Whit Dickey/Kirk Knuffke: Fierce Silence

Read "Fierce Silence" reviewed by Mark Corroto


The fitness instructor kept yelling, “feel the burn, feel the burn." After an hour of aerobic exercise, that was not a difficult task. A much easier and painless way to experience the same fire is to listen to just one track of Fierce Silence, a collection of improvised duos between drummer Whit Dickey and cornetist Kirk ...

Dominic Duval: Follow Your Melody

Read "Dominic Duval: Follow Your Melody" reviewed by Maxim Micheliov


In memory of Dominic Duval: 1945-2016. This article was first published in October 2010. Bassist Dominic Duval is a mystery to many—even to those interested in free music. Seemingly emerging out of nowhere in the mid-1990s, over the course of 15 years he has built a formidable discography, firmly establishing him as one of ...

Merzbow/Keiji Haino/Balazs Pandi: An Untroublesome Defencelessness

Read "An Untroublesome Defencelessness" reviewed by Mark Corroto


The often repeated refrain to a complaint about music is, “If it's too loud, then you're too old," doesn't apply to An Untroublesome Defencelessness by Merzbow, Keiji Haino, and Balázs Pándi. You probably should just agree, it is too loud. With any Merzbow record, it just seems to never gets old. Of late, Merzbow's, ...

Ivo Perelman: Breaking Point

Read "Breaking Point" reviewed by Glenn Astarita

Five By Five - More Love From Ivo Perelman

Read "Five By Five - More Love From Ivo Perelman" reviewed by Mark Corroto


2015 saw six releases by tenor saxophonist Ivo Perelman. It's early in 2016, and we already have five new releases. At this pace, one can only hope for five more. Certainly, noting the combinations of players presented here and the high level of improvisation, there could easily be ten more sessions with ten different permutations. Or, ...

Matthew Shipp/Michael Bisio: Live in Seattle

Read "Live in Seattle" reviewed by Mark Corroto


The Italian renaissance sculptor, painter, architect, poet, and scientist Michelangelo di Lodovico is often quoted, when referring to his 17-foot sculpted masterpiece David, “every block of stone has a statue inside it and it is the task of the sculptor to discover it." The same thought comes to mind when two musical sculptors chip away at ...

Ivo Perelman: Villa Lobos Suite

Read "Villa Lobos Suite" reviewed by Maurizio Zerbo


L'arte del depistaggio, secondo un sax e due viole. Si potrebbe definire così questo avventuroso CD, che già nel titolo tende a spiazzare l'ascoltatore. Questa inusuale disposizione timbrica dà luogo ad un percorso destrutturante, che peraltro non prevede titoli per le composizioni proposte. In primo piano l'improvvisazione atematica con libere cellule melodiche, che ...

Ivo Perelman/Matthew Shipp: Complementary Colors

Read "Complementary Colors" reviewed by Mark Corroto


When a new batch of Ivo Perelman discs are released, yes he releases music from multiple groups on multiple discs, it is always wise to start with his duets with pianist Matthew Shipp. They've collaborated now for over twenty years, in duo, trio, quartet, and quintet settings. Their development of sound, each player's individual sound, has ...
