Mostly Other People Do the Killing: Setting the Record Straight
by Troy Collins
Mostly Other People Do the Killing is frequently typecast as one of today's most humorously irreverent young jazz groups, based in no small part on their provocative name, which was inspired by a quote attributed to inventor Leon Theremin--a survivor of the Soviet gulag who exonerated Stalin because “mostly other people did the killing." Bassist and ...

Han Bennink: Bennink & Co.
by AAJ Italy Staff
Nel prezioso volumetto Han Bennink - Ritratto d'artista, pubblicato nel 1991, Filippo Bianchi ha scritto: “Ogni sua performance è una sorta di composizione istantanea, sospesa tra senso e nonsenso: un processo di associazioni libere fra citazioni, suggerimenti della memoria, sentimenti, costruzioni progressive, spunti momentanei che attingono alle fonti più disparate". E più avanti: “Uomo felice e ...

Hammer Klavier Trio: Rocket In The Pocket
by Dan Bilawsky

The music that they present completely erases the dividing lines between traditional piano trios, hard hitting threesomes like The Bad Plus, and genre-blending Euro-stars like the late Esbjörn Svensson Trio. This band has all ...
