The Rempis Percussion Quartet: Cash And Carry
by John Sharpe
Ornette Coleman was one of the first to use two drummers in a smaller ensemble for his seminal double quartet Free Jazz (Atlantic, 1961).

While the format has become much more widespread as ...
Mark Helias - Tony Malaby - Tom Rainey: The Signal Maker
by Stefano Merighi
Mark Helias è persona cordiale, generosa, empatica. Un carattere aperto, bilanciato tuttavia da un rigore assoluto che caratterizza la sua attività di bandleader e di contrabbassista.

Juan Pablo Carletti / Tony Malaby / Christopher Hoffman: Niño/Brujo
by John Sharpe
For his debut album, NYC-based Argentinian drummer Juan Pablo Carletti has made some wise choices, even before one considers the music. Foremost among those is the selection of saxophonist Tony Malaby to front his trio. Malaby has a compelling track record of energising such threesomes, as evidenced by his 14 year tenure in bassist Mark Helias' ...
