SOLITON 501
By Adam Baruch
This is the third album as a leader by veteran Polish Jazz drummer Tomasz Łosowski, who is also a member of the excellent Orange Trane ensemble. Following a straightforward Jazz album released a year earlier, this album returns to the Jazz-Rock Fusion idiom, similar to his debut album recorded thirteen years earlier. The album presents ten original compositions, all by Łosowski, recorded with the help of several musician friends in various lineups, which feature Łosowski on drums and keyboards.
The
music is an excellent collection of melodic Funk/Groove/Fusion tunes, which
are all perfectly executed by Łosowski and his cohorts. This is definitely
"good time" music, which is being presented here with no false
pretenses or misconceptions and as such, delivers exactly what is promised to
the max. It is great to see Łosowski presenting this music proudly and with no
inferiority complex, as he can certainly be very happy with the result.
Although
the music is oriented towards a wide audience, it is not making any compromises
as far as the levels of composition and execution are concerned. The music is
full of passion and great harmonic beauty and Losowski delivers superb, often
very complex rhythmic support, which is nothing short of virtuosic. Overall
this album proves that seemingly simple music can be made with flair and taste
and not be an insult to the listener's intelligence. For
Fusion/Funk fans this is definitely something worth checking out, but this
album also sounds great in a car while driving or at home while relaxing with a
bottle of cold beer in ones hand. In short, cool stuff!
