Lloyd Swanton: The Necks Trust Each Other to Not Push the Music Too Fast
by Nenad Georgievski
The Australian jazz--improv--jam trio The Necks has been active for quarter century. Consisting of drummer Tony Buck, bassist Lloyd Swanton and keyboardist Chris Abrahams, The Necks' members are all seasoned jazzers who approach the trio's music rather differently. Drawing inspiration from electronica, systems music and rock, the Necks have reshaped the role of the jazz keyboard ...
David Bowie: Excerpts from 1.Outside and Earthling
by Nenad Georgievski
The '80s were very good to singer David Bowie, and maybe too good for his own good. After producing Let's Dance(EMI, 1983), his best selling one, which was followed by a very successful world tour, he went on to reproduce his successes in a very grand and hefty way, mostly by reproducing the same pop formula ...
King Crimson at The Warfield
by John Kelman
King Crimson The Elements TourThe Warfield San Francisco, CA October 3-4, 2014 It's been eleven years since King Crimson last toured extensively, barring a brief four-city, fourteen-date tour in 2008 that acted as the final nail in the coffin of its 28-year run with pyrotechnic guitarist/vocalist Adrian Belew. Never a ...
Pauline Oliveros: Accordion & Voice
by Karl Ackermann
It's understandable if Pauline Oliveros is not a top-of-mind name, even after more than five decades in music. The eighty-two year old composer has been far-removed from the mainstream as a pioneer in the subculture of experimental electronic music and composition since the 1960s and her acoustic instrument of choice is the accordion. Yet her résumé ...
Erik Honore: Heliographs
by John Kelman
If patience is a virtue, then Erik Honoré is, indeed, one virtuous man. Over the past few decades he's built a busy career as a novelist and record producer in his home country of Norway, and has come to increasing international attention as co-Artistic Director of the Punkt Live Remix festival--that globe-trotting festival with a philosophy ...
Hi Fiction Science: Curious Yellow
by Glenn Astarita
Indeed, this British quintet brings a qualitative aspect to the rock world, sans any filler material amid gestures to the 70s array of space-rockers, along with current art-rock persuasions and impressions of vintage Brian Eno's spectral electronics-based dreamscapes. Moreover, Maria Charles' beatific vocals, supported by solid undertones, enhance the band's mesmeric grooves, tinted with hypnotic etudes ...
Jon Hassell: City: Works of Fiction (Expanded Edition)
by John Kelman

Le musiche senza frontiere di Giovanni Venosta
by Claudio Bonomi
Classe 1961, Giovanni Venosta è una delle figure più originali dello scenario musicale del Bel Paese. Un manipolatore di suoni, uno sperimentatore innamorato del crossover, un geniale creatore di musiche per film che, e qui sta il paradosso, non ha mai preso una lezione di tecnica di composizione. Si diploma in pianoforte nel 1983 e, a ...

Polar Bear: In Each And Every One
by Bruce Lindsay
Polar Bear is back. Not just with a bang, but with a whole array of other sounds, including the occasional whimper. In Each And Every One brings together 11 tunes from the pen of drummer Sebastian Rochford--from the gently bucolic to the downright macabre. There's also an early front runner for the Best Song Title Of ...
