snobb Norwegian composer and pianist Ketil Bjornstad is known for his contemporary melodic jazz albums. "S@motność w Sieci" is a bit different - it is a soundtrack to a Polish TV series, based on the book by Janusz Leon Wiśniewski (2001). It is a modern love story published in 2005 that was released in multimedia form and later as a movie and a 4 episode series for Polish TV. The book itself received mixed reviews - some even called it "pornographic".

It's interesting that none of the music on here was written specifically for the movie, instead, the music was chosen from already existing compositions from film director Witold Adamek's favorite musicians - Ketil Bjornstad and Bugge Wesseltoft. I didn't watch the movie itself, but from reviews and this album, I can perfectly expect what it is like. Melodic, but never too sweet, melancholic, but not overly-sensitive, this soundtrack sounds like a great illustration for a modern story about a modern internet-love story (English name of the film is "Loneless In Internet"). Bjornstad's music fits perfectly with such a release - he knows well how to be modern and old-fashioned at the same time. Better than your usual love story soundtrack, this album is not just another "dolce gelati", but on the other hand, don't expect anything new or unusual - everything on here is done according to the genre's rules. The only pleasant surprise and fresh ingredient on this release are the two Bugge Wesseltoft songs. Selected according to the movie's concept, they are still much more advanced and sound more attractive than the rest of the material. "You Might Say" also contains nice female vocals.

Overall this album is possibly most attractive to fans of the movie (or TV series), but it is really a good release for anyone searching for a romantically melancholic soundtrack for their Friday night.
