Dylan Jack Quartet: Eine Quartett des Grauens
by Geno Thackara
Often--or at least usually, or sometimes? Let's say sometimes--the classics are classics for a reason. Any horror buff has their own ideas where to go for some creepy-crawlies and jump scares, but they'll probably all agree (on some level) that the most old-school classics set down the blueprint before moving pictures were even matched up with ...
Dylan Jack Quartet: The Tale of the Twelve-Foot Man
by Troy Dostert
Drummer Dylan Jack has long been a fixture on the Boston jazz scene and, with assorted partnerships including fellow Bostonians Charlie Kohlhase, Jeb Bishop and Bill Lowe, he has kept very busy. But, of late, his most fruitful collaboration may be his recordings with guitarist Eric Hofbauer. The two released the first-rate Remains of Echoes in ...

Examples include 2008's uncharacteristic guitar duo The Lady of Khartoum with Garrison Fewell or the striking American solo series--American Vanity (2004), American Fear (2010) and American Grace (2013)--which crossed distinctive terrains of improvisation and covers of iconic ...

Circadian Rhythm Kings: Circadian Rhythm Kings/Three Thirty Four
by Fiona Ord-Shrimpton
A regularly used time reference in this editor's house is 3:15. It's used to denote anything unheard, misheard or not wanted to be listened to--"Can you fetch the milk?" “Quarter past three." “Turn that music down!" “3:15." “Are you going crazy?" “3:15..." so Circadian Rhythm King's album Three Thirty Four is that more or less crazy? ...
Armenian Folk with Jazz Orchestration: Once Upon a Time
Old Stories, New Retellings: Ara Sarkissian and Musaner’s Jazz Muses Inspire a Twist on Armenian Folk with Once Upon a Time “It’s about what you inherit,” declares Ara Sarkissian, the composer and classical pianist behind modern Armenian fusion experiment Musaner. The group has plunged into the caves of tradition to rescue melodies once left for dead ...
