Review
Pig Inside The Gentleman is the record everyone should reach for, the one of the best Polish releases in 2006. CNQ convinces straight away to have their own idea for music, which is not only attractive but also perfectly produced. –Piotr Lewandowski, PopUp Magazine

Review
SOMETHING LIKE JAZZ Contemporary Noise Quintet jazz music without jazz, film music without movie but something splendid instead! Despite the band s name suggesting noisy music for the chosen ones, CNQ appears to be a revelation for everyone. Beautiful, hard, romantic piano tunes in the dialogue with brass section. Simple and extraordinary emotional compositions leading to the climax which makes the flesh creeps while listening. Hair bristle on the heads of those who remember the musical past of CNQ s members… –Bartek Chacinski, Przekroj

Review
Contemporary impresses with maturity and class. There s elegance as well as punk energy. The compositions are unbelievably spacious but on the other hand all fulfilled with instruments from the superb rhythm combo to the greatly equipped brass section. The roots of the most of CNQ s musicians reach harder music, sometimes even heavy metal what bears excellent interest. The compositions are vigorous and expressive. The name of the band must be remembered because it undoubtedly is Polish export commodity. –Diggin the Shelf

Product Description
Contemporary Noise Quintet the band established by Kapsa brothers, who earlier formed Something Like Elvis the legendary emo-hardcore band. CNQ s musicians are also: Tomek Glazik saxophones (Kult, ex-4Syfon, Sing, Sing Penelope), Wojtek Jahna trumpet (Sing, Sing Penelope, Mordy) and the guitar player Kmil Pater who joined the band in November 2006 and lately Patryk Weclawek (bass) who replaced Pawel Urowski. CNQ s music can be described as energetic jazz with the elements of film music. However, the variety of sounds does not allow pigeonholing their music style unambiguously. The debut record Pig Inside The Gentleman was released in autumn 2006. It collected favorable reviews and became one of the records of the year in the plebiscite of III Program of Polish Radio. In November CNQ toured in several cities of Poland. The concerts were enthusiastically received.

The film of choice among members of the audience was Japan’s “School Days with a Pig,” based on a true story took place 16 years ago about students in a sixth-grade class and their teacher who are torn over whether to go through with the promise to eat a piglet they have raised.

“School Days with a Pig” is slated for release in Japan on November 1, 2008.

Can’t Stop Online inquires about the etymology of his chosen title. He tells them that it simply conveys his “passion for pigs,” and is something which has stuck ever since his radio show DJ days in Italy. He isn’t really into bacon though, being a vegetarian.

According to BrandCurve “the brand name and packaging imagery goes against everything one would expect from a chocolate product. Rather than making a chocolate indulgence sound like something fun or special, Fat Pig Chocolate cuts to the chase.”

Oinkganic milk chocolate gets rave reviews from Contagious Magazine and The Chocolate Nerd and all over the blogoshpere.

Maybe this will make more people realize how ridiculous it is to call yourself a fat pig. For eating a bit of chocolate. Or anything else.

Fat Pig Chocolate was designed by NY based creative hotshop The Brooklyn Brothers according to dsd.

According to Alldaybuffet and a recent Adweek article, the Brooklyn Brothers spent a “a year of tasting organic and non-organic chocolates. After consuming countless bites of chocolate, a consensus began to form around a flavor everyone could agree on.”

I agree…

So everybody repeat after me:

We wanna know!

What makes the pig go?!

Some think pigs are so intelligent it’s their competitive spirit which drives them.

Others think pigs do it for fun. And healthy lifestyle.

What do you think? Check gallery below:
