Nacho Arimany and World-Flamenco Septet: Silence-Light

Read "Silence-Light" reviewed by Mark F. Turner


The mysterious and beautiful art-form of Spanish Flamenco music is re-interpreted in composer/percussionist Nacho Arimany's, Silence-Light, a unique listening experience that features the Madrilenian and his World-Flamenco Septet. The genre has been covered before within various idioms, and while the sounds are familiar (precision handclapping and foot-stamping) there is more than what is heard as Arimany ...

Logan Richardson: Cerebral Flow

Read "Cerebral Flow" reviewed by Laurel Gross


The label Fresh Sound New Talent is aptly named in regard to the young alto saxophonist it introduces on this recording. Logan Richardson has a fresh sound, accommodating enough to please the adventurous but not so out it canâ????t be enjoyed by general jazz listeners who want to explore new territory. Despite its brainy title, Cerebral ...

Samo Salamon: Government Cheese

Read "Government Cheese" reviewed by Budd Kopman


It might be easy to imagine two entirely different reactions to guitarist Samo Salamon's latest, very fine effort Government Cheese. The first, coming from someone who has not heard him before, might center around the angular, distortion tinged guitar, the driving near-rock rhythms and the wide variety of emotions that whiplash the listener. ...

Hat: Hi Ha

Read "Hi Ha" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Arriva dalla regione catalana questo originale quartetto che mette il jazz insieme ad influenze più leggere come il pop, il rock, il reggae. In modo sempre originale ed interessante, grazie anche ad un uso intenso del Fender Rodhes, e ad una bellissima interazione di questo con la chitarra (a tratti dalla timbrica friselliana) di Matas. Le ...

Mikkel Ploug Group: Mikkel Ploug Group feat. Mark Turner

Read "Mikkel Ploug Group feat. Mark Turner" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


E' un disco dal colore compatto quello del chitarrista danese Mikkel Ploug. Si concentra sulla ricerca di una sonorità definita e riconoscibile e offre all'ascoltatore diversi temi interessanti. Per questo album d'esordio il giovane musicista ha voluto accanto a sé il sax tenore di Mark Turner. Le influenze coltraniane del fiatista si fanno sentire, ma il ...
