Rodrigo Amado: Wire Quartet
by Glenn Astarita
Portuguese saxophonist Rodrigo Amado is an aggressive, improvisational dynamo who has amassed a hearty discography for Clean Feed Records and several other European record labels. His mode of delivery parallels a heavyweight boxer who jabs, dances, and executes vicious left hooks and uppercuts. Recorded in a Lisbon studio, his quartet opens the floodgates with blossoming theme ...
Eric Revis: Eric Revis: In Memory Of Things Yet Seen
by John Sharpe
Although the title to bassist Eric Revis' quartet offering appears to pay homage to some of the early AACM documents (think pianist Muhal Richard Abrams' unaccompanied manifesto Things To Come From Those Now Gone (Delmark, 1975)), the actuality is a different animal entirely. Having rung the changes since the acclaimed City of Asylum, Revis' outfit acts ...
Angles 9: Injuries
by John Ephland
What's to love about this CD is the musicality that's thrown into the maelstrom of styles and attitudes. You've got a hint of early, experimental jazz from the mid-60s with the opening number, “European Boogie" (think Bobby Hutcherson with Eric Dolphy or Archie Shepp, the vibes being paramount); that's until they all start into a kind ...
Lawnmower: Lawnmower II
by Troy Collins
Drummer Luther Gray described in the liner notes to West, Lawnmower's 2010 Clean Feed debut, that the record was an attempt to reconcile the various genres he'd worked in throughout his career--an all-inclusive approach that could be traced back to the stylistically diverse music he listened to on a Walkman while mowing lawns in his youth. ...
Sei Miguel: Salvation Modes
by John Ephland
A delicacy pervades this music from start to finish. Sei Miguel's Salvation Modes is flush with silence, interludes, the sounds of musical instruments that made you love them in the first place. The disc is spread over three extended pieces: the first piece, “Preludio e Cruz De Sala," including trumpeter Miguel with guitarist Pedro Gomes, trombonist ...
Eric Revis Quartet: In Memory of Things Yet Seen
by Vincenzo Roggero
Nel corso degli anni la figura artistica di Eric Revis--giunto alla ribalta delle cronache jazzistiche per la lunga permanenza nel quartetto di Branford Marsalis, qui presente in due brani--è andata acquisendo i contorni di musicista che, pur senza la pretesa di cambiare le sorti del jazz, ne è diventato esponente di spicco, dalla consistente vena creativa ...
Rodrigo Amado: Wire Quartet
by Mark Corroto
It is possible that Portuguese saxophonist Rodrigo Amado's earlier releases caught your attention because of the names of his playing partners. Chicago trombonist Jeb Bishop recorded two discs with Amado's Motion Trio, The Flame Alphabet (Not Two, 2012) and Burning Live At Jazz AO Centro (JACC Records, 2012). There was also Searching For Adam (Not Two, ...
Pascal Niggenkemper Vision7: Lucky Prime
by Vincenzo Roggero
Lucky Prime è il debutto discografico per i Vision 7 di Pascal Niggenkemper ed è album trasversale come pochi. In Lucky Prime avanguardia, free, musica da camera, contemporanea e sperimentale, noise si ritrovano in una sorta di camera di combustione lenta e inesorabile che rischia di esplodere al minimo respiro. Ma a caratterizzare ...
Michael Dessen Trio: Resonating Abstractions
by Robert Bush
Michael Dessen is a slide-trombone virtuoso and computer musician of the highest order, and the music his trio crafts on Resonating Abstractions showcases his work as a composer in compelling fashion. Key to this success are the contributions from singular double-bassist Chris Tordini and the multi-rhythmic drums of Dan Weiss. Together they realize and expand the ...

Marsalis appears on two tracks for the bassist's third solo date on the progressive Portugal-based label, Clean Feed Records.
