Mattias Risberg's Mining: Live In Stripa

Read "Live In Stripa" reviewed by Mark Corroto


Science is beginning to acknowledge that life on earth probably began under the surface and not in some ocean. Millions of years ago, the atmosphere was so acidic, it could not support life. But underground, the conditions were ripe for single cell organisms to thrive. Today scientists discover bacteria that live nearly a mile underground without ...

David Stackenäs: Bricks

Read "Bricks" reviewed by Glenn Astarita


Hailing from Sweden, David Stackenäs (Per Zanussi Ensemble, Lina Nyberg Band) may be one of the best lesser-known global guitarists out there. Active in jazz and experimental ensembles in Europe and beyond, the artist follows up his previous solo acoustic guitar outing Separator (2009, Found You) with a cunning and at times, mesmeric exposition. In the ...

Hot Four: Eye of the Moose

Read "Eye of the Moose" reviewed by Eyal Hareuveni


The Norwegian-Swedish quartet Hot Four was founded by Norwegian vocal artist Andreas Backer as a vehicle for free-minded, free- improvised, free-chamber textures that float, obviously freely, between elements inspired by European influences, modern jazz and contemporary classical music. Backer wisely chose fearless, experienced and highly versatile improvisers--Norwegian drummer Ståle Liavik Solberg, who studied with him in ...

The Ägg: The Ägg

Read "The Ägg" reviewed by Eyal Hareuveni


Put three electric guitarists, three electric bassists and four drummers in one room all coming from the vibrant Stockholm scene of free improvisation, free jazz and art rock. Let them jam freely, lock in hypnotic grooves that loosely sound like Fela Kuti's Afro-beat bands or worse, like North Korean marching bands on acid, sketch noisy textures ...

Emil Strandberg: Works

Read "Works" reviewed by Eyal Hareuveni


Works is the first album containing compositions by Swedish trumpeter Emil Strandberg. But this is also a highly collaborative work.

The musical expression is equal to sensitive listening and always examines its own formulation, its sound, ...
