Draft:Behavior (band)

Behavior – a Polish musical band. They create music that is a symbiosis of rock and hip-hop. The musicians themselves describe their work as alternative.

History
In 1999, in Wrocław, two musical groups, the rock band Karuzela and the hip-hop group Strefa Wrzutu (SWMC), had a meeting. SWMC recorded the song "Jestem MC" with instrumentalists from Karuzela. In return, the band invited Matyah from SWMC to participate as a guest in the song "Obcasy." The result of the collaboration between both groups was the formation of a new band - Behavior.

The turn of the year 2000/2001 marked the beginning of the band's concert activity, mainly in their hometown of Wrocław and throughout Lower Silesia.

In 2002, two members left the band: drummer Grzegorz Kaczmarek and vocalist Chillos. They were replaced by Piotr Romanowski and Zane (Piotr Kudela), acquaintances of Matyah (Maciej Ziółkowski) from SWMC. The band began recording their songs in the studio.

In 2003, the SLOT Art Festival in Lubiąż was opened by a performance from Behavior.

In 2004, the band continued with extensive touring. They also made another attempt to record studio material. Behavior's songs were featured on Radio Wrocław and Radio94 in Warsaw. The group's work was noticed by Gazeta Wyborcza during the Gra Muzyka campaign. As a result of winning the final of this campaign, the band performed at the Proxima club in Warsaw. Following this success, the musicians began performing intimate concerts in Wrocław and Głogów. Such limitations were due to the intensive studio work. The main prize in the winning finale of the Gra Muzyka campaign was supposed to be a recording contract, but due to the organizers' fault, the album was never released. The band independently released the EP "Fort Polio".

Behavior in 2005 participated in numerous competitions, including:


 * Vena Festival - a festival organized by the Michał Urbaniak Foundation. The band qualified for the second stage.
 * Poviewka in Gliwice
 * 7 Festiwal Działań Muzycznych in Bogatynia
 * Mayday Rock festival in Głogów
 * 11 Liga Rocka in Jelenia Góra

In 2006 and 2007, the animated series for adults "Włatcy móch" was aired on TV4. Behavior was invited to collaborate with the Wrocław-based RMG studio to record the soundtrack for the series. The band accepted the offer.

In 2008, the band released their first full album titled "PRO100". It was mainly sold in a version combined with the EP "Fort Polio."

The music of the band Behavior can be heard in several film and TV productions. This includes the aforementioned series "Włatcy móch" directed by Bartosz Kędzierski, and the film "Chaos" directed by Xawery Żuławski. In March 2012, Behavior participated in the 33rd edition of the Actors' Song Review in Wrocław, where they presented their own performance titled "Retrospekcje Własne" within the OFF genre. In early 2016, the band released another album titled "Behagodzillav". The album was promoted by two tracks, "Od zera" and "TH BHV", for which music videos were produced.
