Ches Smith: Clone Row
by Vic Albani
Giù il cappello ancora una volta. Ches Smith è davvero un meraviglioso esempio di intelligenza e--dopo il bellissimo capolavoro dedicato al Voodoo (Path of Seven Colors) pubblicato con Pyroclastic nel 2021, ma anche Laugh Ash del 2024--tira fuori dal cappello un'altra meraviglia affrontando un'autentica destrutturazione di un super quartetto con tanto di due chitarre (Mary Halvorson, ...
Ches Smith, Ivo Perelman, Leif Berger & Dan Phillips
by Maurice Hogue
Music coming from all directions in this edition of One Man's Jazz. Drummer Ches Smith is a true chameleon these days; every album has a different theme or direction or a different band. On his new Clone Row he turns to the twin guitars of Mary Halvorson and Liberty Ellman to stir the pot. Saxophonist Ivo ...
Ches Smith, Enemy, Matt Ulery, Russ Johnson & More
by Ludovico Granvassu
"Looking back to look forward" could be the motto of this playlist. It kicks off with a blaxploitation tinged scorcher of a song from an upcoming Charles Kynard re-release, followed by a live performance in which Enemy (Kit Downes, Petter Eldh, James Maddren) celebrate a decade of music-making. Also included, an unearthed gem featuring a 2009 ...

Myra Melford Splash, Thomas Heberer's Remedy & Ra Bishop
by Maurice Hogue
It's early in the year to be thinking “best-of" albums, but I'm definitely noting these for December: pianist Myra Melford's Splash Trio with bassist Michael Formanek and drummer Ches Smith and Remedy, the trio of Thomas Heberer trumpet, Joe Fonda bass & Joe Hertenstein drums. These are two recordings that present the kind of free expression ...

Erik Friedlander: Dirty Boxing / Floating City
by Vic Albani
Ironico come sempre, Erik Friedlander torna sul mercato con un singolare nuovo lavoro intitolato Dirty Boxing dedicato al crudo vocabolario delle arti marziali miste (!!!) con tanto di guantoni da boxe in copertina. Il gioco è quello di esplorare gli imprevisti parallelismi tra la disciplina artistica della musica e il combattimento strategico delle arti marziali.
I Dischi del 2024 secondo Ludovico Granvassu
by Ludovico Granvassu
Spesso molti articoli sulle “migliori uscite dell'anno" iniziano con una premessa quasi apologetica ("questi non sono necessariamente 'i migliori album dell'anno,' ma 'i miei preferiti';" “è tutto soggettivo;" “domani avrei scelto titoli diversi;" “ho potuto selezionare solo dieci album," ecc.)? Queste dichiarazioni sembrano riflettere il disagio del redattore, costretto a riassumere un vasto ecosistema artistico selezionando ...
Ludovico Granvassu's Garden of Jazzy Delights 2024
by Ludovico Granvassu
Have you noticed how many “best of the year" listicles start with an apologetic preamble ("these are not necessarily 'the best albums of the year' but 'my favorites';" “it's all subjective;" “tomorrow I might have chosen different titles;" “I could only select ten albums" etc.)? Those disclaimers channel the writer's discomfort of having to summarize a ...
