Indra Rios-Moore: Where Do We Go From Here?
by Jakob Baekgaard
Death is not a possibility, it is a certainty, and yet it is almost impossible to comprehend that life must end. The miracle of life happens, and as soon as we are born, death enters as an invisible companion. It is a companion that we might ignore most of our life until we cannot. But what ...
Marion Brown: Three For Shepp To Gesprachsfetzen Revisited
by Chris May
"It is often those we hear the least that we should listen to the most." So wrote the Guadeloupean pianist Jonathan Jurion on the release of his album Le Temps Fou: The Music Of Marion Brown (Komos, 2019). Just why Marion Brown has become such a rarely acknowledged figure is unclear. He possessed ...

The Complete Obscure Records Collection 1975-1978
by Chris May
The first ever CD box set gathering the complete 10-album catalogue of Brian Eno's Obscure Records has been released by Italian-based label Dialogo.

Eraldo Bernocchi: Like A Fire That Consumes All Before It
by John Ephland
RareNoise is one of those labels, one of those rare (no pun intended) labels, where format and style have become irrelevant. A recent sampling of the soon-to-be historic label should suffice in telling their ongoing musical odyssey. Pit one against the other: 2018's Anguish, featuring among others, Nordic phenom Mats Gustafsson in a wild-haired hoedown of ...
Chat Noir: Nine Thoughts For One Word
by John Ephland
There's something about RareNoise Records that keeps you on your toes. Listen to any title side by side, and you're likely to end up scratching your head, if not enjoying a gentle smile or subtle rhapsody. Okay, some of the music can be scabrous, perhaps unlistenable. But guess what? It all fits under the RN moniker, ...
The Inner Spectrum of Variables
by Enrico Bettinello
Ok, proviamoci. Proviamo a parlare di questo disco uscendo dalle convenzioni che di solito si adottano quando ci si pone di fronte a un percorso musicale come quello di Tyshawn Sorey. Sorey non dovrebbe avere bisogno di troppe presentazioni. Oddio, magari in un'Italia del jazz mediamente poco curiosa di quello che sta oltre ...
The Pitch: Frozen Orchestra (Amsterdam)
by Glenn Astarita
Frozen Orchestra (Amsterdam) is an appropriate moniker for these two works performed live at an Amsterdam venue by the core Berlin-based quartet The Pitch, with assistance from a combination of six woodwinds and strings performers. With inadvertent semblances to minimalist composer Morton Feldman, the music is largely about ever-so-subtle shifts in sound design and pitch. As ...
