Polish jazz musician Wacław Zimpel made the 'The Long Weekend' EP with British electronic producer James Holden, a rich jazz electronica album, with a trance quality, which is where both musicians come together. They interviewed each other for the Quietus, this is how they see their common ground: "I've got a million definitions for trance - but the first sign for me is when you start hearing inside the sound, or outside linear time - notes aren't just a note in a place in a sequence but exist in relation to all the previous and future versions of themselves" - Holden; "to me one of the ways of getting to this state of mind is via repetition of a pattern. After many repetitions I stop thinking about this and I become equally listener and player. Eventually I have the feeling that I am disappearing" - Zimpel.
