Continuum: Act One
by Jon Opstad
The first thing to notice about this album, which consists of eight studio tracks recorded in Paris and one live track, is the lineup. Any recording putting together a sextet of this calibre is worth a listen and the results here certainly do not disappoint. There is very much a feel of collaboration to the group. Bartz could be seen as the most senior band member but each of the players is given equal standing and there is ...

by Glenn Astarita
Los Angeles, California-based jazz-rockers “Continuum” display maturity, enviable chops and cohesive interplay on their 3rd and latest recording, Passages. Comprised of top-notch session aces, this band injects the finer elements of fusion with traditional jazz etiquette and methodologies along with a sharp, rugged edge!
“Continuum” pursues contemporary musings with conviction and power while also integrating the occasional display of pyrotechnics, which is most notably evident on their scorching rendition of John McLaughlin’s “Celestial Terrestrial Commuters”. In some respects, this band ...

John Santos: Breaking Down Barriers in the Latin Music Continuum
Source:
The Independent Ear by Willard Jenkins
Bay Area based percussionist-bandleader-educator John Santos is one of the most authoritative musicians I know when it comes to multiple facets of the Afro-Cuban and Latino-Hispanic music continuum. Equally versed in the Latin-jazz vein, salsa and the historic implications of music from the Afro-Caribbean diaspora, Santos' latest recording is the exciting folkloric La Esperanza. We sought John out for some wisdom on this latest, thoroughly researched and beautifully executed chapter in the folklore side of his recorded pursuits. As a ...
