“ID.Entity,” the group’s 8th studio album was recorded and mixed in two studios – The Boogie Town Studio in Otwock with Paweł Marciniak and in Serakos Studio in Warsaw with Magda and Robert Srzedniccy – mastered by Robert Szydło and produced by Riverside’s Mariusz Duda himself. The “ID.Entity” artwork was created by Polish artist Jarek Kubicki.
