Gaia Mattiuzzi: Inner Core

Read "Inner Core" reviewed by Neri Pollastri


Progetto composito e ambizioso questo Inner Core, creatura della cantante Gaia Mattiuzzi alla testa di una formazione cangiante, paritetica fin dal momento della composizione--a parte il batterista Enrico Morello tutti i membri sono anche autori di un brano--e nel quale vengono stravolti i ruoli classici (esemplare come il contrabbasso di Gabriele Evangelista prenda più volte la ...

Who Do You Think We Are?

Read "Who Do You Think We Are?" reviewed by John Kelman


Trying to find a distinct definition of what has come to be known as “The Canterbury Sound" is as elusive as attempting to describe what, in the jazz world, has become an overused epithet for the German ECM Records label and “The ECM Sound." Attempts to do so usually fail short because, rather than being actual ...

Jakko M. Jakszyk: Secrets & Lies

Read "Secrets & Lies" reviewed by John Kelman


Life often unfolds in unexpected ways. For some, like Jakko M. Jakszyk, it has taken some truly surprising twists and turns.

Which makes the ...

Sanguine Hum: What We Ask Is Where We Begin - The Songs for Days Sessions

Read "Sanguine Hum: What We Ask Is Where We Begin - The Songs for Days Sessions" reviewed by John Kelman


Few groups in the history of music can be credited with having come up with something as wonderfully absurd (yet, somehow, totally making sense) as Sanguine Hum. On its last album, the two-CD concept album Now We Have Light (Esoteric Antenna, 2014), the group told the story of a Dystopian future where our hero, Don (just ...

Gilgamesh Another Fine Tune You've Got Me Into Charly 1978 Today's Rediscovery pays tribute to a musician who has been dead for over 30 years but whose brief body of work remains a seminal part of the British Canterbury scene that included groups like Soft Machine, Caravan and Hatfield and The ...

Hatfield and The North: The Rotter's Club

Read "Hatfield and The North: The Rotter's Club" reviewed by John Kelman


Hatfield and The North The Rotter's Club Esoteric Recordings 2009 (1975) Today's Rediscovery is a bit of a lie, because Hatfield and the North's second album, The Rotter's Club, is rarely far from some kind of media player for long. A group that never received the acclaim it deserved back ...
