Norwegian drummer Gard Nilssen has packed his Supersonic Orchestra with 17 of the top players from Scandinavia and Northern Europe and the result has been acclaimed. If you missed the band's debut "If You Listen Carefully The Music Is Yours," you can hear a track from Nilssen and the ensemble's latest Family. After sitting on a couple of releases by Chicago composer artist Damon Locks for far too long, I'm finally playing music by his Black Monuments Ensemble. Long over due. The message is not. You'll hear guitarist Noah Gershwin's, the Italian trio Eyes and Madness led by pianist Alberto Dipace, and the improvisatory Italian/Spanish trio, HIIT on their recent release for Clean Feed, For Beauty Is Nothing But The Beginning Of Terror.
