartłomiej Oles’ composition “HIBAKUSHA” also draws inspiration from the work of the late Toshinori Kondō—a Japanese avant-garde trumpeter who, in 2002, helped organize an international peace festival in Hiroshima at the invitation of the Dalai Lama.

This is a concert that blends sound, memory, and mindfulness. The electronic composition becomes a space for reflection on history, the fragility of life, and the need for peace.
