Nils Petter Molvaer: Hamada

Read "Hamada" reviewed by Chris May


Despite ample evidence to the contrary, for many people trumpeter Nils Petter Molvær is synonymous with understated, electronica-drenched, ambient music.

In 2006, Sula Records released the fierce, high temperature An American Compilation, partly to increase Molvær's ...

Charlie Hunter: Gentlemen, I Neglected to Inform You You Will Not Be Getting Paid

Read "Gentlemen, I Neglected to Inform You You Will Not Be Getting Paid" reviewed by John Kelman


As ever, 7-string guitarist Charlie Hunter can be counted on to shake things up every couple of discs. After two trio sets with keyboardist Erik Deutsch, Hunter returns to the horn-driven breadth of Right Now Move (Ropeadope, 2003). On Gentlemen, I Neglected to Inform You You Will Not Be Getting Paid, however, Hunter trades Right Now's ...

Ben Goldberg: Go Home

Read "Go Home" reviewed by Sean Patrick Fitzell


A comfortable familiarity permeates Go Home, the latest project from veteran clarinetist Ben Goldberg and the first offering from his Bag Production Records.

Ben Goldberg: Go Home

Read "Go Home" reviewed by John Kelman


Between the rather eclectic and enigmatic The Door, The Chair, The Hat, The Fact (Cryptogramophone, 2006) and Plays Monk (Long Song, 2007), his characteristically idiosyncratic and unorthodox trio take on the music of Thelonious Monk, clarinetist Ben Goldberg continues to expand his broad musical interests, heard in earlier groups including Tin Hat and New Klezmer Trio. ...
