Kjell Nordeson / Aram Shelton: Incline

Read "Incline" reviewed by Glenn Astarita


The avant-garde schema is sort of an open-world platform where almost anything goes. But Incline is an album that sheds a radiant light on the sax-drums duo format, featuring an inordinate degree of textural components and a seamless integration of two like-minded artists, performing on similar planes. Here, Swedish drummer Kjell Nordeson and American alto saxophonist ...

Gojogo: 28.000 Days

Read "28.000 Days" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


I quattro musicisti di questo quartetto piuttosto singolare risiedono nella Bay Area califoniana e fanno una musica difficile da classificare e che resta tuttavia accessibile. Negli anni percorsi in comune hanno lavorato con registi di teatro dando alla propria musica una collocazione come colonna sonora di situazioni da palcoscenico. Provengono da esperienze molto diverse. Il contrabbassista ...

Arrive: There Was...

Read "There Was..." reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Che la separazione tra nuovo e vecchio nel jazz rischi di far prendere abbagli ce lo insegna a suo modo anche questo bel disco, registrato da un quartetto i cui componenti dovrebbero fornire di per sé sufficienti garanzie all'ascoltatore più accorto e aggiornato. Shelton è uno dei protagonisti assoluti del jazz chicagoano degli ultimi tempi, Adasiewicz ...

Aram Shelton and Arrive Present an Interesting Program of Quartet Music on "There Was"

For those of you like me who are digging some of the interesting ensembles loosely based in Chicago and taking a post-Dolphy trip through composi- tional-improvisational in & out territory, the new CD by Arrive should appeal. Altoist Aram Shelton has a wry sort of pluck to his solo work. He now resides in California where ...

Arrive: There Was...

Read "There Was..." reviewed by Mark Corroto


It is astonishing to consider just how many differing ensembles in which a modern jazz musician might participate. Take, for instance, the players heard in alto saxophonist Aram Shelton's Arrive. Besides his own band Rolldown, vibraphonist Jason Adasiewicz can be heard in seven other bands, including those of Rob Mazurek, Mike Reed, and Nicole Mitchell. Likewise, ...

Arrive: There Was...

Read "There Was..." reviewed by Troy Collins


A longtime fixture of the fertile Chicago jazz scene, Aram Shelton's relocation to Oakland, California has not diminished the alto saxophonist's presence among his peers in the Windy City. Courtesy of a rigorous touring schedule, Shelton maintains memberships in numerous ensembles, including Jason Adasiewicz's Rolldown, the collective ensemble Fast Citizens, and Arrive, his quartet with vibraphonist ...

Aram Shelton's Arrive- There Was... (Clean Feed, 2011) ****a1/2

Aram Shelton's Arrive- There Was... (Clean Feed, 2011) ****a1/2

By Paul Acquaro Aram Shelton's 'This Was...,' recorded with his group Arrive in 2008 is a serious affair that is quite a fun and demanding listen. I was first struck by how cool this group was, cool in the sense of how the vibes, the upright acoustic bass, the commanding sax, and some very hip drumming, ...
