“The Mechanics of Nature” is the third studio album by The Beat Freaks, not counting the music for
the film “Zamoyski – Sculptor with a Camera”. The musicians were inspired by nature, its beauty, complexity, unpredictability, extremes, sounds and mechanisms that constantly regulate it. Nature speaks to us constantly – musicians tried to capture its message and convey it with their sounds. Despite the achievements of civilization, Nature still determines human life, and recently the earth
increasingly warns us not to go too far. She is beautiful but she can also be
deadly. The musicians also wanted to convey these extremes with their sounds.
