Mo' Horizons: ...and the New Bohemian Freedom
by AAJ Staff
Yet another mixed up German techno record. Hannover DJs Ralf Droesemeyer and Mark “Foh" Wetzler are the two halves of Mo' Horizons, which debuted on record in 1999. In the intervening years they have put out a heap of vinyl, including two full length records. Their third effort, ...and the New Bohemian Freedom, is aptly titled: it represents an hour-long psychedelic tour of Rio, New Orleans, San Juan, Berlin, New York, and Delhi.

Saxophonist Don Aliquo lives up to the title of Growth—his eighth album, set for a February 17 release on Ear Up Records—with a trial by fire. Armed with his tenor sax and bass clarinet, as well as two venturesome, piano-less quartets, the Nashville area-based artist pushes past his established comfort zone and into more precarious and challenging improvisational territory. Aliquo’s eight original compositions are equally audacious. They are simultaneously complex and wide open, signaling that the leader is broadening his ...

Gapplegate Music Review by Grego Edwards
Chicago's Ernest Dawkins has been making some very goodly music for some time now (11 CDs so far). His New Horizons Ensemble has been a big part of the scene since 1978! On The Prairie Prophet (Delmark 598) Dawkins runs the mid-sized, seven-artist cast through in-jazz to out-jazz compositions that have plenty of latitude for the considerable improvising abilities of the players while emblazoning a distinctive stamp on the sound and thrust of the music. This is a well-paced set, ...
