DZIERZYNSKI BITZ (as Dzerzhinski Bitz or simply Dz.Bitz) is a retro/indie band founded by vocalist and main songwriter Wojciech Dzerzhinski. Hailing from Slovakia, Pavlovce-nad-Uhom, the band's unique style is equally influenced by Edward Gil and Syd Barrett, the East-European pre-war music and the British new wave sound. Under The Gun Review recently labelled their sound "multi-instrumental new wave croon pop".

History

DZIERZYNSKI BITZ's debut album "I II III" was released in June 2012. The core group enlisted the help of fifteen additional musicians to bring their vision to light. The recording of the album began in Russia and was completed in Ukraine before being mixed in London by Joe Hirst (dEUS, Ian Brown, Yasmin). The album's edgy and eccentric modern take on retro influences earned it critically acclaimed.

The group's latest Release "Podmoskovje / Vziat Siloj" was positively received by both critics and the public. In support of the single in March 2013 was a sold-out mini-tour of the capitals of the surrounding states.

The second longplay Dz.Bitz album Love Me Do was released at November 2014. It was recorded in several studios in Kyiv and Moscow, and produced by Graham Sutton (These New Puritans, Jarvis Cocker). The album expands the band style with the more electronic approach and injection of disco-funk grooves.
