Omer Avital: Arrival

Read "Arrival" reviewed by Ernest Barteldes


Though the picture on this disc's cover might bring to mind some kind of 1970s folk-rock star, the music inside has nothing to do with that. The Israeli-born bassist weaves through a variety of feels, from simple funky beats to more complex rhythmical patterns with some Latin-inspired moments in between. On “Big Time, ...

Luis Rodrìguez: U-Turn

Read "U-Turn" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


E' un compositore, Luis Rodrìguez, e tiene subito a precisarlo nelle note di copertina. E il percorso dei suoi sax non lascia spazio ai dubbi, già dal primo ascolto. Non ci sono eccessi in questo album d'esordio. Anzi, è un bel lavoro di scrittura musicale, a volte disegnato attorno a una linea eseguita all'unisono da piano, ...

Peter Van Huffel: Silvester Battlefield

Read "Silvester Battlefield" reviewed by Budd Kopman


Armed with a sharp tone and attack, keen rhythmic sense and a wry compositional attitude, saxophonist Peter Van Huffel makes one sit up and listen on Silvester Battlefield. The album is brimming with ideas that manage to sound abstract in their tonality and phrasing while, at that same time, being extremely logical. Hardly ...

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 ...

Michael Felberbaum: Sweetsalt

Read "Sweetsalt" reviewed by Mark F. Turner


Playing clubs in Rome at the age of fifteen, learning and performing with many U.S. artists, and leading his own bands in Paris--Michael Felberbaum knows a thing or two about modern jazz guitar. Not only does he know a little something, but you can hear it in his playing with music that is ...

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 ...
