The Resonance Ensemble: Kafka In Flight
by John Sharpe
It may subvert expectations to note that the resonance" in this group's name is with the big bands of the 1940s and '50s, rather than any forbidding improv austerity. Kafka In Flight, the third release by Chicago reedman/composer Ken Vandermark's multinational aggregation, follows the Live In Lviv (Not Two, 2008) LP and eponymous ten-CD set (Not ...

The Rempis Percussion Quartet: Montreal Parade
by Dan Bilawsky

While Cline's band uses a moniker that lacks ...
Ballister: Bastard String
by Mark Corroto
There is something special about watching jugglers perform. It is a marvel how the juggler can seemingly interrupt the laws of gravity at will, keeping balls (or chainsaws) suspended through sheer tenacity. Such it is when listening to Ballister perform the three lengthy improvised pieces on Bastard String.As the juggler doesn't rely on willpower to ...
