Per la realizzazione di Epicenter of Your Dreams la formazione si allarga a quartetto con l'aggiunta del sassofonista Mark Turner. Insomma una formazione di grande prestigio che curiosamente ...

John Escreet: Departure No. 1

Read "John Escreet: Departure No. 1" reviewed by John Chacona

by John Chacona

When you first listen to “Departure No. 1," from John Escreet's The epicenter of your dreams (Blue Room Music, 2024), you might well ask, Who wrote that? At once familiar but tantalizingly hard to pin down, the composition sounds like a Bud Powell tune or maybe an undiscovered Herbie Nichols gem, perhaps in an edition by ...

Dan Rosenboom: Polarity

Read "Polarity" reviewed by Jerome Wilson

by Jerome Wilson

On this album, trumpeter Dan Rosenboom and his quartet engage in a free-wheeling session which comes off as a modern update of Wayne Shorter releases such as The All-Seeing Eye (Blue Note, 1966). He engages in playful genre-crossing and experimentation here which incorporate the sensibilities of hip-hop and ambient music as well as modern jazz.

Dan Rosenboom: Polarity

Read "Polarity" reviewed by Pat Youngspiel

by Pat Youngspiel

Recently, Los Angeles-based trumpeter Dan Rosenboom has been experimenting with somewhat freer and edgier realms of improvisation, giving doomy metal influences a go on Trio Subliminal 2 (Orenda Records, 2022), and indulging high-energy trio interplay with plenty of delay effects and other sonic manipulation on Refraction (Orenda Records, 2021). Not to mention the opulent The Complete ...

John Escreet: Seismic Shift

Read "Seismic Shift" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto

John Escreet's recording Seismic Shift, the pianist's first trio recording, might be the case for the return of warning labels on packaging. Not that there are explicit lyrics or violent images, it is just that the 52 minutes of music contained here are quite tempestuous and unrelenting. By design. Escreet is known for his ...
