A Night at the Jazz Circus! - Companion Mixtape

Read "A Night at the Jazz Circus! - Companion Mixtape" reviewed by Ludovico Granvassu


From Charles Gayle's alter ego, Streets the Clown, to the music performed by the Kamikaze Ground Crew for the Flying Karamazov Brothers, from the countless jazz renditions of the iconi themes that Nino Rota wrote for Federico Fellini's movies to the equally countless jazz tunes inspired by circus acts... Jazz and Circus have a long history ...

Avant-Retro or Retro-Avant? Part I

Read "Avant-Retro or Retro-Avant? Part I" reviewed by Ludovico Granvassu


Rigid categories are not what music should be about. This week we focus on music that some may file under “retro" but is performed by musicians that are often labelled “avant," it may not sound exactly how Count Basie and the Kansas City 7 or Fess Williams and the Royal Flush Orchestra would have played, but ...

Read "Free Association - Vol.1 with Magda Brand" reviewed by Ludovico Granvassu

Max Nagl, Herwig Gradischnig, Peter Herbert, Michael Vatcher: A Day in My Life

Read "A Day in My Life" reviewed by Alberto Bazzurro


Concepito come un LP, con un lato A (i primi quattro brani) e un lato B (gli altri quattro) e i canonici quaranta minuti di durata totale, questo CD trae spunto, almeno nel titolo, dalla canzone dei Beatles che chiude il leggendario Sgt. Pepper's..., “A Day in the Life," anche se poi, al di là della ...

Read "Due nuove gemme riaprono lo scrigno di Steve Lacy" reviewed by Alberto Bazzurro

Ma forse proprio per la mancanza di aspettative clamorose, grazie alla solida direzione artistica tra certezze e curiosità e per quelle alchimie speciali che regolano ...
