Chris Dingman: The Subliminal and the Sublime
by Dave Wayne
Search the word “subliminal" and you get the following: “below the threshold of sensation or consciousness; perceived by or affecting someone's mind without their being aware of it." Do the same for “sublime" and you have to be sure you include the word “definition" or else you get the website for the popular ska- metal band. ...
Harris Eisenstadt: Canada Day IV
by Troy Collins
Canada Day has been drummer Harris Eisenstadt's flagship ensemble since its first gig on July 1, 2007--his homeland's national holiday, hence the band name. In the ensuing years the quintet has developed an identifiably cohesive sound that expertly balances avant-garde explorations and in-the-pocket swing, with only one significant personnel change; the bass chair is now filled ...

Steve Lehman: Mise en Abîme
by Hrayr Attarian
Saxophonist Steve Lehman's 12th release as a leader/co-leader and his second one with an octet Mise en Abime is a cohesive work of intriguingly cerebral and dramatic nature. Like the title implies there are concepts that repeat, amplify and fade in the process of constructing and deconstructing the main themes of the album. On ...
The David Ullmann 8: Corduroy
by Dave Wayne
I have to admit to suffering a bit of cognitive dissonance upon listening to David Ullmann's Corduroy. Ullmann's original compositions, expertly played by an ensemble comprised of Brooklyn's top-drawer modern jazz talent, are ostensibly inspired by television themes from the 70s. For me, 70s television themes evoke gritty, urban sounds full of clavinet, fuzz-wah Rhodes, funky ...
Steve Lehman Octet: Mise en Abîme
by Martin Longley
It's been five years since Steve Lehman's last Octet album, so we're now voracious for more expanded material. Right at the start, his alto saxophone is briefly alone, and then the entire ensemble weighs in, earthy yet finely controlled. Chris Dingman's customised vibraphone is absolutely central to the sound of these Lehman originals, most of which ...
Steve Lehman: Mise en Abîme
by Dan Bilawsky
There's much ado about the co-mingling of styles, languages, and genres in saxophonist Steve Lehman's music. A good amount of what's been written about his work has focused on his use of spectral music techniques and live electronics, the specially-made microtonal vibraphone that Chris Dingman plays, and the way Lehman mixes it all together to create ...
Steve Lehman: Mise en Abîme
by Luca Canini
È successo tutto piuttosto in fretta: da giovane promessa a venerato maestro. Un'ascesa irresistibile quella di Steve Lehman, un'esplosione assordante. Qualche anno e una manciata di dischi sono bastati per farlo entrare nel novero dei grandissimi del jazz che conta (quello che guardando al passato si proietta verso il futuro: il resto è tempo più o ...
