About James McKain

Results for pages tagged "FMP Records"...

Musician

McKain is a saxophonist living in the heart of Brooklyn, New York. He is largely associated with free jazz and freely improvised music. He is less interested in these mediums less as stable genres (though: guilty as charged when it comes to his relatively Catholic listening predilections), and more of a method. He finds that the best improvised music synthesizes form -- as a collective activity the best moments do not keep one beholden to form, but rather one can recognize patterns in which one can change the hierarchy and structure of the music being played in real time itself. McKain believes form is a malleable concept.

Fred Van Hove: Piano Solo

Read "Piano Solo" reviewed by Mark Corroto

Belgian pianist Fred Van Hove has always been identified with the European free music movement, but he also stands outside the cadre of players that formed the FMP label. This rerelease (first time on CD) of two solo LPs, Prosper (1981) and Die Letzte (1986), reaffirm his personality and uniqueness as an improvising player.

Peter Brötzmann: Wolk In Hosen

In a blindfold test--and not knowing he was but 11 years old when this solo session was recorded in 1976--the sound heard on Wolk In Hosen might be mistaken for that of Swedish saxophonist Mats Gustafsson. But no, it is, indeed, Gustafsson's hero and musical role model, the fire-breathing Peter Brötzmann. Also released as ...
