hmm... it almost seems like you could go to soulseek or
amazon.com and use the network's data to find "people who
have bought this have also bought" or "you might also like"
etc... naaaaah....

warsaw village band; saw them live which was fantastic and
have their cd uprooting. Fun music and naughty lyrics, I'm
told.

i don't know much about jazz (only the ones everyone knows)
and i don't really know what "ethno" means... but as for
folk, Elliott Smith is great if you haven't heard him yet. i
also made a topic about a french folk/post-rock band called
Hitchcockgohome a few days ago in case you haven't seen it :
)

...apart from that, have you heard some music from Boris
and/or The Young Gods and/or Rachel's already?

I was just about to recommend them. But I prefer their CD
"People's Spring". And yes, the lyrics are very naughty,
mostly about fucking in the hay with Matthew or getting
beaten by your own mother for not working hard enough in the
barn.

And as for jazz, I'm gonna once again recommend Robotobibok,
preferebly album "Instytut las"

Ah Matteusz (sp) such a great song :) My girlfriend
performed it with a couple of her classmates as part of her
graduation.

I was wondering what their status is in Poland, are they
popular? Top 40 material?

They were very dancy live, I recommend them to everyone
here.

You might like nlf3 trio goran, they're kind of
semi-improv, jazz-tinged, instrumental psych-rock if that
doesn't sound too silly. There's some mp3s to download if
you click on the album covers.

You, you raised an interesting problem, Warsaw Village Band
is not very popular here, rather Top 200 material. The same
with The Cracow Klezmer Band. I mean, all of my friends dig
both of the bands, but the attitude of an avarage consumer
is more or less like this: We have out VIVAs and MTVs, we
know what the world listens to now is 50 cent and we cannot
let our peers from the west think they are superior.
Especially that that fucking folk or something is music for
the rednecks, right?
So everybody listens to the same radio shit. Even Eurovision
is still popular here.

Mateusz is spelled with one "t" and it's my real name, so I
like that song too. It's not so easy to perform I guess,
kudos to your gf.

not folk, not etno. Some people refer to it as gothic band,

Yeah I had the pleasure of visiting Poland one summer ago as
well as some other 'eastern' countries. Forgive my
preconceptions, but I guess I was surprised by the fact that
everyone looks the same these days, no matter where you go.
I guess we all listen to the same shit music too :)

My Bloody Valentine (Natch)

Kyuss (Welcome to Sky Valley=Best "heavy" album of the
90's)

Teenage Fanclub

Elliot Smith

Mogwai

Pavement

Trans Am

Dinosaur Jr

Only acceptable. Sky Valley is the greatest

Tolstoyed: The last jazz album that raelly had some impact
on me was this thing:

Muzyka\jazz\mikołaj trzaska\(2004) danziger
strassenmusik\
Get it from me on slsk. Username is the same as here.

It's basicly free-jazz but very very far away from your
usuall Brotzmann style. It's subtle and nostalgic. It has a
slowed down version of Lonely Woman by Ornette Coleman, so
you know what you can expect.

if i name bands, then i have to name records too, since
almost every good band has made several terrible records.

however, i heartily recommend

"standing up straight" and "the legendary wolfgang press and
other tall stories" by the wolfgang press.

now i'm off to rock'n roll fantasy camp.

and for god's sake, pharoah sanders. timeless afrotinted
jazz that moves from sweet and sublime to explosive and
chaotic.

"thembi"
"black unity" (it's one 37 minute jam)
"izipho zam" (though i'd skip the vocal track)

*signs up for adult contemporary fantasy camp*
