Jon Irabagon: Server Farm
by Vincenzo Roggero
Quando un agitatore musicale come Jon Irabagon, mente tra le più aperte, corrosive, imprevedibili e significative della scena jazzistica statunitense mette insieme un tentetto da paura per esplorare fatti e misfatti dell'intelligenza artificiale, curiosità e aspettative sono ai massimi livelli.

Matt Ulery: Mother Harp
by Mike Jurkovic
With 15 albums of adventurous composition and daredevil artistry behind him, Chicago-based bassist-composer-bandleader Matt Ulery is, as they say back home, no slouch. And on his 16th, the raucously-inflamed and infectious Mother Harp, he follows his rock 'n' roll heart to the finish line and beyond. Mother Harp is a bevy of crazy-good stuff ...
Marilyn Crispell, Thommy Andersson, Michala Østergaard-Nielsen: The Cave
by Mike Jurkovic
A temporal fragility warmly embraces as the The Cave opens with the title cut.

Stefano Tanzi: Wrong Together
by Konstantin N. Rega
Stefano Tanzi is an up-and-coming Italian guitarist with a knack for smooth playing.
