Dialogues Trio with Julian Siegel: Twinkle Twinkle
by Glenn Astarita
The UK-based Dialogues Trio was formed in 2005 and is led by pianist Bruno Heinen, who sports an insightful compositional pen here on the band's debut, Twinkle Twinkle. The musicians often radiate a workingman's type process, where no dillydallying or inflated soloing escapades rule the roost. Featuring reedman Julian Siegel, lending his wares on select tracks, ...
Indigo Kid: Indigo Kid
by AAJ Italy Staff
Suscita un po' di stupore ascoltare Iain Ballamy, uno degli alfieri del rinascimento del jazz inglese Anni Ottanta culminato in quella fucina di talenti denominata Loose Tubes e, successivamente, presenza fondamentale nel gruppo di jazz elettronico Food, abbandonare gli abiti da eterno monello e indossare comode pantofole da salotto. Niente di ironico e irriguardoso, ci mancherebbe, ...
Indigo Kid: Indigo Kid
by Bruce Lindsay
Indigo Kid, the eponymous debut from this UK-based quartet, is a slow burner. At first, it seems pleasant enough: strongly melodic and musically tight, with well-arranged tunes.

The addition of guitarist Rob Updegraff to Twelves, the U.K. band that started as a trio in 2008, tenders a compact yet expandable group focusing largely centered on asymmetrical pulses, layered sound-sculpting, and toggling between the misty divisions of free jazz and free-bop. The guitarist and saxophonist Mark Hanslip act as searchers perched atop oscillating currents, ...

Pianist Bruno Heinen formed Dialogues Trio in 2005 with bassist Andrea Di Biase and drummer Jon Scott.
