Lado for summer
Lado ABC is a Warsaw-based music label founded in 2004 by a community of musicians. Publishes artists including Mitch & Mitch, Paula i Karol and jazz pianist-bandleader Marcin Masecki. Releases music from genres including rock, jazz and electronic music.(The A stands for electronic music, dubs, noise and similar things. The B represents guitar music. All kinds of it, from classic rock ballads through funk to grind core. The C stands for jazzy, improvised and acoustic compositions, as well as film and classical music.) Lado ABC is a curious, positive phenomenon on the Polish music scene. The enterprise was started by friends focused on making music, not profits. A glimpse at playlists of major Polish radio stations shows what sells and differ greatly from what Lado offers. Not many people listen to formal experiments merging distant genres or niche compositions of modern classical music. That doesn’t concern the musicians behind Lado. They want to make music on their own terms and in their own style, without compromising to commercial requirements. Since they couldn’t find a place where that would be possible, they’ve created one of their own accord.This Wednesday Felix Kubin, an austrian electronic musician will perform at Plac Zabaw. Who composes music since he was 12 years old. He sings, plays, gets involved into noise music projects, gives lectures. He describes himself as a dadaist and faithfuly continues traditions of his predecessor from early XX century.

Milk bar 2.0
If you’ve already been to our free walking tour, you know that milk bars are those mysterious and exciting eateries where time stopped around 20-30 years ago. Still, they’re becoming more and more popular and on the wave of ‘milk bar revival’ some of them are reopened in a formula that combines the best of what they used to be and what they may be now. That’s what we called milk bars 2.0:) The ultimate example is Prasowy, a bar that has worked since 1954 in Marszałkowska St. It was closed a couple of years ago but now has come back with modern (but still vintage) interior design, complimentary wifi and toilet (something you can’t even think of in most milk bars!) and same low prices (tomato soup at 1.5 zł, anyone?:) The present form of Prasowy is a result of a battle fought by city activists who managed to convince the authorities to keep the place a milk bar instead of renting it to banks or chain shops. So don’t be surprised to see pensioners sitting next to hipsters with their macs just next to each other.
Where: Bar Prasowy, ul. Marszałkowska 10/16
