Musical Cline Twins March to Different Beats
Drummer Alex and guitarist Nels grew up as jazz hounds around L.A., yet they ended up taking parallel but divergent paths. For a pair of identical twins, it's surprisingly easy to tell Nels and Alex Cline apart. Dressed in a T-shirt and dark, slim-cut jeans, spiky-haired Nels Cline looks the part of distinguished “guitar god," even ...
Percussionist/Composer Alex Cline Interviewed at AAJ
West coast drummer/percussionist Alex Cline is a sensitive player with a strong feel for interesting harmonies, shifting voices and changing moods when he writes music. It's a sensitivity not usually associated with drummers. But what's inside Cline, and comes through in his music, is from an artist and a musician, not merely a drummer. He plays ...

Alex Cline: Continuation
by Troy Collins
Twin brother of guitarist Nels Cline, percussionist Alex Cline has often been portrayed as the quieter half, with his introspective leanings serving as the delicate yin to Nels' assertive yang.

Alex Cline: Continuation
by John Kelman
It's been a long time since percussionist/composer Alex Cline last released an album under his own name. 1999's Sparks Fly Upward and 2001's The Constant Flame (both on Cryptogramophone), culminated his evolving Alex Cline Ensemble, combining measured spontaneity with long-form writing that, in its near-classical approach to compositional development, was a unique confluence of form and ...

John Wolf Brennan - Alex Cline - Daniele Patumi - Tscho Theissing - John Voirol: Shooting Stars & Traffic Lights
by AAJ Italy Staff
Prendete 3/4 di Pago Libre (Patumi, Brennan, Theissing). Aggiungeteci una dose di batteria (Cline) ed una di sax (Voirol). Il risultato è un cocktail differente, ma altrettanto gustoso. Sia quindi lodata la Leo Records, che ha provveduto a ristampare questo album, originariamente uscito per la Bellaphon nel 1995. Nella sola prima traccia, ci sono molte più ...
