The Oscillators: Beat Tectonics

by Ian Patterson
September 20, 2009

The Oscillators is a four-piece instrumental band from Washington, DC. As quartets go it' slightly unusual as the front line is led by saxophone and electric guitar, something in the vein of Scandinavian group Jazz Kamikaze, though it's difficult to think of many other groups who employ such a tandem. Beat Tectonics, the band's debut, was ...

Il 15 marzo 1967, quando Leandro “Gato" Barbieri incide le quattro pagine che compongono In Search of the Mystery, egli ha da poco iniziato ad essere oggetto di curiosità nei circoli del jazz d'avanguardia, sia in Europa, dove -proveniente dall'Argentina- ha vissuto alcuni anni, che negli Stati Uniti.

Gato Barbieri: In Search of the Mystery

by Warren Allen
July 19, 2009

This is not dinner music, nor is it Last Tango in Paris, though there are actually hints of tango flitting around the mix. This is Gato Barbieri with a little extra scream in his step, moving out in the free vein of the '60s avant-garde--loud, brash, unpolished and unapologetic. Showing the influence of his work with ...

Gato Barbieri: In Search of the Mystery

by Jerry D'Souza
July 7, 2009

Leandro “Gato" Barbieri has traversed a wide range of musical styles over his career. His earliest recordings counted Don Cherry, Abdullah Ibrahim and Roswell Rudd as collaborators. He was quick to settle into the avant-garde before exploring South American music. He later went on to play pop fanned tunes and disco music. Fortunately these commercialized transgressions ...

Gato Barbieri: In Search of the Mystery

by Raul d'Gama Rose
July 6, 2009

Gato Barbieri winds up and uncorks a meandering apocalyptic shout that begins with a growling, sinewy tenor and often returns there via a continuous spiral of bell-like primal screeches. He is probing, poking the tones of the tenor and searching madly for a timbral key to unlock a hidden route to harmonic peace. On this seminal ...

Ramiro Musotto: Sudaka

by Jeff Dayton-Johnson
December 3, 2008

Musical impresario Ramiro Musotto is Argentine-born and Brazil-based--argento-brazuka, he would say. His Civilizacao & Barbarye (Los Anos Luz/Circular Moves, 2006) won critical acclaim for its mix of traditional South American musical forms with electronica. Perhaps in response to that record's favorable reception, his 2003 debut effort Sudaka has been reissued on the Fast Horse label.
