Mick Goodrick: In Pas(s)ing
by Jack Kenny
Let us start with the recording itself. For this album the quality of the recording is as important as the playing.

Sun Chung of Red Hook Records: Listening at the Threshold
by Tyran Grillo
Sun Chung's Red Hook Records has, in just five years, become one of the most quietly consequential imprints in contemporary creative music.

Soojin Suh: Prism of Existence
by Mike Jurkovic
Of the many good things to be said about the raucous Prism of Existence--with Korean drummer Soojin Suh, double bassist Hoo Kim and Jaehun Kang--the least is that the kick-off, Uncertainty I -Everlasting Peace" just may be the most rambunctious opening track as any to be heard in a good long while.
