Oh, so you've listened to it yesterday. I said I would be restless in posting this.
The production on the whole album is excellent if you ask me, but the compression kills it. It's a pity, you're on a slow connection, because I've got the whole album in my slsk share.
Łoskot are four polish jazz veterans playing completely different styles of jazz in their everyday musical life (melodic/symphonic - Walicki, radical free - Trzaska, rocky psychodelic - Pawlak and contemporary composition - Gwincinski). Once in a while they unite and record an album as Łoskot (eng. trans. - racket). A few years ago they specialized in more psychodelic spacious 30-min improvised tracks. On "Sun" they focused on brief compositions with more electronic stuff going on. I've been listening to it since I got it a month ago, almost every day.
In one of the recent threads you said that you didn't want to venture into jazz because there is too much to embrace. Well, it's basicly how I feel about jazz too, but sometimes I make an exception for something like Loskot, Robotobibok and more widely known guys like Branford Marsalis, Ken Vandermark (especially FME), Berne, Taborn. Just thought it might also interest you.

As for the question in the topic: I feel this way when I listen to dub or Muslimgauze. I hate dub though - too many reggae friends in high school.
too drunk to write correctly or to check the grammar.. going to sleep..

i only know robotobibok and vandermark out of all those people.. here's me being honest; not a big fan of either of those two im affraid :)

Music never really makes me want to go hop on a plane to its place of origin, but it often makes me want to be spontaneously whisked away to a certain place during a certain time. A precise location rather than a general country. I'll listen to some bluegrass thingamabob and I'll want to be in the bayou or whatnot (hanging around with Burt Reynolds and the guy that was also in Robocop, optimally). Where that bayou is and what's beyond it, I dunno. I guess whatever song comes next defines what's at the end of the river.

i actually think of certain places i've been before or have passed my whole life while i listen to certain tracks. Maybe this means something? Like, that i need to goto that place and listen to the music that brought this place up in my mind? Perhaps i'll see aliens !

Ah, ok, then I got your taste all wrong. However, when you finally start exploring jazz, don't say no to Tim Berne.

when i listen to a song in a place i like, when i listen to it again i always want to go back to that place. when i listen to Plaid's Spokes album, i always remember being on trains in rural Quebec. i really want to go back, everytime i listen to it.
man, gotta go to jamaica sometime too.

Never been there, but as far as I know, your options are:
1- Stay in a resort for tourists all the time
2- Go to see the real Jamaica and prepare to be beaten
(anyway, ppl usually have too much fear, so it might be just some losers opinion. I have traveled ghettos in africa (Senegal, Gambia) all by myself, and I was the only white you could find in miles, with no problems (at least not important ones))

That was my point Mr. Tolstoyed!
Just show respect, never fear, be polite, smile, and there you go...
And for the topic, whenever I hear cuban music, I want to go back here... (I'm one of those guys sitting, not the guahiros)

In many senses.
And sure we know about tourist resorts in Mallorca. Wish I had a really big Bulldozer!

i think about this occasionally, especially listening to jamaican reggae, but the stuff i like best has come and gone in jamaica, rocksteady and soulful reggae of the late sixties and early seventies.
so i agree with r4of, i'd want to visit different places and other times. lately i've been thinking i'd like to see james brown performing live in 1973...
i'd also like to travel to morocco to see the master musicians of jajouka.
