Kombi is a Polish musical band from Poland, founded in 1969 in Gdaà Âsk by Sà Âawomir à Âosowski. In the beginning, the group played mostly experimental, jazz music. In second half of the 1970s they turned into funk rock, later their style turned towards synth-pop. They used such musical equipment as Commodore 64 as a MIDI sequencer, Prophet 5, Yamaha DX-7 synthesizer, Simmons SDS-V electronic drum kit and Roland TR-808 drum machine. The band was known for its characteristic sound, based on state-of-the-art electronic instruments programmed (and often modified) by à Âosowski, distinctive vocals and guitar playing by Skawià Âski and Tkaczyk's bass slapping style. Their most popular songs include "Sà Âodkiego mià Âego à ¼ycia", "Nasze randez-vous", "Black and White", "Kochaàciàâ za pÃ³à ºno", "Za ciosem cios", "Nie ma zysku", "Przytul mnie", "Królowie à ¼ycia" and "Nietykalni â skamieniaà Âe zà Âo".
The band previously performed as Akcenty, and played their first live gig as Kombi in August 1976. In 1979, they released their first single "Wspomnienia z pleneru" and published three songs on a compilation Muzyka mà Âodej generacji. Their debut album Kombi followed in 1980. In the same year, the band started recording their second album Królowie à ¼ycia, which they released in 1981.
Their 1983 single "Inwazja z Plutona" introduced the new style influenced by synthesizers. The group's third album, Nowy rozdziaà  recorded in 1983 and released the following year, was dominated by synth-pop and included their biggest hit "Sà Âodkiego mià Âego à ¼ycia" as well as popular songs "Kochaàciàâ za pÃ³à ºno" and "Nie ma zysku". At the 21st National Festival of Polish Song in Opole in 1984, Kombi won the audience award for "Sà Âodkiego mià Âego à ¼ycia". The band released their next album Kombi 4 in 1985, and the LP included hits "Nasze randez-vous" and "Black and White". The following year, to commemorate Kombi's 10th anniversary, the band embarked on a tour.
1989 saw the release of their last studio album, Tabu, recorded the year before, which spawned the politically charged hit "Nietykalni â skamieniaà Âe zà Âo". In 1991, the group re-recorded their hits for the new album The Best of Kombi. They split up in 1992 due to musical plans of Grzegorz Skawià Âski, after that à Âosowski decided to suspend band, and stopped finding new musicians for Kombi due to difficult personal situation.
In 2003, Skawià Âski, Tkaczyk and Pluta re-formed the band as Kombii without à Âosowski, inviting a new keyboardist Bartosz Wielgosz to join them. à Âosowski did not acknowledge the band, so in 2004 he formed a band called à Âosowski and released a new album Zaczarowane miasto in 2009. In 2013, band changed name to Kombi, adding his surname to it in order not to be confused with the group of Skawià Âski and Tkaczyk. At the same year, Kombi à Âosowski released "Live" album, with a concert in Grudziàdz, and in 2016 "Nowy Album" (eng. New Album) had its premiere. In 2022 band changed name to Kombi à Âosowski, following a court case with the band Kombii, over rights to the band name.
