Industrial Jazz Group: Industrial Jazz A Go Go!
by Rex Butters
Andrew Durkin and the Industrial Jazz Group release a circus of musical styles on Industrial Jazz A Go Go!, with soloists flying through fiery hoops, arrangements making death-defying leaps, and Durkin himself flooring the clown car. They cover so much musical material, sometimes within a single piece, that they threaten to appeal to everyone. Yet despite ...

Industrial Jazz Group: The Star Chamber
by Rex Butters
The Industrial Jazz Group continues to fight the odds on maintaining a large band, allowing resident composer Andrew Durkin a vehicle for his imaginative flights.

Industrial Jazz Group: The Star Chamber
by Chris May
The Industrial Jazz Group was formed in '00 by pianist/composer Andrew Durkin as a sort of (very sort of) Art Ensemble of Chicago.

Industrial Jazz Group: City of Angles
by William Grim
City of Angles is the second CD from the Industrial Jazz Group, one of the most interesting new jazz ensembles on the West Coast scene. Irony abounds in the offerings from the IJG. First of all, there’s nothing “industrial” at all about their music, so you can put away your underlined copies of Walter Benjamin’s essay ...

the Industrial Jazz Group: Hardcore
by James Nichols
The Industrial Jazz Group has many things going for it. They have gutsy soloists that can intimate both Coleman Hawkins and Eric Dolphy in the same solo. Also, the band includes a very promising tunesmith in pianist Andrew Durkin. They demonstrate marvelous versatility as well, making references to Ornette Coleman, Charles Mingus, Cannonball Adderley, and many ...
