Mason Bates: Stereo Is King
by Karl Ackermann
Modern composer and electronics artist Mason Bates is equally comfortable in the worlds of new classical and hip hop. Working closely with the symphony orchestras of San Francisco and Chicago, he has been a driving force in escalating the role of electronics in the orchestra setting. To that end, Bates has put years into the study ...
Phillip Blackburn: Music of Shadows
by Karl Ackermann
UK native and multi-media artist Phillip Blackburn approaches the musical structures on Music of Shadows as part naturalist, part classical composer and brings the two elements together in an avant-garde narrative. Blackburn's works have been performed in numerous outdoor settings and art galleries as well as on traditional stages. The physical locations of performances are an ...
Peter Kerlin Octet: Salamander
by Claudio Bonomi
Ormai la legge del crossover o della commistione tra generi regna sovrana. Se al jazz, ma la regola vale per qualsiasi genere, non si sommano almeno un paio di ritmi e sonorità presi da qualche altra fonte musicale si è decisamente fuori moda.

Awakening Orchestra: Vol. 1: This Is Not the Answer
by Karl Ackermann
Connecticut native Kyle Saulnier is both a life-long student and a working teacher of jazz.

Jason Kao Hwang / Ayman Fanous: Zilzal
by Karl Ackermann
The duo release--Zilzal--further defines the evolution of two master musician/composers pursing the most imaginative alternatives to the status quo. In recent years, the inventive violinist/violist Jason Kao Hwang has been fully invested in exploring diverse compositional territories. His Burning Bridge octet is now firmly entrenched as a bellwether of genre-defying modern music with a distinct jazz ...
Peter Kerlin Octet: Salamander

Brooklyn continues to build on its reputation as a breeding ground for some of the finest modern jazz in the Northeast. Bassist Peter Kerlin adds to that distinction with Salamander, an octet powered collection with a very unique structure that includes three basses, double vibraphones and a string trio.
