Martin Küchen: The Spirit Of Piteşti

Read "The Spirit Of Piteşti" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto

Sometimes a scene in a movie or a book persists in the mind long after being viewed or read. Sometimes an aroma can conjure a feeling from the past. Memory is often connected to emotion in an unconscious manner. Substitute sound for scent and the passions can be equally strong. The Swedish/Norwegian trio of saxophonist Martin ...

John Lindberg: Western Edges

Read "Western Edges" reviewed by John Sharpe

by John Sharpe

Released simultaneously with Born In An Urban Ruin (Clean Feed, 2016), Western Edges reveals yet another facet of bassist John Lindberg's interest. The Raptor Trio reunites Lindberg with saxophonist Pablo Calogero, a comrade from NYC's loft jazz era, when both were 16 years old. Calogero, who was also involved in proto hiphop groups, has been little ...

Samo Salamon Sextet: The Colours Suite

Read "The Colours Suite" reviewed by Mark Sullivan

by Mark Sullivan

Slovenian guitarist/composer Samo Salamon has built a diverse discography, with a wide range of instrumentation. He had always wanted to do a project with two drummers, and a 2016 show at the Jazz Festival Ljubljana finally presented the opportunity--this album documents that performance. Recruiting a sextet made up of a mix of longtime associates and players ...

Meridian Trio: Triangulum

Read "Triangulum" reviewed by Troy Dostert

by Troy Dostert

2017 is proving to be something of a breakout year for alto saxophonist Nick Mazzarella. He recently released Signaling, a superb freely-improvised duo recording with cellist Tomeka Reid, and now he's followed it up with this excellent outing from the Meridian Trio, where he is joined by his colleagues Matt Ulery on bass and Jeremy Cunningham ...

Elliott Sharp: Dialectrical

Read "Dialectrical" reviewed by John Sharpe

by John Sharpe

Dialectrical constitutes the third entry in the discography of Elliott Sharp's most jazz-focused outfit, following on from the eponymous debut Aggregat (Clean Feed, 2012), and subsequent Quintet (Clean Feed, 2013). Although perhaps best known for his idiosyncratic guitar work, Sharp here demonstrates his chops as an adept reedman, with a talented NYC crew on board. Special ...

Samo Salamon Sextet: The Colours Suite

Read "The Colours Suite" reviewed by Glenn Astarita

by Glenn Astarita

Slovenian guitar ace Samo Salamon fronts a European ensemble akin to one of those legendary all-star jazz summits, but of course these colorific works veer off into an experimental wonderland of improvisation with split-second paradigm shifts amid the ensemble's synergistic discourses. Nonetheless, the respective musicians are at the top of their game here, as Salamon arranged ...

Mat Maneri/Evan Parker/Lucian Ban: Sounding Tears

Read "Sounding Tears" reviewed by Dan McClenaghan

by Dan McClenaghan

Viola-ist Mat Maneri has spent a quarter century carving out an artistic niche that marries avant-garde jazz with microtonal music, crafting off-center masterworks like Blue Decco (Thirsty Ear, 2000), Sustain (Thirsty Ear, 2002), and teaming with pianist Lucian Ban on Transylvanian Concert (ECM Records, 2013) and sitting in on a compelling sideman slot on Ches Smith's ...

John Butcher, Ståle Liavik Solberg: So Beautiful, It Starts to Rain

Read "So Beautiful, It Starts to Rain" reviewed by Vic Albani

by Vic Albani

John Butcher sta lentamente prendendo il posto di “sua maestà" Evan Parker che potremmo definire quasi uno specialista degli incontri in duo con percussionisti vari. Scherzi a parte, il sessantatreenne sassofonista di Brighton attivo discograficamente sin dalla fine degli anni Ottanta, torna a far brillare casa Clean Feed da una parte con una ristampa ...

Pascal Niggenkemper Le 7éme Continent: Talking Trash

Read "Talking Trash" reviewed by Neri Pollastri

by Neri Pollastri

Anni fa il contrabbassista e compositore franco-tedesco Pascal Niggenkemper ebbe modo di vedere alcuni documentari sulla spazzatura che invade gli oceani e, in alcuni casi, si ammassa a formare isole galleggianti, tanto da essere denominata “il settimo continente"; impressionato dalla cosa, pensò di realizzare un progetto musicale che “mettesse in musica questa realtà assurda." Il risultato ...
