Clean Feed Records: Looking Outwards
by Pedro Costa
When Clean Feed first started I never imagined that we would have almost 200 releases after nine years. I guessed that we would put out about two or three records every year and have a hundred CDs released after a lifetime. I think one of the reasons for this thinking was the fact ...
Keefe Jackson Quartet: Seeing You See
by Troy Collins
The vibrant Chicago jazz scene has been home to many impressive young artists, most of whom collaborate in a rotating roster of collective ensembles. This communal approach has yielded a deep pool of talented individuals intimately familiar with each other's working methods, providing them with a sort of regional shorthand. Multi-reedist Keefe Jackson is one such ...
Lawnmover: West
by Troy Collins
Drummer Luther Gray explains in the brief liner notes to West, the debut of his ensemble Lawnmower, that the album is an attempt to reconcile the various genres he has worked in throughout his musical development. From his early days spent in punk bands like Tsunami, to his jazz-oriented work as a sideman with fellow Bostonians ...
Pinton - Kullhammar - Zetterberg - Nordeson: Chant
by AAJ Italy Staff
A Coimbra, patria del fado “accademico," il festival jazz offre sempre una programmazione molto affine all'estetica dell'ottima etichetta portoghese Clean Feed, e in piena sintonia con il suo patron Pedro Costa. Non è la prima volta che formazioni di area svedese pubblicano per Clean Feed registrazioni live fatte al festival: accadde anche per il tenor sassofonista ...
Kirk Knuffke: Amnesia Brown
by AAJ Italy Staff
L'idillio, musicalmente parlando, nasce all'interno della Nublu Orchestra, la formazione diretta ogni lunedì nell'omonimo locale da Lawrence Butch Morris. Knuffke, Wollesen e Wieselman scoprono più di una affinità elettiva ed il trombettista decide di incidere proprie composizioni utilizzando il talento di Wieselman, sia al clarinetto che alla chitarra, dando vita così ad una sorta di doppio ...
Will Holshouser Trio with Bernardo Sassetti: Palace Ghosts and Drunken Hymns
by Mark Corroto
Inspired by the sights, sounds, and people of Lisbon, Portugal, American accordionist Will Holshouser collaborates with Portuguese pianist Bernardo Sassetti on a recording that is equal parts jazz (European and American), folk (again European and American--both North and South American), and chamber music. While it may take an ethnomusicologist to sort out all the roots and ...
Samuel Blaser Quartet: Pieces of Old Sky
by Eyal Hareuveni
Swiss-born, Berlin-based trombonist Samuel Blaser is a musician to watch. He has a unique and personal vision, imaginative scope of articulation, and an ability to communicate and surprise with his sonic discoveries and ideas. This excellent new recording, his best so far, impresses more with every listening. The album was recorded in New York with three ...
Sei Miguel: Esfingico - Suite for a jazz combo
by AAJ Italy Staff
Più o meno tutti attivi artisticamente dagli inizi degli anni Ottanta, i cinque primattori di Esfingico lavorano con le vele rivolte al vento dell'avanguardia. Alla guida Sei Miguel, carismatico trombettista ma più che altro creatore ed analizzatore di nuovi suoni di quel particolare micro-universo a se stante che risponde al nome di Portogallo/Lisbona. Nato nel 1961 ...
Tony Malaby's Apparitions: Voladores
by AAJ Italy Staff
Se mai ce ne fosse ancora bisogno, questa incisione conferma Tony Malaby come un gigante tra i sassofonisti della generazione dei quaranta/cinquantenni. Troppo spesso considerato musicista per musicisti o side-man di lusso nonostante una manciata di album a proprio nome di tutto rispetto, Malaby in questo Voladores mostra tutto il suo valore di compositore, di solista ...
Jorrit Dijkstra: Pillow Circles
by Troy Collins
An international summit meeting, Pillow Circles joins four American jazz musicians with four Dutch improvisers. Similar in feel to his Flatlands Collective, this effort finds Dutch expatriate and multi-instrumentalist Jorrit Dijkstra paying homage to a handful of artists who have inspired him, with each piece dedicated to an individual. Bringing an empathetic familiarity to ...
