La vita e la musica di Makaya McCraven
by Angelo Leonardi
Un ritratto di Makaya McCraven deve necessariamente considerare la mutazione antropologica che è avvenuta nell'ultima generazione di musicisti afroamericani che si spingono oltre la tradizionale sintesi tra jazz e generi popolari, usando creativamente la tecnologia sperimentata nell'ultimo trentennio dai DJ e produttori dell'hip-hop e della club culture. Le musiche di questo tumultuoso torrente ...

Green Man Interviews: Alabaster DePlume
by Martin Longley
Alabaster DePlume has a softness of saxophone tone. He also has a hardness of poetic intent. These divergent aspects of this multi-instrumentalist, London-living bon vivant can be heard on an impressive pair of recent releases. To Cy & Lee: Instrumentals Vol. 1 (International Anthem Recording Co.) finds DePlume at his most introspective, making music ...

Deeds Not Words
by Patrick Burnette
Try as he might, Pat can't escape Mike's jones for jazz mixed with politics, so he submits, and the boys look at examples of art-music and political rhetoric in jazz by musicians alienated by the last few years of political events. Do the bastards pontificate more than the music they're criticizing? You be the judge. Cutting ...
Jeremy Cunningham: The Weather Up There

This can be done in many ways, but it is rare that an album connects emotion with complex layers of memory, interpersonal relations, politics and societal structures. Nevertheless, this is what drummer and ...
