Chris Jonas: backwardsupwardsky

Read "backwardsupwardsky" reviewed by Glenn Astarita

by Glenn Astarita

Few artists can translate geography into sound with the spatial clarity that Chris Jonas achieves on backwardsupwardsky. A saxophonist, composer and multimedia artist whose résumé includes collaborations with Anthony Braxton, Cecil Taylor and William Parker, Jonas has always favored creative risk. This two-LP set on Edgetone Records transforms desert solitude--specifically his winters camping on Arizona's Barry ...

Tropos: Outer Space Chamber Music

Read "Tropos: Outer Space Chamber Music" reviewed by Dean Nardi

by Dean Nardi

Upon first listen to Switches (Endectomorph, 2024), the remarkable album from the group Tropos, one could imagine being caught in the traffic circle at the Arc de Triomphe. The clarinet blares, the violin evokes the squeal of rubber, the drums maintain the churning sound of the motors, while the piano searches for a safe exit. Is ...

Alexander Hawkins: Song Unconditional

Read "Song Unconditional" reviewed by John Sharpe

by John Sharpe

Where on the first solo outing by British pianist Alexander Hawkins, Song Singular (Babel, 2014), his influences strode in plain sight, and the second, Iron Into Wind (Intakt, 2019), in its austerity, nodded toward Hawkins' classical schooling, Song Unconditional feels simultaneously more personal and more welcoming. It finds Hawkins not only consolidating the vocabulary of his ...

Now, as Three-Layer Cake, they return with Sounds The Color Of Grounds, a record that reveals a fully realized and cohesive jazz-punk--or perhaps punk-jazz--ensemble. Watt, etched into punk rock's ...

Read "Piano Four-té: Keyboard Masters Delight On A Quartet of ECM Luminessence Vinyl Reissues" reviewed by Joshua Weiner

by Joshua Weiner

Blue Note. Verve. Impulse! Prestige. Just saying the name of such storied jazz record labels immediately conjures up each one's distinct aesthetic, from the music to the cover art. Over the past half century, the German ECM label has earned its place in this pantheon by steadfastly following its own vision, perhaps best summed up by ...
