by Ian Patterson
Following the co-led outing with Greg Osby that was Sonic Halo (Challenge Records, 2014), Dutch saxophonist Tineke Postma took a step back from her solo career to raise a family. In the intervening years there were two trio albums with Nathalie Loriers, but Freya-- Postma's debut on Edition Records--marks her comeback as a leader. Inspiration comes ...
Rez Abbasi: Django-shift
by Friedrich Kunzmann
Talking about shifting. American guitarist Rez Abbasi seems capable of shifting shape and changing form from one project to the next like a creature from a J.R.R. Tolkien adventure—almost beyond recognition. If it weren't for the guitarist's inspired fret fingerings and rushed scale runs giving him his utterly unique spark. Between much praised quintet ...
Rez Abbasi: Django-shift
by Karl Ackermann
Django Reinhardt's music is so ubiquitous that it's easy to forget his career was relatively brief. The gypsy guitarist/composer had recorded hundreds of 78s and acetates before he died of a stroke in 1953 at age forty-three. On many early sides, he played a six-string banjo-guitar hybrid tuned in the standard tuning of a guitar. Norman ...

Rudresh Mahanthappa: Hero Trio
by Troy Dostert
After topping so many best-of-year lists with his extraordinary quintet on 2015's Bird Calls (ACT), alto saxophonist Rudresh Mahanthappa has gone into trio mode. His gritty, self-released Indo-jazz-rock album Agrima (with guitarist Rez Abbasi and drummer Dan Weiss) was one of the highlights of 2017, and now he's at it again, this time with bassist François ...

Josh Deutsch/Nico Soffiato Trio: Redshift

The longstanding partnership between trumpeter Josh Deutsch and guitarist Nico Soffiato, placed in flattering light on the ever- welcoming Time Gels (Self-produced, 2011) and Reverse Angle (Self-Produced, 2015), continues to bear fruit with Redshift, the pair's first album for the Italian nusica.org imprint. Focusing on the trio format by working alternately with two of the jazz ...
