I'm playing a gig in Warsaw in August and I'm staying an extra day for record shopping. A lot of people are talking about Polish heat but I'm not to proud to admit that I have no clue what's good!!!!I'm staying wirth a local dj who seems to be in the know but I want to ask the SS community too about good Polish records.If anybody knows any shops that info is also very welcome.Thanks a lot in advance. I will post pictures of Olski in Polski for sure!!!
 
Arp Life - Jumbo Jet. Okay polish jazz record with a killer break and intro on Bu Bu.

Not much help, but that's all I got from Poland

DJ Ferrari
 


Breakout
Budka Suflera
Dzamble
Grechuta,Marek&Anawa
Klan
Niemen,Cleslaw-He's got a million albums,most are worth checking out
Nurt
SBB-samples galore
Ossian-Grab these for ME please oh please
Test
Trubadurzy

Most of the above is rock related but some strange and unique sounds too,lotsa sample material.

+ virtually anything in the "Polish Jazz" series
 
The single most obvious answer you could ask for, but it's what I've got and continually digging, Krzysztof Komeda, who did all of Polanski's soundtracks up to Rosemary's Baby.

Also this record:

yo Olski, some Muza's:
Adam Makowicz- Unit (1973) just Makowiccz (keys) and Bartkowski (drums) spacing out, contains beats and distorted keys, a nice one imo (NOT for the dancefloor though!)
Wojchiech Karolak- Easy (1974) progressive fusion, Karolak on some dopeass wahwah organ and fender piano.
Krzysztof Sadowski- Three Thousands Points Points, and Na Kosmodromie (, both with long tracks, breaks and instrumental dopeness.
Zbigniew Namyslowski- s/t, classic stuff for the Mango Boogie and Flight on an UFO cuts which are straight gangsta...!
Laboratorium- Modern Pentathlon and Quasimodo, fusion
also, it can be worth while taking some chances on cheesy looking stuff, polish musicians likes to break it down untight and funky!

 
I'm not sure, if all these are polish, but they are definitely worth listening:

tihomir pop asanovic "majko zemljo"
gusztav csik "es egyuttese"
Piotr Figiel "Piotr"
Piotr Figiel Ensemble "Somewhere, Sometime"
 
Olski,

It depends on what you're looking for but the obvious place to start is with the Muza and Polski labels. If you like rock shit, then Breakout is solid, as is Czerwone Gitary.

String Beat is dumb stupid hot and I remember an old Ish that mentioned some Orchiestra _______ LP that's noice as well.

I really like the ???Nol??? album by Breakout.
It???s a cheapie but has some seriously strong sit on it.
One of my favourites.




 
Debich also produced some other hot stuff in Poland... mostly backing instrumental group work with the Polish TV & Radio Orchestra... keep an eye out for his name.

I found this record a while ago, and it kicks ass. I was wondering if anyone else had this. It's basically crazy electronics, but in a good way. Lots of sample-friendly moments, but I think its also really good listening.

co-sign, Niemen on moog and synths, backed by a drummer, the music was done for a polish play, dope material no doubt. Czeslaw Niemen has put out good stuff, sometimes instrumental sometimes with vocals, in the 70's psychy prog steez, in the late 60's (early 70's) heavy on organ typa records.... definitely recommended!

peace.
